I take a look at this crazy world
Chasing after things we can never keep
Always grasping never really gaining
We’re just loosing ourselves and loosing sleep
No matter what we’re holding onto
We find we’ve lost it once again
Oh, God, won’t You remind us
Of what matters in the end
Nothing but You
And Your endless love
I need Your truth
It’s all that I’m sure of
The one thing that I’m pursuing
Is the only thing that’s true
And it’s nothing in this world
Nothing but You
So I won’t go chasing after
Every little thing that I think I need
For I know that I can trust in You
To always be taking care of me
Lord, keep my mind from needless worry
Speak peace unto my anxious soul
For nothing else can satisfy me
Nothing makes me feel whole
Nothing but You
And Your endless love
I need Your truth
It’s all that I’m sure of
The one thing that I’m pursuing
Is the only thing that’s true
And it’s nothing in this world
Nothing but You
I’ve determined here and now
That this will be my heart’s desire
That You alone, God, will be
The flame that sets my soul on fire
Without You, everything in life is empty
Only You, Lord, You are everything I need
Nothing but You
And Your endless love
I need Your truth
It’s all that I’m sure of
The one thing that I’m pursuing
Is the only thing that’s true
And it’s nothing in this world
Nothing but You
