"IF"
If I would tell you all thats hidden inside of me,
would you still hang around or just leave me be?
My child, if you would tell me all thats hidden inside of you, I'd promise to hang around,
and never leave or forsake you!
If I would tell you all thats hidden in the past,
could this friendship really last?
My child, theres no need to tell me, I know all about your past, and still our friendship throughout eternity will last!
If I would tell you all my fears, would you stay and help dry those tears?
My child, without telling Me, I know your fears, and I am here to wipe away all your tears!
If I would tell you all the pain inside, would you help me find a way to make it subside?
I know your pain that dwells inside, and I want you to know, I am the One that will make them subside!
If I would tell you all that I feel, would you help me to see what is really real?
My child, if you would tell me all that you feel, I would show you whats really real!
If I would open my heart and let you in, would you finally just walk away and let this frienship end?
If you would open your heart, and let Me in, I wouldn't walk away, I'd never let this friendship end!
If I would tell you all that I've keeped hidden behind this wall, would you help me find a way to conquer it all?
If you would tell Me all that you've keeped hidden behind this wall, I would say "I am the Mighty One that can conquer it all!"
If I would tell you where all I've been, would you still want and call me your friend?
If you could tell Me where all you have been, I would still want and call you My Dearest Friend!
If you will allow Me, I would take all this, show you love, and set you free!!!
