I've waited for so long
Thinking the perfect love would happen by
Dreaming of a picture I had painted
I wanted so much for this love to be mine
But all along, I felt something deep inside
Saying there is more than fantasy
Suddenly I realized

It's real
I finally found a love that's real
It's a fact, not a fantasy
He's showed me that He cares for me
It's real
I never knew how real
Love could make me feel
If real love's just a dream to you
He can make your dreams come true
It's real

I wanted to feel a love so true
Thinking if I waited long enough
I'd feel it through and through
But once I realized
I could be complete and free
I let Him change my world
He helped me believe in me, yeah
I needed someone to take my hurt away
Jesus cared enough to show me
New love everyday
It's real
I finally found a love that's real
It's a fact, not a fantasy
He's showed me that He cares for me
It's real
I never knew how real
Love could make me feel
If real love's just a dream to you
He can make your dreams come true
It's real, yeah
(Oh, it's real)

Oh, Lord, because You've shown me real love
(It's real)
I don't have anymore
(Oh, it's real)
'Cause You've shown me real love, yeah
(Oh, it's real)

It's real
Oh, I finally found a love that's real
It's a fact, not a fantasy
He's showed me that He cares for me
It's real
I never knew how real
Love could make me feel
If real love's just a dream to you
He can make your dreams come true
It's real
