If I
Adie Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I feel much stronger now I know You
Your beauty pierces my heart
And I get it, Your love is so much deeper
And bolder than the purest dark

And if I'm stronger, it?s 'cause the fear is over
You've taken all my shame
And I don't know if I?ll ever fathom
What it took to give it all away
And I don't know if I?ll ever know
All the debt I?ll never have to pay

You take the coldest part of my heart
And turn it to overflowing joy
And I get it, all I need is in You
And this beauty is what You have restored

And if I'm stronger, it?s 'cause the fear is over
Your love has paved the way

And I don't know if I?ll ever fathom
What it took to give it all away
And I don't know if I?ll ever know
All the debt I?ll never have to pay

You gave Your life in place of
What I should have paid my debt for
How could I have ever lived without You?

And I don't know if I?ll ever fathom
What it took to give it all away

And I don't know if I?ll ever fathom
What it took to give it all away
And I don't know if I?ll ever know
All the debt I?ll never have to pay

And I don't know if I?ll ever fathom
What it took to give it all away




And I don't know if I?ll ever know
All the debt I?ll never have to pay
