Presence (My Heart's Desire)
Newsboys' song 'It's My Desire' is a worshipful expression of longing for God's presence. The lyrics focus on the singer's deep yearning to experience God's glory, mercy, and healing touch. The repeated chorus asks the Lord to fill the singer's life with His presence and for the Holy Spirit to abide. The song emphasizes a personal, intimate desire for God rather than specific requests or circumstances. It reflects themes of surrender and prayer, as the singer humbly seeks God's nearness and acknowledges His worthiness.
I lift up my voice
To The King, The King of glory
I hold out my hands
To The One who is worthy
I long for Your presence
I long, Lord, I need Your touch
[Chorus:]
Come, oh Lord, and fill up my life
With the light of Your presence
This is my heart's desire
Oh Father, come and let Your spirit abide
I long for Your presence
This is my heart's desire
I long to be washed
In the well of Your mercy
I long to be warmed
By the fire of Your glory
I long for Your presence
I long for Your healing touch
[Chorus:]
Come oh Lord and fill up my life
With the light of Your presence
This is my heart's desire
Oh Father, come and let Your spirit abide
I long for Your presence
This is my heart's desire
It's my desire
(I wanna feel Your presence)
Lord, it's my desire
(I wanna feel Your presence)
Lord, You're my desire
(I wanna feel Your presence)
I wanna feel Your presence
I wanna feel Your presence
I wanna feel Your presence - Jesus
[Chorus:]
Come oh Lord and fill up my life
With the light of Your presence
This is my heart's desire (this is my heart's desire, oh...)
Come and let Your spirit abide
I long for Your presence (presence...)
This is my heart's desire (this is my heart's desire, oh...)
Come oh Lord and fill up my life (fill up my life)
With the light of Your presence
This is my heart's desire (this is my heart's desire, oh...)
Come and let Your spirit abide
I long for Your presence
This is my heart's desire
It's my desire
Lord, You're my desire
Lord, You're my desire
