Lyrics
We're gonna live in the power of freedom
We're gonna stand in Your ways and Your truth
All of my life I will give over to You
My soul and my heart I'll keep
nothing from You
Let every knee bow, tongue confess
Confess to the world let them know
That we are
All for the one whose love is for all
You gave Your son to save the world
We Your people are going to stand
and lift Your Name so high
All for the one who gave it all
Gave up His life and freed my soul
We your people are going to stand and lift Your
Name so high
We're not gonna sit back and just go to heaven
We're letting the world know that they can come to
Our one sole purpose is loving You Jesus
Loving You more and sharing Your truth

Meaning & Inspiration
All for the One joins worship with Christian witness. The verses describe a life yielded to God, with soul and heart withheld from nothing, while the chorus centers on the Father giving the Son to save the world. That language clearly recalls John 3:16. The call for every knee to bow and every tongue to confess also closely follows Philippians 2:10–11, giving the song a direct biblical foundation for its public confession of Jesus.
The lyric does not treat faith as a passive wait for heaven. Instead, it portrays believers as people who stand, lift the name of Jesus, love him, and share his truth. That outward movement makes the song especially suited to a mission theme, since devotion leads to proclamation. Its repeated phrase ‘all for the one’ gathers personal surrender, congregational praise, and concern for the world into one purpose. The result is a concise call to live openly for Christ and make his saving love known.
