If You Really Knew - Out of Eden Lyrics
What you don't know can lead
You to the extremes
Shining health and youth all I need
You fear to be caught limping
And you lose your place
And leaning on the Everlasting Arms
Is not your taste
Maybe you've heard those stories
Laughed at what you saw on T.V.
Felt disgust as he was using excuse for bigotry
But I've got to tell you that's
Not what it's all about
Cuz the truth you know will turn you around
Chorus
If you really knew
You would change your mind
If you knew the God I love
You would have the time
If you take the chance
I know you would find
Everything you need in love of another kind
I've too been hurt by those who
Claim to know the way
It was crazy than two faces,
Like night and day
But you don't stop believing
Cuz you've once been burned
In everything there's a lesson learned
Man isn't perfect
There is just one perfect son
So much more love than, than
The one that you've been shown
How long's it gonna take for you to realize
How much that you would open your eyes
Chorus
I apologize to you
On behalf of the untrue
Becuz the God I love would
Never do the things they do
Mercy and compasssion
On the right and on the left
If you keep it in the world, then
You have spent
Your last....
Too hard to see what would
You might decide, and
Stop using fear to hide behind
Chorus (2x)
God is waiting if you only
Knew....
God's love; if you only knew....
