If I Were To Fall

If i were to fall...

Would you reach out your hand?

Forgive me my sins 

Those against your command

Would you cut loose my binds?

That may tether, and hold

Redeeming my soul 

That i cheaply sold

If i were to fall...

Will my spirit rejoice?

In my final breath

Will you hear my voice?

If i changed my ways

And i saw you as lord

Would you then raise me up...

Or bring down your sword?

If i were to fall...

Would you spare me some time?

To untangle my thoughts

In this mad pantomime 

I will lift high my hand

So that you see me well

Unless you demand

That i fall into hell

If i were to fall...

Would you pity your son?

Who has carried your doubt 

When he shouldn't have done

If i was a fool...

I was blinded by truth

All i have asked

Was a sign of some proof 

If i were to fall...

On your summoning day

I fear if i crawl

That i might lose the way

In the dark empty void 

For souls beyond repair 

Would you banish your son

All alone in there?

If i were to fall...

Would you take hold my hand?

Deliver me strength 

In the hope i might stand

Would your angels then sing?

When a lost son returned

Or will they simply laugh loud

As his body burned

If i were to fall...

Would you shine me your light?

Make the dark disappear 

To show everything bright

If the stars are my path

Let their guide be precise 

So they lead to the door

Of your paradise
