[Verse 1]
I love the story of the prodigal
'Cause it sounds a lot like mine
From scared and alone to coming back home
To a father's arms open wide
[Verse 2]
I love the story of the thief on the cross
He was guilty and the whole world knew
But the arms of grace stretched out that day
And said, "I'm doing this for you"
[Chorus]
There is one who leaves the ninety-nine
And He won't stop searching 'til He finds
The one, the one, the one
Ask me how I know that kind of love
And that there's a God who won't give up
On the one, the one, the one
'Cause praise God I was the one
(Praise God I was the one)
[Verse 3]
When I've fallen for the one millionth time
And even when I give up looking for me
I lift up my head and see You again
Your mercy reminding me
[Chorus]
There is one who leaves the ninety-nine
And He won't stop searching 'til He finds
The one, the one, the one
Ask me how I know that kind of love
And that there's a God who won't give up
On the one, the one, the one
'Cause praise God I was the one
[Bridge]
That He saved, that He changed
That His love brought back to life
And I'm proof that grace
Leaves no one left behind
I'm saved, I'm changed
And this heart's come back to life
Now I'm proof that grace
Leaves no one left behind
[Chorus]
There is one who leaves the ninety-nine
And He won't stop searching 'til He finds
The one (The one)
The one (The one)
The one (The one)
Ask me how I know that kind of love
And that there's a God who won't give up
On the one (The one)
The one (The one)
The one (The one)
'Cause praise God I was the one
[Outro]
That He saved (The one)
That He changed (The one)
That His love brought back to life
And I'm proof (The one)
That grace (The one)
Leaves no one left behind (The one)
I'm saved (The one)
I'm changed (The one)
And this heart's come back to life (The one)
Now I'm proof (The one)
That grace (The one)
Leaves no one left behind
