Varo rukoilemasta sitä mitä haluat, saatat nimittäin
saada sen mitä tarvitset:
Joka pyytää menestystä, voi saada vastoinkäymisiä
oppiakseen, mitä on sisäinen menestys.
Joka pyytää vahvuutta, saattaa saada heikkoutta
ymmärtääkseen tarvita rakkautta.
Joka pyytää terveyttä, saa kenties viisautta
ymmärtää sairautensa sanoma.
Joka pyytää ystäviä, saa yksinäisyyttä löytääkseen itsensä.
Joka pyytää rahaa, voi saada köyhyyttä löytääkseen onnellisuuden.
Joka etsii valtaa, saa pettymyksiä löytääkseen palvelun.
Joka pyytää toisen muuttumista, saa lisää vaikeuksia
ymmärtääkseen muuttua itse.
Joka etsii Jumalaa itsensä ulkopuolelta, voi saada
kärsimystä löytääkseen hänet sisältään.
Tommy Hellsten kirjassaan Tähän olen tullut -Kirja merkityksen löytämisestä
Inner peace is hard to find
Peace of heart and peace of mind
Feels like I'm running all the time
Like I'm at war inside
I've been fighting all my life
How can we be ourselves
If we don't know who we are
I can't blame myself on anyone else's time
I can't blame myself on anyone else's time
There's gotta be a reason for the pain
There's gotta be a reason why it rains when I'm alone
There's gotta be a reason that I'm longing for a justice
I ain't ever seen
A water that could make us clean, yeah
How can we be ourselves
If we don't know who we are
I can't blame myself on anyone else's time
I can't blame myself on anyone else's time
I can't blame myself on anyone else's time
The window of my soul is so unclean
Shattered by the vices and the violence that I've seen
Purity of heart is to will one thing
But I've got a lot on my mind
Yeah maybe I'm a mess inside
How can we be ourselves
If we don't know who we are
I'm looking for the one that made me
That made me
That made me
I'm looking for the One
That made me
That made me

Peace of heart and peace of mind
Feels like I'm running all the time
Like I'm at war inside
I've been fighting all my life
How can we be ourselves
If we don't know who we are
I can't blame myself on anyone else's time
I can't blame myself on anyone else's time
There's gotta be a reason for the pain
There's gotta be a reason why it rains when I'm alone
There's gotta be a reason that I'm longing for a justice
I ain't ever seen
A water that could make us clean, yeah
How can we be ourselves
If we don't know who we are
I can't blame myself on anyone else's time
I can't blame myself on anyone else's time
I can't blame myself on anyone else's time
The window of my soul is so unclean
Shattered by the vices and the violence that I've seen
Purity of heart is to will one thing
But I've got a lot on my mind
Yeah maybe I'm a mess inside
How can we be ourselves
If we don't know who we are
I'm looking for the one that made me
That made me
That made me
I'm looking for the One
That made me
That made me
