Hillsong United – One Thing lyrics
One thing I desire
One thing I seek
To gaze upon Your beauty
Your majesty

God of my salvation
Lifter of my head
Teach me how to live, oh Lord
In Your righteousness

So I pray to You
So I pray to You

Chorus:
Lord Your Name is higher than the heavens
Lord Your Name is higher than all created things
Higher than hope, higher than dreams
The Name of the Lord

In the day of trouble
You cover me
In the secret place of refuge
Lord, I will sing

Repeat Chorus

And I will seek Your face
Call upon Your name, Jesus
All I want is You, Jesus
(3x)

Repeat Chorus
