If You Had Known Me
Joan Ewing
Just an old rejected relic
On the auction block
They decided to throw me away
The auctioneer asked, "Who will take her?"
The room was quiet and still
'Til a stranger stepped forward
And He said, "I will"
If you had known me before I knew Him
You'd understand why I love Him
If you had known me before I knew Him
You'd understand my love
I had not much to offer
Just heartaches and fear
And a life that was filled with despair
For my rags, He gave me riches
For my fear, He traded peace
From my old life, he gave me
A blessed release
If you had known me before I knew Him
You'd understand why I love Him
If you had known me before I knew Him
You'd understand my love
If you had known me before I knew Him
You'd understand my love
