Hi, I remember a sister who sang this  song many years ago.  I think she passed away.  Her name was Pat Gabriel, who sang it with another sister named Lupe.  It's been too long, but thank you for posting this song...

I love this song! Thanks for posting this Howard Higashi classic!

Where’s the answer? There must be more for me.
Is this all to life—an empty vanity?
Day by day and year by year go by.
Am I just a man, a man just born to die?

 	Where’s the answer? Oh I’m so empty
        And plagued by this vanity.
        Deep inside me, My conscience tells me:
        I need another destiny.

I convinced my friends that everything’s alright,
That my life and future and everything’s so bright.
But a sense inside me, my friends, I can’t deny,
Warning deep inside me that I was living a lie.

The world and its glitter left me anxious, dark, and bitter,
Always yearning, my friends, is there something better?
And religion, my friends, is just a Sunday game—
Dead teachings and doctrines will leave you just the same.

Oh God, where are You? I need You desperately!
Oh God, who are You? Why don’t You answer me?
The heavens declare You and the earth shows Your beauty.
But I’m a man. Oh God, I’m so empty!

 	Lord, have mercy! I’m crying for You!
        Please hear! Are you really true?
        I’m dark and lonely. You’re far, far from me.
        Oh Lord, I need You desperately!

One day a friend told me that Jesus is the Lord.
To my great surprise, it’s written in the Word.
They asked me to believe You. Your name I once blasphemed.
Dear Lord, You saved me just by calling on Your name.

        Oh, Lord Jesus, dear Son, so glorious,
        I’m cleansed and You entered into me.
        Oh, Lord Jesus, Your name most precious! 
        Your Person, dear Lord, I now possess.
