My reply:

Yes, it IS a beautiful song. The FULL song performed is on youtube under "If You Only Knew - Randy Travis" . I know, because I tried singing along with it, but couldn't get through it without "tearing up". I couldn't find the chords on chordie or e-chords, but found the lyrics on www.music-lyrics-chord.com and the first of seven sheet music pages free [fully downloadable/printable for $5.25] at www.musicnotes.com . I hope this helps. God Bless,

IF YOU ONLY KNEW
RANDY TRAVIS




By my grandfather's bed, my mother is reading,
Psalm 62, God is our refuge,
My grandfather stirs, could it be,
He is waking, one final time,
He has something to say,

If you only knew what lies awaiting
If you could only see what I can see
If you could only hear the music playing
The angels singing sweet victory
Oh, if you only knew, if you only knew,
How much he loves you

By my grandfather's bed, my mother is broken,
Psalm 17, O God I call on you,
She doesn't want to hear
Any words about leaving
My grandfather says
"Fear not, this is my time,
And into his presence I'll fly"

If you only knew what lies awainting
If you could only see what I can see
If you could only hear the music playing
The angels singing sweet victory
Oh, if you only knew, if you only knew,
How much he loves you
