Only One
Never having a beginning
Only One
Who reigns when everything is ending
High above
Glorious and true

We sing holy
The only uncreated One
Holy
The Light that was before the sun
You shine
And even when the stars have left the sky

You remain
Even when the earth is shaken
You remain
Even when our kings have fallen
Every mountain standing tall
Will crash into the sea
You were, You are, You will be
Only You remain

Only One
Who stood before the universe
Only One
Authored life with just a word
Lord of All
There is none like You

We sing holy
The only uncreated One
Holy
The Light that was before the sun
You shine
And even when the stars have left the sky

You remain
Even when the earth is shaken
You remain
Even when our kings have fallen
Every mountain standing tall
Will crash into the sea
You were, You are, You will be
Only You remain

Eternal
Immortal
Forever the same
You remain

Behind the Song:
"After seeing the tragedies in Haiti, God gave us this song. I heard a Haitian on the news say his whole world was literally swallowed up by the earth, and only God remained. Tragic and beautiful all at the same time." - MercyMe
