If Only Songtext

If Only Songtext
If only they had known,
If only they could understand,
If only they had looked into his eyes
To understand what sort of man.
If only they had seen,
If only they had known.
If only they had heard
With open hearts and open minds.
If only they had listened to the words He spoke;
The greatest of all time.
If only they had heard,
If only they had known.
Had I been there, could I stem the tide?
Could I stand my ground and hold on ′til the end?
Or, in my weakness, would I fail the test?
Would I show my faith and prove myself a friend?
If only I could know,
If only I had felt the pain,
How could I do the things I've done?
At times it seems He sacrificed in vain.
If only I could feel,
If only I could know.
If only I could show,
The gratitude I feel inside
Despite my weakness;
Every time I try to change,
His love can′t be denied.
It's hidden in my heart,
It's written in my soul.
Wanna share it with you now.
If only you could know.
If only they could understand,
If only they had looked into his eyes
To understand what sort of man.
If only they had seen,
If only they had known.
If only they had heard
With open hearts and open minds.
If only they had listened to the words He spoke;
The greatest of all time.
If only they had heard,
If only they had known.
Had I been there, could I stem the tide?
Could I stand my ground and hold on ′til the end?
Or, in my weakness, would I fail the test?
Would I show my faith and prove myself a friend?
If only I could know,
If only I had felt the pain,
How could I do the things I've done?
At times it seems He sacrificed in vain.
If only I could feel,
If only I could know.
If only I could show,
The gratitude I feel inside
Despite my weakness;
Every time I try to change,
His love can′t be denied.
It's hidden in my heart,
It's written in my soul.
Wanna share it with you now.
If only you could know.
