The One
Aaron Shust's song 'The One' is a worship ballad that reassures believers of God's sovereign care and presence.

The song references the cleansing power of God's love, comparing it to a crimson tide that washes sins white as snow. It emphasizes trusting God's strength and faithfulness even when the world seems unstable. The overall message is one of hope, peace, and confidence in God's ultimate control over all things.
The day is dark and I can't see
The path I'm on or what's in front of me
But I will stand on this I know
You will never let me go
For the one who holds tomorrow
Holds me in His hand
And I will not fear the future
I'll trust the Great I Am
His love is deep, His love is wide
A fountain flowing like a crimson tide
My stains were scarlet, but this I know
They've been washed as white as snow
For the one who holds tomorrow
Holds me in His hand
And I will not fear the future
I'll trust the Great I Am
Who has been and always will be
Reigning on His throne
For the One who holds me in His hand
Is the One who holds it all
Though the world shall fade away
And the sky may even fall
You are strong enough to save
You're the one who holds
Every heart that is afraid
You hear our desperate call
You are strong enough to save
You're the One who holds it all
You hold it all
You hold it all
For the one who holds tomorrow
Holds me in His hand
And I will not fear the future
I'll trust the Great I Am
Who has been and always will be
Reigning on His throne
For the One who holds me in His hand
Is the One who holds it all
You're the One who holds it all
You're the One who holds it all
