What If?

What if the sky was green and trees were blue?
and black was a most brilliant hue?
And you were me and I were you?
Then what would we do?

What if words were never spoken?
Would any promise ever be broken?
Would any lie ever be told?
Would any fool ever be bold?

What if the old were young?
Would nothing new ever be done?
And if I saw the morning sun set,
would my love ever forget?

What if water was dry?
Would I weep and would I cry?
Would my heart never break,
though all my friends me forsake?

And what if one were more than two?
and never alone like me and you?
and never solitary or forlorn?
never weary, tired or worn?

Would the world be better or would it be worse,
if God should remove its curse?
So I pondered and so I thought,
but what have all my questions brought?

The sky is still blue and the trees are still green.
The eye hath not heard and the ear hath not seen.
But it has entered my heart from somewhere above,
"Thou knowest not God, for God is Love."
