If I could see what the angels see
Behind the walls, beneath the sea
Under the avalanche, through the trees
Gone would be the mystery
If I could see

If I could hear what the angels hear
The thunderous sound of a crashing tear
Holy, holy in my ear
I'd never doubt that God is near
If I could hear

I'd see that love will conquer hate
There's always hope, it's not too late
I'd find the truth is easy to believe
If I could see

If I could know what angels know
That death's goodbye is love's hello
And spirits come and spirits go
I feel them but they never show
If I could know

If I could stand where angels stand
Watch this world while God commands
And see how love designed this plan
Reminders on His feet and hands
If I could stand

I'd see that love will conquer hate
There's always hope, it's not too late
I'd find the truth is easy to believe

If I could see
If I could hear
If I could know
There's nothing to fear
If I could stand
If I could see
Maybe that's finally eternity

If I could see what the angels see
Behind these walls to you and me
And let the truth set me free
I'd live this life differently
If I could, if I could see

I'd see that love will conquer hate
There's always hope, it's not too late
I'd find the truth is easy to believe
Like sunlight shining on my face
I'd feel the presence of Your grace
I'd find the truth and finally be set free
If I could see
If I could see
If I could see
One day I'll see

Amy Grant

By the time Amy Grant was nineteen, she was Contemporary Christian music’s most celebrated singer. Grant grew up in the Church of Christ where she sang for God two nights a week. As a teen, she decided to pursue a career in music, writing her first song while attending devotional meetings at her high school.

Grant recorded a demo while working as an intern at a recording studio and the owner was so impressed he signed her to his own label and released her first album Amy Grant in 1977. It spawned three top 10 songs on Billboard’s Christian Songs chart.

The following year, Grant began touring while balancing college studies. Her second album My Father’s Eyes was released in April 1979. At its record release party, she met future first husband gospel singer Gary Chapman. He’d written its title track, and it would become her first of many Christian Songs Chart-toppers. Her third album Never Alone came out in 1981 and features the #3 Christian Songs hit “Look What Has Happened To Me”.
