If You Only Knew

If You Only Knew – Recorded 6/11/23 | Lyrics & Music by Chelli Morrison

This song is based on my poem of the same topic – the first and only time (so far) that one of my poems has been transformed into a song.  See my related Facebook post for how this came to be.

Lyrics:
Verse 1
If you only knew
What I’ve been through
You would understand 
The magnitude 
Of how God’s hands
Have pulled me through 
If you only knew 

If you only knew
What was done to me
It might give you cause 
To think differently 
How despite what was
God lifted me
If you only knew 

Chorus
If you only knew 
What God can do 
You’d not waste a minute 
To know Him too
There is no limit
To what God can do
If you only knew

Verse 2 
If you only knew
What I have done
The shame I bore
That left me numb
How God restored
So much He‘s done
If you only knew 

If you only knew
What waters deep
I’ve swam through
With those dear to me
How God rescued
Us from the deep
If you only knew

Chorus
If you only knew 
What God can do 
You’d not waste a minute 
To know Him too
There is no limit
To what God can do
If you only knew

Verse 3 / Ending
If you only knew
What had me bound
The fear that tightly 
Wrapped all around
How God freed me
With grace abound
If you only knew 

If you only knew
What God can do
What He’s done for me
He’ll do for you
There is no thing
That He can’t do
If you only knew

If you only knew
