If I Stay Lyrics

To me

You've always been

Too big or too holy

To care much about me

To say that You love me

I didn't understand that

It's so much more than going to a sanctuary

A relationship is what's really necessary

If I knew then

That I am welcome

As I am

If I only knew

I wouldn't have to ask

If I stay

Would it be so bad

Are my sins too great

For me to come back

But you said if I need something

All I need to do is ask

This ain't an occupation

Act right

Get a promotion

Only thing that I will raise is Your Name

Don't really care about all the fame

Imma lift You up and I ain't got no shame

If I knew then

That I am welcome

As I am

If I only knew

I wouldn't have to ask

If I stay

Would it be so bad

Are my sins too great

For me to come back

But you said if I need something

All I need to do is ask

Tried to live without You

Couldn't survive without You

That kind of life was empty

Something was missing

Kinda like Jonah, fishy

Now i'm like Joseph, dreamy

After everything You gave me

Like how i'm gonna live eternally

My identity

At thirty three

With no degree

Jesus, You paid the fee

But you said if I need something

All I need to do is ask
