Kierra Sheard's song "One Step at a Time" is a declaration of exclusive faith in Jesus Christ as the only way to God. The lyrics contrast the many speculative paths people search for with the singular truth of Christ's sacrifice. Sheard emphasizes that Jesus gave His life to make believers free, and she encourages listeners to live faithfully so they can be counted among those who follow Him. The song also highlights the uniqueness of Jesus' name, calling on Him in trouble and giving Him glory. It's a straightforward gospel message about salvation and commitment, delivered with conviction and energy.
Lyrics Verified by Editorial Team
Speculations are that
There's many ways to get up there
I have a different view to share
I don't claim to be a know it all
But I know someone who knows it all
And whatever He says I believe, so there can only be just...
One (way to get to where he is)
One (only one life to give)
So I'mma do what I gotta do, so I can be counted
Just one (gave up His life for you and me)
And they won (sacrifice to make us free)
So no matter what you heard
When it's all said and done, there's only one
There's people searching everywhere
Coming up with nothing but thin air
Talking to a God who isn't there
If I had to sum it up I'd say
There ain't enough time in a day
To tell you everything He's done
But I can tell you that there's only
One (way to get to where he is)
One (only one life to give)
So I'mma do what I gotta do, so I can be counted
Just one (gave up His life for you and me)
And they won (sacrifice to make us free)
So no matter what you heard
When it's all said and done, there's only one
Under the sun there's only (one)
Name that I call on only (one)
Who when I'm in trouble
I give the glory to (one)
There is no higher (one)
Than our Lord to worship
Above Your name there's none
One (way to get to where he is)
One (only one life to give)
So I'mma do what I gotta do, so I can be counted
Just one (gave up His life for you and me)
And they won (sacrifice to make us free)
So no matter what you heard
When it's all said and done, there's only one
