Couplet 1

You ask me why I lean in close
To a God that I can't see
And why I still believe
That prayer works with in uncertainty
You ask me to explain it
I still can't found a way
All I know to tell you
All I know to say

Refrain

It’s been the only thing
That's ever worked
From the highest of my highs
To the lowest of my worst
The hand that's always steady
No burden's ever been too heavy
Just Jesus and
The power of His word
It’s been the only thing
That's ever worked

Couplet 2

To some it may seem foolish
Some will never understand
But I know who I was
And I know who I am
Beauty from the ashes
Is something only He can do
He's the only I’ve ever known
To make dry bones start to move

Refrain

It’s been the only thing
That's ever worked
From the highest of my highs
To the lowest of my worst
The hand that's always steady
No burden's ever been too heavy
Just Jesus and
The power of His word
It’s been the only thing
That's ever worked

Pont

Maybe for the first time
Maybe for the last
What have you got to lose now
Won’t you give Him another chance

Refrain

It’s been the only thing
That's ever worked
From the highest of my highs
To the lowest of my worst
The hand that's always steady
No burden's ever been too heavy
Just Jesus and
The power of His word
It’s been the only thing
That's ever worked
