If You Only Knew

If you knew the danger you were in you wouldn't hesitate In not realizing the effects of sin you sit around and wait Doing nothing to prepare everything else taking precedence Oh! But the cost of being unaware is so completely immense For if you only knew the fact that things are seen and unseen And realize how we all lack, then you would know what I mean But here upon the divide you sit not knowing you're even seated I would have to admit it looks like satin already has you defeated If you only knew of His Story, how Jesus already paid Your price How all of Heaven sings His Glory and NOTHING else will suffice How He suffered and died on that Cross so you could live forever But this Gift you just toss going about tackling your next endeavor Yeah if you only knew your adversary, what he's always trying to do That he has only one worry, that you'll finally find out what is true If only you had known of this choice, not putting it off to the side There'll be no reason to rejoice seeing all along that satan has lied John 5:19 We know that we are children of God, and that the whole world is under the control of the evil one.
