Building 429's 'One Foot' is an encouraging anthem about stepping forward in faith even when the path is unclear. The song acknowledges seasons of loneliness, fear, and doubt, but resolves to keep moving one step at a time, trusting God to reveal Himself and bring new beginnings. It emphasizes that worth is found in God's eyes, not in others' opinions, and expresses a desire for open hands, strength, and grace to follow Him fully. The message is one of perseverance, surrender, and hope in God's faithfulness.

Lyrics Verified by Editorial Team

This is the path less taken
This is the life less lived
This is where You have placed me
And You want all I have to give

There were times when I was lonely
There were times when I was scared
There were moments when I stopped chasing
And I was frozen in my fear

But I won't be the man
Who watched the world passed him by

I don't really know where this road is going
I don't really know why this door is open
Put one foot in front of the other
That's how I'm going to discover
Who you really are when the world is ending
How you raise the dead to new beginnings
One foot in front of the other
That's how I'm going to discover
One foot, one foot at a time
One foot, one foot at a time

There are those who stood against me
They said I'd never measure up
All the voices are fading
Cuz I care more about Your love
But this is not about them
It isn't even about me
Because my worth is found inside Your eyes
So I will rise and sing

I won't be the man
Who watched the world passed him by

I don't really know where this road is going
I don't really know why this door is open
Put one foot in front of the other
That's how I'm going to discover
Who you really are when the world is ending
How you raise the dead to new beginnings
One foot in front of the other
That's how I'm going to discover
One foot, one foot at a time
One foot, one foot at a time

Give me open hands
And strength to stand
Grace to fall
Cuz all I want is You in this life
Give me open eyes
And strength to walk
Whether I may rise or fall
Cuz all I want is You
All I want is You

I don't really know where this road is going
I don't really know why this door is open
Put one foot in front of the other
That's how I'm going to discover
Who you really are when the world is ending
How you raise the dead to new beginnings
One foot in front of the other
That's how I'm going to discover
One foot, one foot at a time
One foot, one foot at a time
