It's like a blind man in a dark room
Looking for a black cat that isn't there
It's like a man overboard in the high seas
Swimming for his life to find land anywhere

Everybody knows emptiness
Everywhere they’re all on a quest
But nobody seems to know
The reason for their restlessness
Everybody’s lost in aimlessness
But somebody brought hope (to hopelessness)
Now everybody needs to know
That they can know
The master of the quest

It's like Don Quixote on his journey
Trusty side-kick by his side El Dorado bound
It's all around you could it be you
People searching, are you searching for what I've found?

Don't you know He’s at your door
He is the one you're looking for
Everybody’s lost in aimlessness
But somebody brought hope (to hopelessness)
Now everybody needs to know
That Jesus came to bring them rest

He’s the one you’re looking for…

Behind the Song:
"Everyone is on a quest. We were born with it. We are all looking for hope and most of us are looking in the wrong place. The song says that we don’t have to be on a “Quest.” Jesus is standing at the door knocking. If we open the door, He will come in and the quest of hope will be over." - John Waller
