One Thing
Zach Taylor Band Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Take these words and make a song
For all the world to sing along
Take what's mine and make it Yours

Take this love and spread it out
For all to see what You're all about
Your kingdom here is ready now
And it's You that I want
And it's You that I need
And it's You, and it's You

There is only one face that I seek
There is only one truth I believe
There is only one thing left to do
And that one thing is to live to worship You

Take these words and let them speak
The truth that's Yours to those who seek
Take my life and set me free, yeah

Take this love and spread it out
For all to see what You're all about
Your kingdom here is ready now

And it's You that I want
And it's You that I need
And it's You, and it's You

There is only one face that I seek
There is only one truth I believe
There is only one thing left to do
And that one thing is to live to worship You

Uh huh, uh huh, yeah
And it's You, and it's You

There is only one face that I seek, yeah, Jesus
There is only one truth I believe

There is only one face that I seek
There is only one truth I believe
There is only one thing left to do




And that one thing is to live to worship You
And that one thing is to live to worship You
