Words and music by
Farren/Robinson/Smith/Thompson

Verse 1
Who else commands all the hosts of heaven
Who else could make every king bow down
Who else can whisper and darkness trembles
Only a Holy God

Verse 2
What other beauty demands such praises
What other splendour outshines the sun
What other majesty rules with justice
Only a Holy God

Chorus
Come and behold Him
The One and the Only
Cry out, sing holy
Forever a Holy God
Come and worship the Holy God

Verse 3
What other glory consumes like fire
What other power can raise the dead
What other name remains undefeated
Only a Holy God

Chorus
Come and behold Him
The One and the Only
Cry out, sing holy
Forever a Holy God
Come and worship the Holy God

Verse 4
Who else could rescue me from my failing
Who else would offer His only Son
Who else invites me to call Him Father
Only a Holy God
Only my Holy God

Chorus
Come and behold Him
The One and the Only
Cry out, sing holy
Forever a Holy God
Come and worship the Holy God

As a former worship pastor of 20+ years, I truly appreciate the theological richness of your lyrics and singable melodies. Keep doing what you're doing...

[danielwithers]

This is a great song. But you know what's even greater? Our love for Jesus Christ, can I get an Amen?

[ethangilmore]

You guys seriously blend modern musical style with beautifully rich lyrics. I'm not sure why more worship leaders aren't using your music with their congregations. I love what y'all are making and can't wait for the new album!!

[carlhargrove]

Recently, I played this song in a class I teach at The Master's Seminary as an example of making praise a part of your prayer time. Great that it's pleasing to the ear, maturing mind, and emotions. Come worship!

[AlexisBraun-zvpm]

What a great group to discover shortly after becoming a Christian

[thefountainsofhopeministry]

as a theologian and a pastor i really comment the sound theology in your songs God bless you

[Tryingtofindmyway]

As a new friend of Jesus, I can't tell you how my heart cries out for music like this.

Keep doing what you are doing.

[grgracefreight]

Please stay true to your calling. Don’t pursue other talents, or church settings and their glimmer, but the Holy God.

[chandlerwatson]

The Church needs more songs like this. Thank you, CityAlight for your faithfulness to the only Holy God.

[robbarber]

True praise and worship. How refreshing to have a group that is praising GOD as opposed to seeking praise for themselves 😃

[godschild]

Only a Holy God can fill my heart with hope when everything around me indicates I should give up. It's by faith and not by sight that I walk. Victory is mine and through Him who's inside me I shall overcome. In Jesus name.

[johnj.iamaio]

Ah, singing about the Holiness of God and other Attributes of His, refreshes the weary soul. Thank you for encouraging us to Worship through the beauty of music. Take it from a drummer, proud of you guys and gals.

[agnesromagos]

Everytime i listen to this song i really cried ... ."the God who invites me to call Him Father is a Holy God and me a sinner."

[FaithAdela-it]

God is the only one and true God . imagine who could rescue you from your failing. Run to him He never disappoints.❤ He loves you

[gracieclements]

This song doesn't get enough recognition, so many people need to hear this and take it in; myself included. I listen to it every morning to start the day

[benfleming]

Seriously guys!!! keep writing these amazing worship songs and thank you our church are so richly blessed by you music!!

[cecilcogswell]

Praise the Lord for you exceptional contributions to congregational singing. Written in a suitable key and not a gymnastic exercise in vocals, bringing worship back to the people. Well done! We use your music in our worship small group and it is fabulous. Very few YouTube lyrics are done at the right timing (preceding vocals) in order to read & sing along with the band. Love the worship setting style which makes you feel like you are standing in front of the musicians and in the presence of the Lord. Keep up the good work everyone and be blessed for your excellent contributions to virtual worship experiences.

[Khanyisile]

Just found the CityALight today and have been blessed with their music. Thank you.

[kaylashore]

Still I continue to be amazed by CityAlights worship songs. All of them have amazing, strong and true words. These are the types of songs we need. Not songs that have wishy washy words or songs with sound effects. I love this band.

[Tropicalbliss]

You are my favorite gospel singing group. Thanks for keeping it pure and about God only. God bless your ministry.
