Natalie Grant Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Spare me this heartache and change your plan
And I know when he said that you could take my pain away
But even if you don't I pray
Help me want the healer more than the healing
Help me want the savior more than the saving
Help me want the giver more than the giving
You know more than anyone that my flesh is weak
And you know I'd give anything for a remedy
And I'll ask a thousand more times to set me free today
Oh but even if you don't I pray
Help me want the healer more than the healing
Help me want the savior more than the saving
Help me want the giver more than the giving
Oh help me want you Jesus more than anything
Oh when I'm desperate and my heart's overcome
All that I need you've already done, oh
When I'm desperate and my heart's overcome
All that I need you've already done
Oh Jesus help me want you more than anything
Help me want the healer more than the healing
Help me want the savior more than the saving
Help me want the giver more than the giving
Oh help me want you Jesus more than anything
Help me want you Jesus more than anything
The song "Anything" by Natalie Grant is a powerful and emotional plea for God's presence and guidance in times of struggle and uncertainty. The lyrics express a deep desire to prioritize God above all else and seek his will, even in the midst of pain and difficulty.

The chorus then pleads for a heart that is focused on God himself, rather than just the blessings he can provide.

The bridge provides reassurance that God has already achieved everything we need, and all we need to do is seek him. The final repetition of the chorus is a heartfelt declaration of complete surrender and devotion to Jesus.
Overall, the song is a powerful expression of faith and trust in God, even in difficult circumstances. It encourages listeners to prioritize God above all else and seek his will in every situation.

This is true Christianity, wanting our Lord more than anything that He can give us. When He died on the cross He gave to us more than we ever deserved, He reconciled us back to the Father. To want Jesus above and more than anything else is the essence of our faith.
