The Official Live video for “One Thing" by Sovereign Grace Music.
The Bible says Jesus gave himself for us not only to pay for our sins, but "to purify for himself a people for his own possession who are zealous for good works" (Titus 2:14). Being forgiven by God isn't a replacement for seeking to please God, but the foundation of it. While the world pursues earthly pleasures, possessions, and power, those who belong to Christ Jesus are consumed with one passion: to please their Savior. J.I. Packer uses the words of British pastor J.C. Ryle to describe that kind of individual: "He only sees one thing, he cares for one thing, he lives for one thing, he is swallowed up in one thing: and that one thing is to please God." As Christians, may we be known as a people of "one thing."

LYRICS
Jesus, You came to the earth
Dying the death I deserved
Freed me to love and to serve for Your glory
You pulled me out of the flames
Covered my guilt and my shame
Gave me a hope and a name for Your glory
So whatever I do, one thing I pursue
I want to please You, O God, all of my days
Your mercy has dawned and now I can see
I want to please You, O God, in all of my ways
No matter the cost I want to please You
Whether I’m honored or cursed
Seen as the last or the first
You’ll give me faith to endure for Your glory
Let me be broken or blessed
Use me in life or in death
I want to spend every breath for Your glory
So whatever I do, one thing I pursue
You bought me, You own me, the love You have shown me
Has captured my heart and devotion
My life has been paid for, I know I was made for
This one thing, this one thing
