[Verse 1]
I don't really know why
I've been feeling down
I've been feeling so low
I don't really know why
I can't figure out
Why I'm feeling so alone
Never really know why
All I think about
Is how bad it could go
When I really don't know, no
[Pre-Chorus]
I get these thoughts inside my head
What if I don't have what it takes
What if things don't ever change
Don't leave room for You but...
[Chorus]
What if You're holding me up
What if Your love is enough
What if the power in Your name
Could do anything
And what if You're making me strong
What if You were here all along
What if I'm right where You want me
[Verse 2]
Everything I'm going through
You understand
I know You see it
Every single thing I do
It's in Your hands
And I believe it
I don't really know why
I feel like I keep letting you down
There's nothing that can separate
Me from You
And I believe it
[Chorus]
What if You're holding me up
What if Your love is enough
What if the power in Your name
Can do anything
And what if You're making me strong
What if You were here all along
What if I'm right where You want me
[Bridge]
I get these thoughts inside my head
What if I don't have what it takes
What if things don't ever change
Then I remember what You said
You will fulfill Your promises
And all the questions go away
Woah...
[Chorus]
I know You're holding me up
I know Your love is enough
I know the power in Your name
You can do anything
And I know You're making me strong
I know You were here all along
I know I'm right where You want me
I know You're holding me up
I know Your love is enough
I know the power in Your name
You can do anything
And I know You're making me strong
I know You were here all along
I know I'm right where You want me
[Outro]
What if You were right there
What If
Song Meaning
Blanca opens "What If" without naming a cause for the feeling she's describing — "I don't really know why I've been feeling down... I don't really know why I can't figure out why I'm feeling so alone" — letting the sadness stand unexplained rather than forcing a reason onto it.
"What if I don't have what it takes, what if things don't ever change" names the specific anxious questions running underneath that mood, and the chorus answers each one with a matching question rather than a flat denial — "what if You're holding me up, what if Your love is enough, what if the power in Your name could do anything."
"Everything I'm going through, You understand, I know You see it" shifts from asking to stating, and "there's nothing that can separate me from You" borrows Paul's language directly. The final repetitions replace every "what if" with "I know" — "I know You're holding me up, I know Your love is enough" — letting the exact same words that opened in doubt close the song in certainty.
