Kristene DiMarco's song 'What If' invites listeners to consider a humble, open-handed faith that trusts God even when understanding is incomplete. The lyrics explore themes of mystery, unity, and grace, challenging self-righteousness and judgment toward others. DiMarco reflects on Jesus' desire for mercy over rigid opinions, and imagines a heavenly table where even those who have hurt us are welcomed. The song emphasizes that trusting Jesus Himself—not being right or having all answers—is what He truly seeks. It gently calls believers to release control and embrace the beauty of God's inclusive love and redemption.

Lyrics Verified by Editorial Team

What if Jesus is okay with

Letting parts of Him remain a mystery

What if Jesus is just smiling

When I think down here I must know everything


What if my views don?t reflect His fullness

And there?s still so much more of heaven yet to see

What if trusting Him is what He?s looking for

Would that be good enough, good enough for me


What if Jesus sees what I miss

And He does not share all my thoughts on politics

What if His body bridges these chasms

That I have dug out in my own self-righteousness


And what if people I don?t agree with

Are the same ones pouring their perfume on His feet

What if Jesus gets the whole of His reward

Would that be beautiful, beautiful to me


What if Jesus desires mercy

While I?m busy judging others for their deeds

?Cause if I have His heart and friendship

Then I must know He loves the liars and the thieves


What if I spend life in His vineyard

And at midnight He redeems my enemies

What if trusting Him is what He?s looking for

Would that be good enough, good enough for me


What if Jesus? wedding table

Holds the people that have hurt and wounded me

What if I?m seated in the middle

While at the head are some who?ve only just believed


Oh what if after all I?ve been through

Everyone gets the same He promised me

What if Jesus alone is the reward

He would be good enough, good enough for me

He?d be more than good enough, good enough for me
