Lyrics:
It’s been 18 months and 14 Days
Bobby can’t get him a job
Repo man’s gonna take his van I hear
Bobby’s giving up on God
He needs a hand up and not a hand out
Hey, everybody’s gotta suffer
Don’t worry, don’t worry
It’s only my brother
Where is that poverty line
I’ve never really seen it
Look around I’m doing fine
I’m not really sure I believe it
On the other side of town schools are falling down
But me I’m riding in style
Don’t worry, don’t worry
It’s only a child
There’s a homeless woman with a shopping cart
Living on the street
Lord knows she can’t come in here where the pretty people meet
We’re all dressed in our Sunday best
And she smiles when she sees us
Don’t worry
It’s only Jesus
There’s a face in the mirror
A man that I can be
Lord, won’t you open my eyes
Won’t you help me see
A hungry child needs more than a piece of bread
Brother needs a job to get ahead
And the homeless need a place to lay their head
And as much as I’ve been giving
I could never give enough
Don’t worry
It’s only love
It’s only love
When you’re lonely, cold and empty
Only one thing to fill you up
And it’s only, and it’s only, and it’s only
It’s only love



























Sounds like Danny.Goes with Love revolution on SHF and Joyce Meyers message.Sometimes i wish music wasn’t overpowering just want to hear that voice.
this is a classical country song and really touching!
Erika is also working on a downloadable MP3 version of just the song.
Thanks Erika & Amy. Awesome!
thank you for posting this! I love it! This song is going to blow up the country charts!
and the lyrics, thank you for posting this lyrics!
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR SHARING HIS INTERVIEW WITH FM106.1, I SIGNED UP YESTERDAY WITH THE STATION SO I COULD HEAR HIS SINGLE TODAY, I LIVE IN NY…I HAVE TO SAY I ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT..COULDN’T STOP CRYING…HIS MESSAGE WILL DEFINITELY GET ACROSS TO MANY LISTENERS AND I THINK EVEN THE HATERS WILL LOVE HIM FOR THIS…CAN’T WAIT TO HEAR HIS ENTIRE ALBUM…IF ANY OF YOU CAN GET A MESSAGE TO HIM, PLEASE LET HIM KNOW I AM SO PROUD OF HIM, I FEEL LIKE HE’S LIKE MY OWN SON…GOOD LUCK DANNY, YOU DESERVE THIS…<3
Thank you Thank you.
LOVE IT!!! Gorgeous!!! I’m so excited about the direction Danny’s going in. Country’s going to be a great fit for him…and he still gets to make the most of his beautiful, beautiful voice! Sorry for all the exclamation points!!
Danny, Danny, Danny. What more can I say. I love it!
Please, please, please buy the song when it comes out on itunes, Amazon, etc. Also please request it from your local country stations.
This song is everything we thought it would be! Heartfelt, soulful, amazing – truly fits Danny! It kind of felt like a cross between WHTM and JTTW. Two of my favorites!
Danny if you read this, this is only the start. Your career will go far, because of who you are – Music with a message and passion!
Cindy, do you think this is a song that can crossover to the Christian stations?
Amy this is Kathy and you know I thought the same thing when I listened. What a beautiful song, beautiful singing and beautiful man singing. You can tell he puts his whole being in this song and beleives all the words.
Amy, I totally think this could cross over to Christian. DEFINITELY…it will have NO problem doing so, IMHO.
We played Carrie Underwood’s “Jesus Take the Wheel” when it was popular, and I believe we’ve played a few other country tunes that had Christian overtones too.
In fact, I’m sending this link to the guy who programs our music. He’s a big Danny fan anyway, and lives in Milwaukee.
Also, many times a song will be recorded several different ways…for example, to market it to a different format, they might take out some of the more obvious country sounds in the orchestration. I’m sure they’ll do that with this song.
I’m feeling VERY good about the musical direction he’s taking.
If Adam Lambert is focused on entertaining us–Danny Gokey is focused on blessing us! (While he’s entertaining us, of course.)
oops my spelling is not so good. Sorry everyone.
Cindy you are so right about Danny blessing us. but that is Danny. He is being blessed and his blessing just flow out and all around to all of us.
Cindy, great statement…couldn’t agree more.
If Adam Lambert is focused on entertaining us–Danny Gokey is focused on blessing us! (While he’s entertaining us, of course.)
Thanks so much for putting this up on youtube so we can listen to it until iTunes releases it for download!
Cindy, is it a good thing to send this to my local Country and Christian radio or should I let the management handle that? I’ve heard it helps and then I’ve heard it hurts the artist when fans do stuff like that.

OMG! It’s unbelievably great!! Thanks for sharing with us!!
What a beautiful song, a beautiful voice & heartfelt message! I’m so happy for Danny and for everyone here
breath-taking
Amy, I honestly don’t think it can hurt, if you don’t do it in a pushy manner.
If his reps are doing their job, they WILL contact the station’s music directors and try to promote the single. But I don’t think it would hurt if you demonstrate that there is an audience eager to hear it.
Amy, thank you SO much for this. Beautiful. This is going to be a huge hit, I can feel it.
Thank you so much for posting. I’ve listened now to his song many times and I can’t listen even once without tears streaming down my face. This is pure DANNY! He doesn’t disapoint. I do love good country music with a message and this is it! A memerable melody, inspiring words, pleasant to the ear and georgeous voice, beautiful music, touching my heart and I’m sure many, many thousands. I’m also a christian but I don’t listen to much christian music, but this would work with that too.
Danny you are such a dear soul and a beautiful person that makes full use of the talent God gave you. May God bless you and your career. You have a special place in my heart.

Sorry -the first one didn’t copy right-this should work
I love this song! IMO, the best song released so far of any of the Idols. I think it has the possibility of not only being a country hit, but christian and pop, too.

mrbjorke: @TonyThomas Did you hear the Danny Gokey song yet? http://bit.ly/4q7goh
Thank You for the download, I promise to buy the song from itunes Dec. 14. Danny J, what a beautiful song, you touch our hearts with “Its Only”. This is such a great song for what is going on in people’s lives right now in our country. This song is going to have such an impact, I got the chills with the tears.
I could not be more prouder of you if you were my own son.
We start food drives this week for the Holidays, Omaha Food Pantry is at bare because of the need already evan before Thanksgiving and Christmas. Open Door Mission needs, needs, food for all they will feed, food drives are planned all over the area and I think this song can make an impact in this area.
Again, thank you to all who post the info on what is going on with Danny, very nice.
This is so exciting I could not be more happier for you young man. You got a hit!
Blessings, Ms Sharon
Does anyone that has worked or is connected to the music industry know why they released his single to one station today and not all stations simultaneously?
Also, why the long gap until you can purchase it on itunes? 38 days seems like a long time to wait! Not sure how this all works.
I LOVE THIS SONG A WHOLE LOT.
DANNY YOU ARE SO BLESSED!
KEEP ON LIVING YOUR DREAM.. ITS ONLY GONNA GET BETTER BY EACH DAY.
LOVE YOU!
This song is just about as perfect as we could get! Absolutely amazing!
Danny has set the bar very high with his debut song. “It’s Only” is the perfect blend of stunning, distinctive vocals and a beautiful message that comes from the heart. Danny has delivered exactly what he promised. His album can’t be released soon enough!
