not enough
not enough of You
Alright!
I can't get enough

You're too good to me Lord, it's true
Oh Lord I love You

The more I get to know You Lord
The more I come to know
I can't get enough
can't get enough of You
You're too good to me Lord, it's true
I can't get enough of You
It's not enough for me to feel You
It's not enough for me to pray
It's not enough to read your stories
Lord, if I'm never moved to change
It's not enough to know about You
But You're enough for me to see
That there is nothing I want more
Than all of You
So I give You all of me!
'Cause You don't get enough
You don't get enough

The more I get to know You Lord
The more I let go
'Cause You don't get enough
You don't get enough
You don't get enough of me
I can be all You want me to be
when You don't get enough of me
It's not enough for me to feel You
It's not enough for me to pray
It's not enough to read your stories
Lord, if I'm never moved to change
It's not enough to know about You

The chorus of Denver and the Mile High Orchestra's song "Can't Get Enough" talks about the singer’s insatiable desire for a closer relationship with God. He sings, "I can’t get enough, not enough, not enough of You. You’re too good to me, Lord, it’s true. I can’t get enough of You." The singer acknowledges that feeling God isn't enough. It's not enough to feel God's love or to read stories about Him if there isn't a change in our lives. The more the singer gets to know God, the more he wants to surrender to Him completely. He declares, "The more I get to know You, Lord, the more I let go."
The song is a reminder that the pursuit of God is unending. The more we think we have God figured out, the more we understand that there is always more to know about Him. It's not enough to simply know about Him; our knowledge of God must translate to a changed heart and a transformed life.
