The Only Song

(album: The Mission Field - 2011)

I see the choir in the robes, the piano player plays
And they all sing hallelujah
All the people in the front and the people in the back
Are singing praises to Ya
And I close my eyes and let the music wash right over me
Just like the blood of the lamb that washed me clean

I'm looking through the book at the hymns
That a thousand men have written for You
“Amazing Grace” and “I'll Fly Away”
And “Joyful We Adore You”
And it occurred to me that the songs I sing, although they're beautiful
They just don't compare to the best one that I know

You are the melody, the words, You're the chorus
Cause You gladly laid Your life down for us
All the blessings that You bring
You're the only song I ever wanna sing.

All the sinners and the saints got something to say
But we know who gave 'em voices
And we're all down here in the atmosphere just making joyful noises
Birds are singing in the air, thunder crashes like a drum
Your song is everywhere; it was my first number 1

You are the melody the words, You're the chorus
Cause You gladly laid Your life down for us
All the blessings that You bring
You're the only song I ever wanna sing.

Sing Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Sing Hallelujah
Hallelujah

You are the melody, the words, You're the chorus
Cause You gladly laid your life down for us

You are the melody, the words, You're the chorus
Cause You gladly laid Your life down for us
All the blessings that You bring
Lord of Lords, and King of Kings
We will let our voices ring
You're the only song we ever wanna sing.
You're the only song I ever wanna sing (hallelujah)
You're the only song I ever wanna sing (hallelujah)
You're the only song I ever wanna sing.
