Lyrics
Verse 1
Kaya ko bang ibigay ang lahat
Kung sa sarili'y hindi na sapat
Kay raming kulang, 'di kayang punan
Laging sinusubok ang pusong pagal
Ngunit umaapaw 'Yong pagmamahal
Kay raming kulang ang 'Yong pinunan
Pre-Chorus
Ngayon pa ba magdududa?
Katapatan Mo ay subok na
Chorus
Ramdam Ka sa ihip ng hangin
Tanaw Ka sa bilyong mga tala
Liwanag ng buwan at araw
Ay patunay na Ika'y dakila
Gaya ng ibon sa kalangitan
Bawat kailanga'y tutugunan
Verse 2
Sabihin Mo lang ang Iyong salita
Handang makinig at sa 'Yo ay magtiwala
O, aking ama sa 'Yo lang aasa
Hilumin Mo ang pagdududa
Katapatan Mo ay sapat na
Chorus (Repeat)
Ramdam Ka sa ihip ng hangin
Tanaw Ka sa bilyong mga tala
Liwanag ng buwan at araw
Ay patunay na Ika'y dakila
Gaya ng ibon sa kalangitan
Ikaw ang tanging kailangan
Bridge (x2)
Panginoon Ikaw ang
Aming tanging kailangan
Walang hanggan at tunay
Ang Iyong katapatan
Outro
Gaya ng ibon sa kalangitan
Ikaw ang tanging kailangan
Aking Hesus, binigay Mo'ng lahat
Krus ng pag-ibig na higit sa sapat

Meaning & Inspiration
“Tanging Kailangan” by Victory Worship is a Filipino worship song whose title means “the only need.” It begins with an honest question about giving everything when the singer feels insufficient, with so much lacking and a weary heart often tested. The answer is that God’s love overflows and has filled what was missing.
The chorus points to the evidence of God’s faithfulness: His presence felt in the wind, seen in the billions of stars, and shown in the light of the moon and sun. Then it says that like the birds of the sky, every need will be met, an image close to Matthew 6:26. The verse that follows asks God to heal doubt and says that His faithfulness is enough, which echoes Lamentations 3:22-23.
The bridge repeats that God is the only need and that His faithfulness is endless and true, and the song ends by recalling that Jesus gave everything on a cross of love. The message is trust that God supplies what people lack.
