This song is about gratitude for the abundant grace of God. He gave His all, and it will never seem like what we offer in thanksgiving could be enough. He deserves all our praise, all our worship—there is no one else worthy. But He sings too. He sings over us His love songs and invites us to join in.
If I Could Only Sing
The description of the song
My Story
I could never sing well, but I always wanted to. As a writer, I had plenty of words but no melodies to offer Him to convey my gratitude. But now I do. Thanks to AI, my words have life—they have my soul. I can finally hear what my heart has been crying all along and offer it back to Him in song.
The Lyrics
Lord you are simply amazing
You’ve stood the test of time
You are my forever after
And shown me that I am thine
My gratitude it overflows
No, it can’t be contained
No words could I ever express
My gratitude, it ever remains
Every promise has proven true
You’ve healed
You’ve delivered
You’ve rescued me
Through and through
Marvelous doesn’t describe you
No earthly words can explain
Your love so amazing
The reason why you came
No matter how often I fail
You love me ever still
Giving comfort and correction
While my heart you hold most still
You have surely left me speechless
And my heart overflows
Overwhelmed by Your faithfulness
I have come to know
If I could only sing Lord
Yes
If I could only sing Lord
Then these melodies would ring
Throughout all of Heaven
With the angels who gladly sing
Such joy to your heart I’d bring
Such a worthy praise I’d endless sing
If I could only sing
Oh if I could only sing
If I, if I could only sing
This would be the evidence
Of my gratitude in hymns
Songs of wonder, songs of delight
Songs that would bear witness
How you kept me in the night
Yes, there are many reasons
I’d stand on every mountain top
If I could only sing
If I could only sing, Lord
If I could only sing, Lord
Then maybe my tears of gratitude
Would no longer need to fall
Because
Then I’d be able to says what’s in my heart
What has captured me completely
And torn me all apart
If I could only
If I could only sing
Then in Heaven my melodies would ring
And reach Your throne of glory
They’d surely bow at your feet
Giving all glory and honor
To the One who set me free
If I could only sing
