Lyrics
There is only one who lived without sin
When God s only Son walked among men
There is only one who could pay sins price God's only Son
A perfect sacrifice there is only one whose Blood is to flow
If you trust in Him you ll be whiter than snow
He's done everything you and I ever need
To take us to heaven someday
It all depends on if we believe that Jesus is the only way
There is only one(only one) who came to die
When God's only Son was crucified
There is only one(only one) who forever will stand
In Heaven someday with nail-scarred hands
There is only one(only one) whose face we will see
God s only Son like Him we will be
He s done everything you and I ever need
To take us to Heaven someday
It all depends on if we believe that Jesus is the only way
There is only one(only one)
There is only one(only one)
He's done everything you and I ever need
To take us to Heaven someday
It all depends on if we believe that Jesus is the only way
There is only one whose face we will see
God s only Son like Him we will be
There is only one

Meaning & Inspiration
There Is Only One presents Jesus as uniquely sinless, sufficient, and able to reconcile sinners to God. The opening lines move from His life without sin to His sacrificial death, making the payment for sin the central claim of the song. Images of cleansing and nail-scarred hands connect forgiveness with the crucifixion rather than with human merit.
The repeated title also supports the confession that Jesus is the only way to the Father. Faith is described as the response to what Christ has already accomplished, while the hope of heaven and future likeness to Him gives the lyric an expectant conclusion. The song can be read alongside New Testament passages about the sinlessness of Christ, His bearing of sin, and salvation through Him. Its direct repetition keeps attention on one subject: the singular identity and saving work of Gods Son.
