I am reaching for gold, (but gold is just a stone)
The stone rolled away, (away and he was gone)
And gone was the fear, (the fear was in my eyes)
Eyes that can't see. (anything but gold)

Man is destined to fail, (I will fail on my own)
And own up to fear, (the fear to be alone)
Alone in my head, (and headed for a fall)
A fall without wings. (without wings, we will fail)

One thing I know, (there is faith beneath the fear)
One thing I see, (I can see it through the tears)
One thing I feel, (I can feel you in my heart)
One thing I know.

But I still believe, (we are ashes in the wind)
Like wind in our face, (we face up to the truth)
And truth is a word, (a word that comes from God)
And God is alive. (and that I still believe)

In so many ways, (ways that are beyond)
Our ability to see, (we are tiny grains of sand)
Each one precious in love, (no matter what we do)
Or how many times. (we turn our back on you)

One thing I know, (there is faith beneath the fear)
One thing I see, (I can see it through the tears)
One thing I feel, (I can feel you in my heart)
One thing I know.

There is grace for man to fail,
One thing I see, (there is peace behind the veil)
One thing I feel, (I am cherished, I am loved)
One thing I know, (there's a way to rise above)
One this I see, (there's a road to set us free)
One thing I feel, (and I can feel serenity)
One thing I know,
One thing I see,
(fade)
