Lord, I can’t be satisfied with anything but You

Lord

I can’t be satisfied

With anything but You.

Take me deeper

take me higher

In my consecration.

From shallow

broken promises

From my hesitation.

I want the real thing

Lord.

I want the real thing.

Lord

come now

my morning light

That I might start again.

Day is dawning

night is fading

And it’s constellation

Of fears and failures shall retreat

In the presence of this heat.

O great consuming light!

Devour all my night.

Lord

I long for higher ground

To live above the world.

Freed from all the earthly fetters

I need elevation.

There must be something more

I know

Someplace higher to explore.

O raise me up to You!

No more an earthly view.

Lord

go deeper in my being

And set Your anchors there.

Take root downward

bear fruit upward

Reach your destination

Till all Your life is flowing through

And I’m a branch expressing You.

“As deep calls unto deep”

This is what I seek.
