Lyrics Beautiful Eulogy

Beautiful Eulogy

If...

If in one unfortunate moment

You took everything that I own

Everything you've given from heaven above

And everything that I've ever known

If you stripped away my ministry

My influence, my reputation

My health, my happiness

My friends, my pride, and my expectation

If you caused for me to suffer

Or to suffer for the cause of the cross

If the cost of my allegiance is prison

And all my freedoms are lost

If you take the breath from my lungs

And make an end of my life

If you take the most precious part of me

And take my kids and my wife

It would crush me, it would break me

It would suffocate and cause heartache

I would taste the bitter dark providence

But you would still preserve my faith

What's concealed in the heart of having

Is revealed in the losing of things

And I can't even begin to imagine

The sting that kind of pain brings

I would never blame you for evil

Even if you caused me pain

I came into this world with nothing

And when I die it'll be the same

I will praise your name

In the giving and taking away

If I have you I could lose everything

And still consider it gain

It could mean everything, it could mean nothing

One word makes the difference

It could mean everything, it could mean nothing

One word changes everything

It could mean everything, it could mean nothing

One word makes the difference

It could mean everything, it could mean nothing

One word changes everything

(Everyone who trusts in you will not be put to shame)

If that's not what I believed

Then why is that what I proclaim?

If it don't change how I live

Should I still shout it just the same?

If I shout it as loud as I can

Will blessings shower down

From the heavens and land on my crown

To rinse away all my doubt?

And the grace of God is only sweet

To the ears who hear the sound of it

But that sweetness won't be tasted

By the mouth of a counterfeit faith

Only the thirsty will drink from the fountain of life and count

Everything as a loss for the sake of being found in Christ

Obedience to God's word is the safest foundation

A safe haven for saints waiting for the glorious great day when

Our saviour will return

That's the day of restoration

Those who sleep will be awakened

And we will never cease to thank Him

Singing "worthy is the Lamb to receive glory and honor"

Worthy is the Lamb who reconciled us to our Father

Worthy is the one who gives life without end

But if Christ is not raised then we are still in our sin

If...

It could mean everything, it could mean nothing

One word makes the difference

It could mean everything, it could mean nothing

One word changes everything

It could mean everything, it could mean nothing

One word makes the difference

It could mean everything, it could mean nothing

One word changes everything

It could mean everything, it could mean nothing

One word makes the difference

It could mean everything, it could mean nothing

One word changes everything

It could mean everything, it could mean nothing

One word makes the difference

It could mean everything, it could mean nothing

One word changes everything
