If All I Ever Knew

If All I Ever Knew

Believing in the things you cannot see
Is hard sometimes but it's the way for me;
'Cause things I saw began to fall
And slowly fade away;
But things the Lord has shown to me
Are in my heart to stay.

So if all I ever knew is what He told me,
If all I ever saw is what He showed me,
I'd be content to realize He knows me;
And all I'd want to do is live for Him.

Faith is made of things you cannot see,
Things that in my heart I know must be;
To put my faith in things above
Is all that I can do;
In Heaven's hope and Jesus' love
The things I know are true.

So if all I ever knew is what He told me,
If all I ever saw is what He showed me,
If all He wants to do is just control me;
Then all I want to do is live for Him.
