If You Only Knew

C    C7    F Bb F

[Verse 1]
F                                
Have you prayed for a loved one, 
Bb     C/A            Gm
struggling hard with pain
C                                 
You asked the Lord for healing, 
       Bb      C      F
but that healing never came
F                                 
And in spite of all your efforts, 
Bb       C/A              Gm
the good Lord called them Home
      C                         
It's hard to let go, when you're 
   Bb   C       F      Bb  C
trying to hold on

[Verse 2]
            F                 
Now you're down in the valley, 
 Bb      C/A       Gm
looking up to the sky
C                                 
And you're praying "Lord, you know
              Bb         C        
 what's best, but I don't 
    F
understand why."
F                                 
If you could hear your loved one, 
Bb   C/A        Gm
speaking now to you,
           C                
They'd say, "You wouldn't be 
           Bb     C     F
grieving, if you only knew."

[Chorus]
             Bb                 
If you only knew, I'm just going 
  F
Home
                        C          
Your prayers have been answered, my
              F    F7
 sickness is gone
                  Bb         
Things look much better, from 
           F
Heaven's view
                 C                 
The Son always shines, we're having
    C7                F
 a time, if you only knew

[Verse 3]
F                          
To be absent from the body, is 
Bb      C/A           Gm
present with the Lord
C                                 
I'm in the arms of Jesus now, and 
    Bb        C       F
I'm not suffering anymore
F                                  
Hand in hand we'll stroll together,
Bb     C/A        Gm
 down Heaven's avenue
C                                 
And we're having a big 
  Bb     C     F
celebration, if you only knew

[Chorus]
             Bb                 
If you only knew, I'm just going 
  F
Home
                        C          
Your prayers have been answered, my

 sickness is gone
                  Bb         
Things look much better, from 
           F
Heaven's view
                 C                 
The Son always shines, we're having
    C7                F   F7
 a time, if you only knew
                  Bb         
Things look much better, from 
           F
Heaven's view
                 C                 
The Son always shines, we're having
