If I Believed Lyrics

Luke 18:8b; Mark 9:24; II Corinthians 4:13-18
Mark Gersmehl, Jeni Varnadeau
There's a place in the night where it's just you and me
There's no where to go but here with my dreams
The shadows close in, the doubts start to flow
There's nowhere to look but deep in my soul
You are whispering secrets I'm longing to hear
I want to receive it but I cannot get near
Can I really let go or am I holding on to fear?
CHORUS
If I believed with a holy pa*sion
I'd throw hesitation to the wind
If I would love you with abandon
My trust in you would never end
If I believed, If I believed, If I believed
Lord, hear my prayer, show me what to do
I want to be closer and closer to you
I try to move forward but I'm stuck in my tracks
I long for the day when I'm not holding back
What should I keep? What should I lose?
Give me the wisdom to know what to choose
Whatever You want, Lord, that's what I want to do
CHORUS
BRIDGE
I believe, help me with my unbelief
I believe, help me with my unbelief
Help me believe
But if I really believed every word You've spoken
Surrendered my little hopes and dreams
If I believed I can't imagine
Just what my life would really mean
If I really believed with reckless pa*sion
I would live so differently
I would have no hesitation
In giving you every part of me
If I believed, If I believed, If I believed.
