Lyrics

The lyrics are copyright so cannot be reproduced here. But they are currently available on this website. A rough outline is:

Solo or chorus:
I know the plans I have for you, says the Lord:
plans of fullness, not of harm;
to give you a future and a hope.

1.  After a time has gone by, then I will visit you,
fulfill my promise to you and bring you back.

2.  You will seek Me. And find Me,
When you seek me with all of your heart,
I will be found by you
