Jenn Johnson and Bethel Music's 'In Over My Head' is a worship song about surrendering fully to God's presence and love. The lyrics express a deep longing for more of God, moving beyond religious boxes into a place of total trust. The imagery of being 'in over my head' describes losing control yet finding freedom in God's overwhelming love. The song emphasizes a heart that is willing to go wherever God leads, whether sinking or swimming, because being immersed in God is beautiful. It encourages believers to abandon themselves to God's love and let Him redefine their understanding of who He is.

Lyrics Verified by Editorial Team

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


And further and further my heart moves away from the shore

Whatever it looks like, whatever may come I am Yours

And 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

Then 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
