If all i ever knew

Believing in the things you cannot see
Is hard sometimes but it's the way for me
'Cause things I saw began to fall
And slowly fade away
But things the Lord has shown to me
Are in my heart to stay.

So if all I ever knew is what He told me,
If all I ever saw is what He showed me,
I'd be content to realize He knows me
And all I'd want to do is live for Him.

Faith is made of things you cannot see,
Things that in my heart I know must be
To put my faith in things above
Is all that I can do
In Heaven's hope and Jesus' love
The things I know are true.

So if all I ever knew is what He told me,
If all I ever saw is what He showed me,
If all He wants to do is just control me
Then all I want to do is live for Him.
