Real Thing lyrics

I can dream about heaven constantly
Both day and night
I can let my mind drift away
To a better place, a better time
Though there's nothing wrong
With thinking about forever by and by
All the while millions
Are still searching for a light

Maybe it is time we take a look
At here and now
Maybe we can change the destiny
Of a world that's crying out
For the truth we take for granted
Is too often left unsaid
We can get so heaven minded
That sometimes we forget

That we're living in a real world
With real hurt and real pain
And all we really need is the real thing
When we look beyond our circ*mstance
And face reality
We'll realize that all we really need
Is just to see
Jesus in a real world
There are days when I look around
And I feel like hope is gone
There are times my heart is torn between
Who is right and what is wrong
There are causes I believe in
There are things I'll never change
But I'm finding all that matters
Is there's just one truth
One truth that remains

'Cause we're living in a real world
With real hurt and real pain
And all we really need is the real thing
When we look beyond our circ*mstance
And face reality
We'll realize that all we really need
Is just to see
Jesus in a real world
Jesus in a real world

'Cause we're living in a real world
With real hurt and real pain
And all we really need is the real thing
When we look beyond our circ*mstance
And face reality
We'll realize that all we really need
Is just to see
Jesus in a real world
Jesus in a real world
Jesus in a real world
Every boy and every girl
Everybody in the world
Jesus is a real thing
Whoa, Jesus in a real world
Every woman, every man
Everybody understands
Jesus is a real thing, real thing
Ooh, yeah

Every boy and every girl
Everybody in the world
Jesus is a real thing
Every woman, every man
Everybody understands
Jesus is a real thing, real thing...
