Lyrics

An Audience of One

I don’t expect you to understand; God leads us all in His own way
And if He should bring me to your mind, please feel free to pray
For as I seek to follow Him step by step, I’m not without my doubts
But one thing I’m sure of is His faithfulness and He will work things out

Refrain
For I live this life obeying only one voice
Christ has the final say everyday in every choice
And I live this life before an audience of One
There’s only One I’ll answer to, as will you, when our work is done

I don’t expect you to understand for my path is rather strange
But leading the way as I travel along is the One who does not change
I would choose a more predictable route but it’s not up to me
For I’ve tried to determine my course before and it led to misery (refrain)

I don’t expect you to understand for I walk by faith, not sight
While the world may disagree with me, God’s Word guides me in choosing right
For Noah obediently built the ark while the sky was clear and blue
And Abraham willingly left his home not knowing where he was going to

Refrain (modified)
For they lived their lives obeying only one voice
God had the final say everyday in every choice
And they lived their lives before an audience of One
There’s only One they’ll answer to, as will you, when all work is done

No, I don’t expect you to understand; God leads us all in His own way
And if He should bring me to your mind, please feel free to pray
