Welcome to Cheerful Hearts

"If Only . . ."

If only circumstances were different life wouldn't be this way

If Only God would answer me, I could make it through the day

If Only dreams and visions, would suddenly come to pass

I'd be free from this pain and torment; I could go on with life at last!

My body's growing weary, my faith is growing weak

It's you Oh God I'm clinging to; it's you Oh God I seek

If Only you would dry my tears, and deliver me from this dread

If Only you would free me Lord, giving me the life that I desire instead

Internally I feel the answer, welling up within

The Only thing that needs to change, is my attitude once again

Gently I'm reminded, in God's very special way

If Only you'd stop questioning, your mind will be at rest

If Only you will remember, for you I desire the best

If Only you will trust in me, I will see you through

I know it's hard, and that you're struggling

But my child, I am here for you

IF ONLY……………
