 I heard someone  say the other  day
 They'd seen  in me true love displayed
Blessed  by something I  had done for them
 No sooner did they speak those words
 I found myself somehow disturbed
 Uneasy as I took their compliment
 Because I  know the heart  inside this man
 And I know  the truth  of who I am
The  only thing that's good in me is Jesus
The  only thing that's good in me is Jesus
I've  lived long enough to know  no matter what this life may  show
 The only thing that's good in me is Jesus
 If you could walk  the hallways of  my heart
And  see things as they really are
 I wonder  if you  might be surprised
 Seeing faded  walls of pride  and fear
Rooms  I've filled with faithless tears
 And corners  where I've stood  in compromise
 Oh but you'd see  the work  his grace has done
 And you'd  know just how far  I've come
 The only thing that's good in me is Jesus
 The only thing that's good in me is Jesus
 I'll live long enough to know no matter what this life may show
 The only thing that's good in me is Jesus
And  in a thousand years
 When the dust of this world  clears
 And I look back on  my life and see in perfect light
 Yeah, yeah, the only thing that's good in me is Jesus
 The only thing that's good in me is Jesus
 I know me well enough to know yeah
 The only thing that's good in me, yeah
 The only thing that's good in me is Jesus
 I know me well enough to know no matter what this life may show
 The only thing that's good in me is Jesus, Jesus
 It's you, it's you, it's you, only you
 End on A.
 God Bless!

They'd [C2]seen in me true love displayed
[D]Blessed by something [Em]I had done for [C2]them

No sooner did they speak those words
I found myself somehow disturbed
Uneasy as I took their compliment

And I [C2]know the [Em]truth of who I [D]am

[A]The only thing that's good in me is Je[E]sus
[F#m]The only thing that's good in me is Jesus
[D]I've lived long enough to [F#m]know no matter what this life may[A] show
The only thing that's good in me is [E]Jesus

If you could [D]walk the hallways [Em]of my heart
[C2]And see things as they really are
I [D]wonder if [Em]you might be [C2]surprised
