Anthony Brown and Group TherAPy's song "Want You More" is a heartfelt prayer for deeper devotion and surrender to God. The lyrics honestly acknowledge the daily struggle to live a life that pleases God, admitting failures and the temptation to conform to worldly standards. Despite feeling alone and falling short, the singer resolves to keep trying, motivated by the hope of hearing God say "Well done." The song culminates in a declaration of finally wanting God more, blending personal confession with a classic hymn reference. It's a worshipful plea for help in desiring God above all else.
Lyrics Verified by Editorial Team
It's a fight everyday, every day I rise and every day I try
to kill the things in me that don't look like You
And if I said that every day it goes that way I'd be lying
Instead I smile to hide the shame that I feel inside
It seems like everybody else has found the way except me
And even though I feel alone, I'll never give up trying
No, I'll never give up trying
Because seeing You smile will make it all worthwhile
When the battle is won I want to hear You say, "Well done"
Lord!
I really wanna want You more
Help me to want You more
I need to want You more
Oh, Lord!
I really wanna want You more
Help me to want You more
I need to want You more
It gets hard to reject what the world accepts
They may say it's okay, but I would rather be pleasing to You
Every day after day I try to live that way
But it seems that I fail, Lord
I fall down again, have to try again
It seems like everybody else has found the way except me
And even though I feel alone, I'll never give up trying
No, I'll never give up trying
Because seeing You smile will make it all worthwhile
When the battle is won I want to hear You say, "Well done"
Oh, Lord!
I really wanna want You more
Help me to want You more
I need to want You more
Oh, Lord!
I really wanna want You more
Help me to want You more
I need to want You more
Lord!
I really wanna want You more
Help me to want You more
I need to want You more
Oh, Lord!
I really wanna want You more
Help me to want You more
I need to want You more
I need to want You more
Help me to want You more
I need to want You more
Help me to want You more
Oh, Lord!
I need to want You more
Help me to want You more
Oh, Lord!
I need to want You more
Help me to want You more
I need Thee
Oh, I need Thee
Every hour I need Thee
Oh, bless me now, my Savior
I come! I come to Thee
I run! I run to Thee
I come to
I finally want you more
Yes, Lord, I want you more
I finally want you more
Yes, Lord, I want you more
I want you, I want you
Yes, Lord, I want you more
I want you, I want you
Yes, Lord, I want you more
