It's Only You

Copyright © 2006 by Art Ruprecht & Nancy Ruprecht

Pretty shoes in Sunday school
Trying not to break the rules
Hoping that she'll be good enough

At seventeen, she's wearing shame
Playing at the high school game
She wonders what will make her good enough

It's only Your mercy that sets us apart
It's only Your goodness that heals
It's only Your love shed abroad in our heart
It's only You

Old enough to see the past
It's thunder brought the rain
Knowing now there's no one good enough

It's only Your mercy that sets us apart
It's only Your goodness that heals
It's only Your love shed abroad in our heart
That only Your Spirit reveals

Your dying gives us new life
Your truth sets us free
It's only Your power that frees us from strife
It's only You

BRIDGE:
It's like standing on tiptoes grasping at stars
Trying to reach heaven in a red sports car
Searching for treasure in your own backyard
Not too high, not too far, not too deep
It's not about me, it's only Jesus

It's only Your mercy that sets us apart
It's only Your goodness that heals
It's only Your love shed abroad in our heart
That only Your Spirit reveals

Your dying gives us new life
And Your truth sets us free
It's only Your power that frees us from strife
It's only You
Yea Your mercy
Only Your love

Your dying gives us new life
And Your truth sets us free
It's only Your power that frees us from strife
It's only You
Only You, it's only You

Pretty shoes in Sunday school
Teaching 'bout the One who rules
Telling them He was good enough
