If You Only Knew

D A   A G     A G


[Verse 1]
G                   D    G      
 By my grandfather's bed, my 
      D
mother is reading
G     D              Em    F#m G
 Psalm 62, God is our refuge
  G            D              G  
 My grandfather stirs, could it 
        Bm
be, he is wak-ing
G         F#m          Em       
 One final time, he has 
        A
something to say


[Chorus]
D           A            
 If you only knew what lies 
    G
a-waiting
   Em             Bm             
 If you could only see what I can 
A
see
   Bm             A              
 If you could only hear the music
Dsus4    D
 playing
Continues after the ad
           G                   A
 The angels singing sweet victo-ry
    D           G     D           
 Oh, if you only knew, if you only 
Bm
knew
G        A        G   D G/B
 How much he loves you


[Verse 2]
G                   D   G       
 By my grandfather's bed, my 
      D
mother is broken
G     Bm         Em            F#m G
 Psalm 17, O God, I call on you
                    D    G        
 She doesn't want to hear any 
       Bm       G
words about leav-ing
               F#m             
 My grandfather says, "Fear not, 
Em                   G     
this is my time, and into his 
             A
presence I'll fly"


[Chorus]
D           A            
 If you only knew what lies 
    G
a-waiting
   Em             Bm             
 If you could only see what I can 
A
see
   Bm             A              
 If you could only hear the music
Dsus4 D
 playing
           G                   A
 The angels singing sweet victo-ry
    D           G     D           
 Oh, if you only knew, if you only 
Bm
knew
G        A        G    D
 How much he loves you
