The Only Thing Songtext

von Ronnie Freeman

I heard someone say
The other day
They'd seen in me
True love displayed
Blessed by something
I had done for them
No sooner
Did they speak those words
I found myself
Somehow disturbed
Uneasy as I took their compliment
Because I know
The heart inside this man
And I know the truth of who I am

[Chorus]
The only thing that's good in me
Is Jesus
The only thing that's good in me
Is Jesus
I've lived long enough to know
No matter what this life may show
The only thing that's good in me
Is Jesus

If you could walk
The hallways of my heart
See things as they really are
I wonder if you might be surprised
Seeing faded walls of pride and fear
Rooms I've filled
With faithless tears
And corners
Where I've stood in compromise
Oh! but you'd see
The work His grace has done
You'd know just how far I've come

Repeat Chorus

And in a thousand years
When the dust of this world clears
And I look back on my life
And see in perfect light

The only thing that's good in me
Is You, Lord
The only thing that's good in me
Is Jesus
I know me well enough to know
The only thing that's good in me

The only thing that's good in me
I know me well enough to know
No matter what this life may show
The only thing that's good in me
Is Jesus
Jesus
Yeah! It's You
It's You
It's You
Only You
