Only God Knows
Only God Knows: Embracing Unseen Pain
Lyrics
Only God knows when your heart's been broken
God alone understands the pain of a broken heart
Only God knows all the times you've cried
God alone knows every instance of your tears
Only God knows every fear unspoken
Only God comprehends the fears you keep to yourself
Only God knows what you're feeling inside
God alone perceives the emotions hidden within you
Only God knows what you're feeling inside
Reiteration of God's knowledge of inner feelings
Only God knows when your heart's been broken
Recognition that God understands heartbreak
Only God knows all the times you've cried
Emphasis on God's awareness of tears shed in sorrow
Only God knows every fear unspoken
Acknowledgment that God knows undisclosed fears
Only God knows what you're feeling inside
Reiteration of God's understanding of inner emotions
Only God knows what you're feeling inside
Repeated emphasis on God's awareness of internal feelings
There's no greater love than when a brother
Highlighting the sacrificial love of a brother laying down his life for another
Lays his life on the line for another
Expressing empathy for challenging times
I know what it's like when times get tough
Acknowledging the inadequacy of kind words in tough situations
And the kindest word from the best of friends
Recognizing the limited comfort even from the best of friends
Never seems to be enough
Underlining the insufficiency of external support
Only God knows when your heart's been broken
Reiteration of God's knowledge of heartbreak
Only God knows all the times you've cried
Emphasis on God's awareness of tears shed in sorrow
Only God knows every fear unspoken
Acknowledgment that God knows undisclosed fears
Only God knows what you're feeling inside
Reiteration of God's understanding of inner emotions
Only God knows what you're feeling inside
Repeated emphasis on God's awareness of internal feelings
When all hope is gone
Describing a state of despair and shattered dreams
And dreams are shattered
Highlighting the bleakness when hope is lost
And you start to feel
Expressing a feeling of insignificance
Like nothing else matters
Stressing the importance of a friend in difficult times
There's a friend when friends cannot be found
Describing God as a reliable friend when others are unavailable
He's a friend indeed when your soul in need
Emphasizing God as a true friend in times of soul need
He can turn your life around
Asserting God's transformative power in one's life
Turn your life around
Reiteration of the transformative impact of God
Only God knows when your heart's been broken
Reiteration of God's knowledge of heartbreak
Only God knows all the times you've cried
Emphasis on God's awareness of tears shed in sorrow
Only God knows every fear unspoken
Acknowledgment that God knows undisclosed fears
Only God knows what you're feeling inside
Reiteration of God's understanding of inner emotions
Only God knows what you're feeling inside
Repeated emphasis on God's awareness of internal feelings
Only God knows when your heart's been broken
Reiteration of God's knowledge of heartbreak
Only God knows all the times you've cried
Emphasis on God's awareness of tears shed in sorrow
Only God knows every fear unspoken
Acknowledgment that God knows undisclosed fears
Only God knows what you're feeling inside
Reiteration of God's understanding of inner emotions
Only God knows what you're feeling inside
Repeated emphasis on God's awareness of internal feelings
