Just once was all it took
for Him to profess his love
reached out to hold our hands
and to say
He'd never leave us

Just once was all it took
for Him to know us all
listened to our hearts
and to say
He'd always love us

Just once was all it took
for Him to show that love
died upon the cross
and to say
Forgive them Father

Just once was all it took
and for that
I am truly grateful

Thank God
and it only happened
just once
