What If Jesus

(album: The Field - 2022)

What if Jesus is okay with
Letting parts of Him remain a mystery?
What if Jesus is just smiling
When I think down here, I must know everything?

What if my views don't reflect His fullness?
And there's still so much more of Heaven yet to see
What if trusting Him is what He's looking for
Would that be good enough, good enough for me?

What if Jesus sees what I miss
And He does not share all my thoughts on politics?
What if His body bridges these chasms
That I have dug out in my own self-righteousness?

And what if people I don't agree with
Are the same ones pouring their perfume on His feet?
What if Jesus gets the whole of His reward?
Would that be beautiful, beautiful to me?

What if Jesus desires mercy
While I'm busy judging others for their deeds?
'Cause if I have His heart and friendship
Then I must know He loves the liars and the thieves

What if I spend life in His vineyard
And at midnight He redeems my enemies?
What if trusting Him is what He's looking for?
Would that be good enough, good enough for me?

What if Jesus' wedding table
Holds the people that have hurt and wounded me?
What if I'm seated in the middle
While at the head are some who've only just believed?

Oh, what if after all I've been through
Everyone gets the same He promised me?
What if Jesus alone is the reward?
He would be good enough, good enough for me
He'd be more than good enough, good enough for me
