What If I Stumble
D.C. Talk
Jesus Freak CD

Is this one for the people,
Is this one for the Lord,
Or do I simply serenade the things I must afford?
You can jumble them together,
But conflict still remains:
Holiness is calling in the midst of courting fame

'Cause I see the trust in their eyes (though the sky is falling)
They need Your love in their lives (compromise(?) is calling)

What if I stumble, what if I fall
What if I lose my step and I make fools of us all
Would the love still continue
When my walk becomes a crawl
What if I stumble, and what if I fall

(what if I stumble, what if I fall,
 You never turn in the heat of it all
 what if I stumble, what if I fall)

Father, please forgive me,
For I cannot compose
The fear that lives within me,
Or the rate at which it grows
In Struggle lies a purpose
On the narrow road You've carved
Why do I dread my trespasses
Will leave a deadly scar?

Do they see the fear in my eyes (are they so revealing)
This time I cannot disguise (all the doubt I'm feeling)

[chorus]
[instrumental (mandolin) chorus]

[
Everyone's got to crawl when you know that
You're up against the wall, it's about to fall
Everyone's got to crawl when you know that --
] (2x)

I hear you whispering my name (You say)
My love for you will never change (never change)

[chorus]
[chorus]

(what if I stumble, what if I fall,
 You never turn in the heat of it all
 what if I stumble, what if I fall
 You are my comfort, and my God)
