Story behind the song
I wrote this song sitting on my living room floor late one night after reading a blog by a strong Christian woman. I was touched by her transparency and her openness about her relationship with the Lord. Caught up in the busyness of my own life, I desired and yearned for that type of depth in my walk with God. This song is about my feelings at the time.
Lyrics
"Deeper" © By Karen Naber Vs. 1: There's an aching in my heart that longs to know You more There's a whisper in the darkness that I can't ignore Take away the mask I wear to hide from the truth As I sit here in the stillness, Lord, my heart cries out for You, for You Chorus: Draw me deeper, cleanse me from within Wash away my pride and fill this emptiness Lord, please take me to a place I cannot hide Far from all that glitters in this superficial life Draw me deeper (deeper, deeper...) Vs. 2: Consume me with Your love until my heart just melts Let me look into Your eyes 'til I see nothing else Fill me with Your Spirit and a love that's new As I sit here in the stillness, Lord, my heart cries out for You, for You Chorus: Bridge: I get so caught up in this life (all that glitters is not gold) I need You, Lord Help me walk by faith not sight (Let Your grace and mercy flow) I need You, Lord (draw me deeper) I need You, Lord (draw me deeper) Draw me deeper, Lord
