I Found A Real Love is so traditionally country that it's easy to overlook the pure gospel message it conveys.
Freddie Johnson

The story surrounding the song has to do with what one values in life. When I got saved, became a Christian, that is, my life became focused on Jesus Christ and on His mercy and grace Those are the things I value above all else. Therefore, I write about Him.

I looked for pleasure both near and far, I talked to the moon and wished on a star
Always searchin’ for something good, then I turned around one day and there You stood
Just like the morning, it dawned on me, that I’d ever seen the forest for the trees
Now I know You had been there all along, lovin’ me, good or bad, right or wrong
I found a real love, a stronger than steel love
I found a true, true love in You
We’re sharing’ one heart, we’ll never be apart
Sweet Lord, I’d be lost without You
I will admit that there are times when temptation walks across my mind
Then I remember where I would be, it not for You lovin’ me
You gave me reasons to smile again, you washed away my every sin
Now my heart has finally found it’s home, in Your hands, right where it belongs
