One thing have I desired of the Lord and that one thing I seek
To know You, to know You
[x2]
I was
I was made to gaze all of my days
I was made to gaze on beauty
[x2]
My beloved is beautiful
He's dazzling and excellent
My beloved is beautiful
[x2]
One thing have I desired of the Lord and that one thing I seek
To know You, to know You
One thing have I desired of the Lord and that one thing I seek
To know You, I just want to know You
I was
I was made to gaze all of my days
I was made to gaze on beauty
[x2]
My beloved is beautiful
He's dazzling and excellent
My beloved is beautiful
[x2]
He stands alone
He stands alone
He stands alone
He stands alone
He is coming to rule, coming to reign
He's the King, He's the King
He is coming to rule, coming to reign
Jesus, Jesus
[x2]
