Elijah Oyelade Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
My soul is thirsty
To see your glory
Cover all the earth
Sweet Holy Spirit
The flood and the fire
Rise up within me
To fulfill the will of God
Jesus, you are my de-si-re
I need you more than e-ver
Lord, come have your way
Lord, my heart is longing
My soul is thirsty
To see your glory
Cover all the earth
Sweet Holy Spirit
The flood and the fire
Rise up within me
To fulfill the will of God
Jesus, you are my de-si-re
I need you more than e-ver
Lord, come have your way
Jesus, you are my desire
I need you more than ever
Lord, come have your way
I need you more than ever
Lord, come have your way
I need you more than ever
Lord, come have your way
I need you more
I need you more
I need you more
I need you more than ever
Lord, come have your way
I need you more than ever
Lord, come have your way
The lyrics to Elijah Oyelade's "My Desire" are a heartfelt expression of the singer's longing for God's presence and divine intervention. The song opens with a confession of the singer's thirst and hunger for God's glory to cover the earth, as he calls upon the Holy Spirit to rise within him to fulfill the will of God. He expresses his longing for Jesus as his ultimate desire, admitting that he needs Him more than anything or anyone.
The repetition of "I need you more than ever, Lord, come have your way" acts as a plea for God to intervene in the singer's life and guide him in the right direction. It is a surrendering of oneself to God's will, acknowledging that God knows best and the singer's desire is for Him to take control of his life.
The song is a reminder of the pursuit of God and the importance of having a personal relationship with Him. It speaks to the human experience of longing and searching for something that can only be found in God. The lyrics are beautifully written and provide words of comfort and hope to anyone who needs to be reminded of God's love and presence.
