If You Only Knew

D A   A G     A G


[Verse 1]

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


[Chorus]

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


[Verse 2]

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

   A
presence I'll fly"


[Chorus]

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