I’ll Worship Only At The Feet Of Jesus – Gaither Vocal Band
“I’ll Worship Only at the Feet of Jesus” is a Christian hymn performed by the Gaither Vocal Band, a well-known Southern Gospel group. The song was written by Gloria Gaither, Bill Gaither, and Robert J. Arnold, and was first recorded in 1983.
The lyrics of the song express a deep devotion to Jesus Christ and a desire to worship him alone. The song opens with the lines, “I’ll worship only at the feet of Jesus / His cup alone my holy grail will be / For He alone deserves my praise and blessing / I’ll worship only at the feet of Jesus.”
The song goes on to declare the singer’s commitment to living a life of faith, and to trusting in Jesus as the only source of salvation and hope. The chorus proclaims, “I’ll worship only at the feet of Jesus / Where I can feel His presence near my soul / There is no other throne of grace beside Him / I’ll worship only at the feet of Jesus.”
“I’ll Worship Only at the Feet of Jesus” has become a beloved hymn in many Christian communities, and has been recorded by numerous artists. The Gaither Vocal Band’s version of the song is known for its powerful harmonies and heartfelt delivery, and is considered by many to be a classic of Southern Gospel music.
Lyrics
I went to visit the shrine of plenty
But found its storerooms all filled with dust
I bowed at altars of gold and silver
But as I knelt there, they turned to rust
So I’ll worship only at the feet of Jesus
His cup alone—my Holy Grail
They’ll be no other gods before Him
Just Jesus only will never fail
The call of fortune made me a pilgrim
To journey to fame’s promised heights
But as I climbed, the promise faded
And wind blew lonely all through the night
Just desert dust and empty shadow
All promises that turn to lie
The gods of earth fail and betray me
But You alone are Truth and Life
They’ll be no other gods before Him
Just Jesus only will never fail
Gloria Gaither, William J. Gaither and J.D. Miller

Live for Jesus today, and you will go to heaven by seeking the Lord, ask Him for forgiveness for your sins, and accept Him into your life just as this beautiful music states by the Gaither Brothers.
