VS 1
IF I COULD TAKE A BRUSH AND PAINT THE WORLD MY FAVORITE COLOR
IF I COULD SEND DOWN THE RAIN
IF I COULD TELL THE WIND TO BLOW FROM ONE END TO THE OTHER
AND MAKE THE OCEAN WAVE
IF ONLY I COULD COUNT THE STARS ABOVE
MAYBE I COULD UNDERSTAND HIS LOVE

CHO
BUT THE STARS CANNOT BE NUMBERED
ONLY GOD KNOWS EVERYONE BY NAME
ONLY GOD MAKES THUNDER
HE ALONE COMMANDS THE WIND AND RAIN
I CANNOT EXPLAIN THE WONDER OF HIS MAJESTY
MAYBE I COULD UNDERSTAND HIS LOVE FOR YOU AND ME
IF I COULD COUNT THE STARS ABOVE

VS 2
IF I HAD ALL THE ANSWERS AND COULD TELL YOU EVERY REASON
WHY THINGS HAPPEN LIKE THEY DO
IF I COULD SEE THE FUTURE EVERY MOMENT, TIME AND SEASON
AND HAVE PERFECT POINT OF VIEW
IF ONLY I COULD COUNT THE STARS ABOVE
MAYBE I COULD UNDERSTAND HIS LOVE

CHO

BRIDGE
GOD’S LOVE REACHES PAST THE MINDS OF MORTAL MAN
CHANGING HEARTS AND SETTING CAPTIVES FREE
THOUGH HIS LOVE IS MORE THAN I WILL EVER UNDERSTAND
IT’S ENOUGH TO KNOW HE LOVES YOU AND HE LOVES ME
