"If You Only Knew the Lover Of My Soul"

I remember being lost in a world so dark and cold,

Longing for someone to love me and to hold;

And finally one night, someone heard my cry,

Reached down in my depths and lifted me so high.

(Chorus)

If you only knew the father, then you'd know why my heart sings.

If you only knew Him really, then you'd understand these things.

If you only knew the father, then you'd know why there's no other;

If you only knew the Lover of my Soul.

There were times in my life when death seemed to be

The only way out for a wretched soul like me.

Then Jesus came and loved me, the way no one else can;

Gave me hope and faith and set me free, now all I want is Him.

(Repeat Chorus)

Now I know there are those who don't know the love that's mine;

I see them every day stuggeling to find

Just a morsel or two of love from someone out there;

Left to die eating lies from those who say they care.

(2nd Chorus)

If they only knew the father, then they'd know why our heart sings.

If they only knew Him really, then they'd understand these things.

If they only knew the father, then they'd know why there's no other;

If they only knew the Lover of our Soul.
