THERE IS ONE THING
1. There is one
thing, O Lord!
There is one thing
I desire of Thee;
There is one thing,
like David:
That I may dwell in
the house of the Lord
All the days of my
life,
All the days of my
life,
To behold the
beauty of the Lord,
and to inquire in
His temple.
2. There is one
thing, O Lord,
There is one thing
I desire of Thee;
There is one thing
like Mary:
That I may sit at
the feet of the Lord
All the days of my
life,
All the days of my
life,
Just to hear His
word and feel His heart,
I want to choose
that better part.
3. There is one
thing, O Lord,
There is one thing
I desire of Thee,
There is one thing
like Paul:
That I forget what
lies behind,
Reaching for what's
ahead,
Reaching for what's
ahead,
I will press toward
the mark for the prize
Of the high calling
of God in Christ.
