| I was looking for a very best friend, |
| someone to stick with me until the very end |
| I was searching for a place to fit in, |
| with someone I could trust, someone to understand. |
| I was reaching for a hand to hold, |
| Somewhere I could go so I didn’t feel alone. |
| That’s when You opened up my eyes. |
| Right there I was changed, |
| Then I realised |
| You are the real thing |
| You are the only one |
| This is the real dream, knowing I am loved |
| You are the real thing and I’ll never give You up |
| Never let You go |
| Oh no oh no Jesus |
| Oh no oh no |
| I can’t rely on everything I hear, |
| everything I see as truth I can believe |
| So many people got their own kinda spin |
| They just flip the words to make it make sense. |
| I want something, something in my life |
| Something genuine, that only You can give |
| Like love, like peace and joy and hope |
| The more I seek the more I know |
| You are the real thing |
| You are the only one |
| This is the real dream, knowing I am loved |
| You are the real thing and I’ll never give You up |
| Never let You go |
| Oh no oh no Jesus |
| Oh no oh no |
| You are the real thing |
| That’s just who You are |
| And You have changed me |
| 'Cause You live inside my heart |
| I know the real thing |
| And I’ll never give You up |
| Never let You go |
| Oh no, oh no Jesus |
| So unshakable, solid as a rock |
| So reliable, everything this world is not |
| You are the real thing |
| So unshakable, solid as a rock |
| Everything I really want |
| You are the real thing |
| Never give You up |
| Never let You go |
| That’s when You opened up my eyes |
| Right there I was changed |
| Then I realised |
| You are the real thing |
