The “One Thing” by Fr. Richy Rich

(Verse 1) Yo, life is busy, everybody’s on the run,

Chasin’ after “many things” but missin’ the One.

Like Martha in the kitchen, caught up in the grind,

Tryin’ to do it all, but leaving the Lord behind.

But Mary got it right, yeah, she knew where to start,

Found her “one thing” and let it speak to her heart.

So when life gets crazy and you’re about to snap,

Remember what to do — it’s time to RAP.

(Chorus)

When you open the Bible to find your “one thing,”

Jesus makes good soil so your heart can sing.

Read, Ask, Pray — take it step by step,

What’s your “one thing”? Don’t you ever forget!

(Verse 2)

Some go to Mass thinkin’, “What’s the priest gonna say?

Will the homily connect? Will it guide me today?”

But here’s the truth you need, don’t miss the cue:

It’s not about the preacher — it’s about Jesus and you.

(Bridge)

So what’s your “one thing”? What’s He saying today?

Is it love? Is it peace? Is it time to obey?

Is it a call to forgive and conquer your fear?

Or draw close to His Heart and feel He’s right here?

It’s simple, it’s deep — it’s only “one thing,”

Just do it and let the chorus sing.

(Chorus)

When you open the Bible to find your “one thing,”

Jesus makes good soil so your heart can sing.

Read, Ask, Pray — take it step by step,

What’s your “one thing”? Don’t you ever forget!

(verse 3)

Yo, one more thing to make the lovers sing…

Romans 8:28 says it clear and true,

“All things work for good” when His love’s in you.

This is the power of the “one thing”—it’s all that you need,

Let Christ bring good soil and plant that seed.

So if you’re feeling the thorns, don’t get caught in the trap,

Just open up the Word — it’s time to RAP.

(Chorus)

When you open the Bible to find your “one thing,”

Jesus makes good soil so your heart can sing.

Read, Ask, Pray — take it step by step,

What’s your “one thing”? Don’t you ever forget!
