JJ Heller - You Want More For Me Lyrics






I've been thinking about the way my life turned out
How nothing's really gone the way I planned
How each blind curve
Each twist and turn brought me where I am now
And looking back I wouldn't trade them in

I had an image of the life in front of me
And how I was gonna build it on my own
But if I never lost the picture in my mind of who I'd be
I'd never get to see who I'd become

The world is full of extraordinary things
Somehow I never imagined a holiday at sea
I've been settling for mud pies and microscopic dreams
You want more for me

There's a freedom knowing I can't mess it up
And how every choice can somehow can be redeemed
So I pray for wisdom knowing with some faith I'll learn to see
There is no path you will not walk with me

The world is full of extraordinary things
Somehow I never imagined a holiday at sea
I've been settling for mud pies and microscopic dreams
You want more for me

What I hope for is far too weak
A single note in a symphony
I am far too easily pleased
You want more for me
You want more for me
You want more...
Oh, the world is full of extraordinary things
Somehow I never imagined a holiday at sea
I've been settling for mud pies and microscopic dreams
You want more for me
You want more for me
You want more for me

    I just bought this on iTunes. It's so good, and just what I needed to hear right now.

  8. V.... R....

    Just when I think you can’t possibly top a message from a wonderfully crafted song, you do it again. Thank you. It is comforting to know that He holds it all and He is watching with giddy anticipation at what He has in store for me perhaps just around the corner. “You are good, and what you do is good.” - Psalm 119:68

  9. I.... C....

    It’s a beautiful song JJ. ❤️
    It’s a reminder that He knows exactly where we should be.

  10. D.... F....

    You uploaded this at the perfect time for me as I ponder the twisty path my life has taken and how different it is from what I imagined, but constructed so beautifully by God. His fingerprints are seen in the rear view mirror, the reflection of our lives, and who we have become ( and are becoming!)

  11. V.... M....

    The detours are love. Thanks for the reminder.

  12. V.... M....

  17. M.... U....

    What a great song! I'm loving the C.S. Lewis inspiration in this song! 💕

    M.... U....

    Have you read the Andy Gullahorn's post? Wooooow This is totally beautiful!

    M.... U....

    Melisa, Is this inspired by any particular Lewis piece?

    M.... U....

    @Dan MacIntosh in his post there is:
    I’m not brave enough to choose the hard path, so sometimes God chooses it for me. He wants more for me than a small, safe life. C.S. Lewis wrote, “It would seem that Our Lord finds our desires not too strong, but too weak. We are half-hearted creatures, fooling about with drink and sex and ambition when infinite joy is offered us, like an ignorant child who wants to go on making mud pies in a slum because he cannot imagine what is meant by the offer of a holiday at the sea. We are far too easily pleased.”⁣

    M.... U....

    Dan MacIntosh Yes, it’s in “The Weight of Glory”
