One Thing
[Verse 1]
It's one thing to speak about loving a King
Of a heart that's devoted, to seek only Him
Of a cross taken daily, a price is worth paying
It's one thing to speak but another to live
[Verse 2]
It's one thing to talk of eternal reward
To say that the labour is all for a cause
To speak of religion of grace and forgiveness
It's one thing to talk but another to walk
[Chorus]
For me to live is your name
To finish your work and proclaim
The gospel of freedom to the world
The gospel of Jesus to this world
[Verse 3]
It's one thing to speak of the people in need
Of the bound and oppressed, of the lost and the least
About knowing the truth that can make a man new
It's far more to reach out
Than live what we preach about how
[Bridge]
How could I ever hesitate to come?
I'm compelled by Your saving love
To live for Your cause
Outside of these walls
[Verse 4]
So show me a people whose hearts would be stirred
To go make disciples of those who've not heard
To live by the Spirit not of this world but in it
In deed and in word, for this is the church
For we are the church
