    Story Behind the Song
    This song came during a time when Vanessa and I were going through some difficult times with our kids. To lay a background to the situation: We live in a time where the world is telling us that there are many roads to God. Everyone from the media to our government is informing us that no one religion is right alone, but, rather, all faiths are right. During these difficult times it is difficult for Christians to maintain their position that Christ is the only way. Yet this confession is the basis of our faith and provides us with a dependable God whom we can trust in. Ttherefore, those who waver in their faith will find themselves trusting in those very things that the world promotes, rather than our ever-faithful God. This is the position that our children have been in at times, causing compromise and failure.

    Vanessa was just at her end and very concerned about the future of our children’s faith that is being constantly attacked and watered down by the world’s unbelief. In the midst of that trial the words “Only You” came to me as a testimony of the fact that there are not any answers to life or roads to travel on other than the one Jesus has laid out for us. Only He can lead and guide us, save us, is faithful and will be with us to the end. Therefore, we put our trust in Him and Him alone.

    These words have always been very comforting to Vanessa and were even more so during this difficult times. We got through the ordeal because we, as a family, determined to put our faith only in Jesus.

    It was ironic how the music to this song came about. I got a request over the Internet for an instrumental version of “Closer Than A Friend.” I wasn’t able to use the old tracs, so I had to start all over. The resultant instrumental turned out so good that I decided to re-write the chorus and have Vanessa sing it for re-release on the Internet. The results were very satisfying!

    We sincerely pray that, as you listen to this song, you are encouraged to put your trust in Jesus and Jesus only. Though the world is very critical of our position, we can boldly and without fear say “Only you” to our God and expect Him to bless the results.

    Lyrics
    Only You

    Though the world may fall upon me, Lord I shall not be afraid,
    Cause I know You are Lord, You are my friend.
    And I’ll never serve another, for You are all I’ll ever need,
    Yes I know, You’ll be with me to the end.

    Only You can lead and guide me,
    And will see me through the night.
    Only you have died to save me,
    You made the sacrifice.
    Only You alone are faithful,
    You will be with me till the end.
    I will trust in You,
    Only You, O Lord, my Friend.

    Though I thought my life was lost, I found it all to be in You,
    Now I know, You are Lord, You are my friend.
    When I thought I was forsaken, You held me in Your loving hands,
    Yes I know, You’ll be with me to the end.

    Only You can lead and guide me,
    And will see me through the night.
    Only you have died to save me,
    You made the sacrifice.
    Only You alone are faithful,
    You will be with me till the end.
    I will trust in You,
    Only You, O Lord, my Friend.

    Only You can lead and guide me,
    And will see me through the night.
    Only you have died to save me,
    You made the sacrifice.
    Only You alone are faithful,
    You will be with me till the end.
    I will trust in You,
    Only You, O Lord, my Friend.

    I will trust in You,
    Only You, O Lord, my Friend.
    I will trust in You,
    Only You, O Lord, my Friend.
