Only One Thing
Todd Agnew Lyrics

Only one thing cannot fail
There is only one thing that will never let me down, no matter how hard life gets.

Only one thing will never die
There is only one thing in this world that is eternal and that will live on even after my time on earth is over.

Only one thing is sure and stable
There is only one thing that I can always count on, no matter how much everything else in my life changes.

Even when I turn and turn and turn
No matter how much I might stray from this one thing, it always remains constant and unchanging.

Only one thing, deeper than the ocean
There is only one thing that is truly profound and unfathomable, even more so than the mysteries of the vast ocean.

Only one thing is higher still
There is only one thing that is truly elevated and exalted above all else in this world.

Only one thing has such devotion
There is only one thing that loves me unconditionally and with an unwavering devotion, even when I struggle to reciprocate it.

Waiting arms wide until my will gives way
This one thing is always ready and waiting for me to come back to it, even if I resist or hesitate due to my own stubbornness or fear.

Your love reaches across the miles I raced
Despite all the times that I've tried to run away or push away from this one thing, its love still reaches out to me no matter how far I try to go.

To separate me from You
Despite my own efforts to separate myself from this one thing, it remains persistent in its love and never gives up on me.

Your love cradles me like a child when I finally reach for You
When I do finally turn back and reach out to this one thing, its love is comforting and nurturing, like a parent holding a scared child.

Your love's beyond my understanding
Despite how much I might try to comprehend and explain this one thing, its love always exceeds my own understanding and logic.

Only one thing is always faithful
There is only one thing that remains unwavering in its loyalty and trustworthiness, even when I might falter or lose faith in everything else.

Only one thing is ever pure
There is only one thing that is completely untainted and uncorrupted, without any hint of sin or darkness in it.

Only one thing, completely able
There is only one thing that is truly capable of changing me and making me into a better person, even when I might feel helpless or weak.

Only one thing will endure forever
There is only one thing that will remain steadfast and unchanging for all eternity, always there for me no matter what happens in this world.

I could sing of Your love forever
With all the ways that this one thing has blessed and transformed my life, I could sing its praises and express its greatness endlessly.
