As If...




As if somehow you owed us more
Than you've already given
Some dare to curse and shake a fist
At God of earth and heav'n

As if somehow we did not have
Our utmost need supplied;
Redemption from the curse of sin
Through pardon You provide

As if this world should reconcile
Our logic, some deny
Because of Love misunderstood
You, God of earth and sky

As if we didn't owe to You
All heart, soul, strength and mind
Some spend a lifetime looking for
Something they cannot find

John 3:16-18
For God so loved the world that He gave His one and onlye Son, 
that everyone who believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life.
 17For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, 
but to save the world through Him. 
18Whoever believes in Him is not condemned, 
but whoever does not believe has already been condemned,
 because he has not believed in the name of God’s one and only Son.
