What If

It's bigger than a stable, a baby or a star Or falling to our knees and lighting candles in the dark In a world of broken people without mercy without heart We can't sing hallelujah when we're losing who we are Tell me what's the use in preaching For the world to turn out right Only praying while it crumble's But we never join the fight What if we could trade in the words What if we could give till it hurts What if we could care for someone with nothing else to gain Maybe if we break all the walls Maybe then we'd find peace on earth Maybe we'll let love be enough For more than just one day It's bigger than a season, the ribbons or the lights Or gathering round a table on a silent holy night If there's no forgiveness and we smile through all the lies We're illusions of a family hiding who we are inside Tell me why we're preaching If we always stay the same Only praying while we crumble But I know that we can change What if what if what if We could let love be enough What if what if what if We could let Love in What if we could trade in the words What if we could give till it hurts What if we could care for someone with nothing else to gain What if we could let love be enough What if What if
