Lyrics
One thing
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
One thing I ask
One thing I seek
To see your face
To gaze upon your beauty
To search behind the eyes of Love
To spend my days
Within the veil
Where purity
And light pour over me
And I am changed…
I gaze on the one who so desired
Friendship with one as low as me
You left behind your throne
So I'll sing of your love
The King who became the Sacrifice
Broken and cursed upon the tree
The Saviour of my soul
Hallelujah, hallelujah!
All I held close
I now let go
All else is loss
Compared with knowing you
And I am changed....
