Only One Thing

Shut out the world with all its distractions

All of its noise and empty attractions

And shut me in, Lord

To the presence of Your glory

Shut out my cares and all of my worries

All of my fears and all of my hurries

And shut me in, Lord

To the presence of Your glory

Only one thing is necessary

Only one thing is necessary

To sit at Your feet

To sit at Your feet

And gaze upon Your beauty

Shut out the lie that I can’t come near You

You bought me with blood and taught me to fear You

So shut me in, Lord

To the presence of Your glory

For here in Your presence my soul is satisfied

Here in Your presence my soul finds all delight

Here in Your presence my soul is thirsting for You

Yes, I’m thirsting for You

Only one thing is necessary

Only one thing is necessary

To sit at Your feet

To sit at Your feet

And gaze upon Your beauty
