In Over my Head

When Jaki referenced me in her lyrics post it was because I had written this post, saved it as a draft, but not published and then deleted it. But after she posted some music lyrics I decided to re-do this post. Jaki sang this song at retreat and it was such a beautiful song to go with the theme of Fullness in Christ. Thomas is a musician and for him he likes lyrics of songs but I can tell for him it's more the beat and the music he really loves, but for me it has always been about the poetry of the words. Getting to why I wanted to share this song with you. Most people sing along to songs but don't really deeply think about the lyrics unless you actually read them. I love to pull up the youtube video and look at the lyrics while i'm listening. And I will post the link to the youtube video at the bottom. Watch it! Bethel did a bunch of live songs in the most AMAZING location it's one reason I could watch the video over and over.

I have come to this place in my life
I’m full but I’ve not satisfied
This longing to have more of You
ANd i can feel it my heart is convinced
I’m thirsty my soul can’t be quenched
You already know this but still
Come and do whatever You want to

I’m standing knee deep but I’m out where I've never been
And i feel You coming and I hear Your voice on the wind

Would you come and tear down the boxes that I have tried to put You in
Let love come teach me who You are again
Would you Take me back to the place where my heart
Was only about You And all I wanted was just to be with You?
Come and do whatever You want to

Further and further my heart moves away from the shore
Whatever it looks like, whatever may come I am Yours
Further and further my heart moves away from the shore
Whatever it looks like, whatever may come I am Yours

Then You crash over me and I’ve lost control but I’m free
I’m going under, I’m in over my head
And You crash over me, and that's where You want me to be
I’m going under, I’m in over my head
Whether I sink, whether I swim
It makes no difference when I’m beautifully in over my head
Whether I sink, whether I swim
It makes no difference when I’m beautifully in over my head
I’m Beautifully in over my head
I’m Beautifully in over my head



And Jesus declared, "I am the bread of life. Whoever comes to me will never go hungry. And whoever believes in me will never go thirsty." John 6:35
