Desperate For YOU LORD!

 

Are you, as a Follower of JESUS desperate for more of GOD in your life?  Then this Article is for you, and will help you draw much closer to GOD, and before you finish reading and praying throughout this long, and purposeful Article, you will be along HIS Path of Beauty, further than you ever thought possible.  "JESUS, I want to be closer to YOU!"

The following song is a rap, rhythm & blues tune by the Musical Group called Priesthood that echoes the very feelings of the Follower of JESUS who wants more than anything to satisfy their desperation for more of GOD in their life.

Let the words of this song speak to your heart.  

Closer

(1st verse) Dear Lord, sweet Jesus, I wanna get... (Chorus): Closer to you Jesus. I wanna be...(Chorus): Closer than just friends. Closer to you. Just a little bit, just a little bit. (Chorus): Closer to you.
Just a little bit(x3)

uhh! Sense the day of our first encounter. Cant see myself living without Ya'. Im out to please Ya', 'cause I need Ya'. Everyday with Jesus gets sweet'ta and sweet'ta. Its time to get deeper and deeper. You get stronger every time I get weaker. I'll greet Ya' with a red carpet laid out, its for certain when I'm hurting you wont fade out. Your the only way out. No doubt, how about you and me together, forever, its my pleasure. More precious than hidden treasure your the one that I wanna get next ta'. Never let Ya' pass me by, ask me why, 'cause you satisfy my every need, indeed. Id be in ruins, so I'm pursuing you with a passion its an attraction that cant be over looked, uhh, because you got me hooked can you feel me?

(Chorus): Just to be close to you Lord. That's all I wanna do. Just to be close to you Lord. The feeling so true. Just to be close to you Lord. That's where I want to be. Just to be close to you Lord. When its you and me.

( 2nd verse): You got me seeking to find a way to be with you. With no obstacles to block my view. Though Lord your on high you look upon the lowly. So humbly may I approach your throne slowly. Its only you that I wanna see. In your presence Lord is where I wanna be. That's what I wanna do with a passion. Help me Lord to put my words into action. Subtraction of my flesh is what its gonna take. So in seeking you I make my big escape. Enter in your gates surrounded by the flood I'm non-existent I'm swallowed up in your love. I'm running to your arms lifting up my hands, just to touch the warmth of your presence again. I give you my heart and I know its not much but it multiplies when you add your touch.

( 3rd verse): Thank you Jesus(X2). 'cause I believe its time to get deeper and deeper. Till the whole wide world is a born again believer. They can follow me as I follow the leader. Just wanna get real closer then close, closer then most, closer to the Lord of Hosts. 'Cause the closer I get to you Lord. (The better you make me feel) The closer I get to you Lord. (Your love has captured me) I just wanna get into the essence, of the presence of my God. 'Cause He's the holiest of them all, my Lord. Gotta get your love(x3) Your love, you know, I gotta get it Lord. 'Cause your the one that I be living for Jesus!

(That's all I wanna do. The feeling so true. That's where I wanna be. Its just you and me!) I just wanna get real closer to you, to you, to you.(x4)

I just wanna get real closer then close, closer than close, closer then close. I just wanna get real closer then most, closer than most, closer than most. (repeat) I just wanna get real closer to you, to you, to you. I just...

Is this your heart today?  Is your heart so hungry for the LORD'S Presence that you will continue your quest until you discover how to live a life that is fulfills your desperation for more of GOD.  If this is you, then keep on reading.

As the chorus said; "Your heart cries out; "I just wanna get real closer then most, closer than most, closer than most.  I just wanna get real closer to you, to you, to you my JESUS."
