There are no other eyes to see the Lord for me but mine,

No lips to praise but the ones I was given,

There is no heart but mine, no chance like the one I have now;

There is no time but the one I find myself in right away;

There is no Lord but Jesus, reason why I should never look for another;

I have all to be as I am, to feel as good as I should, to obey as I must;

There is nothing that makes me miserable but my own sin, there is no unhappiness but my own disobedience;

I should not seek fault on others if God is not with me, I should not seek reason to blame;

Neither should I seek the company of another if my soul is empty in me;

For there is but one God, oh Israel, and there is just me who needs Him now.
