One King

–
Break the seal from my lips.
Let me proclaim your salvation.
I do not hide your faithfulness,
I speak of you before the nation.

–
I was wandering in the darkness,
No spark of hope to be found.
Great and wonderful your love,
That turned my life around.

–
Your grace reached out to me,
When no other would.
And your mercy paid the price,
That no other could.

–
Open my heart dear Lord,
And let the praise pour out.
Let joy and gladness ring true,
As from the mountains I shout.

–
I will speak of how you came
And calmed my every fear.
I will tell your loving promise,
To any ear that will hear.

–
The Lord my God is my purpose.
He is my breath, my everything.
He set me free; I will serve Him.
My heart says, I have but one King.
