Every 6 months, Melinda and I hold an event in our home called the Next Generation Creative Institute. The purpose of NGCI is to instill in others a vision for creativity and ministry and healing regardless of the individuals particular talents or gifts. It is my practice to meditate on the event in the days prior to people coming into our home. I ask the Lord for songs of deliverance and songs to help those attending to cry out to God with their needs and in worship. This song came as a result of that time of meditation for the 14 people attending this NGCI. It is the cry of my own heart as well. Use this song to seek the deeper places of Who God is.

More than that, I count all things to be loss in view of the surpassing value of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord, for whom I have suffered the loss of all things, and count them but rubbish so that I may gain Christ, and may be found in Him, not having a righteousness of my own derived from the Law, but that which is through faith in Christ, the righteousness which comes from God on the basis of faith, that I may know Him and the power of His resurrection and the fellowship of His sufferings, being conformed to His death; in order that I may attain to the resurrection from the dead.
Philippians 3:8-11 NASB

I need to know You 
Like a baby needs to know a mother’s touch
I need to know You that much
I need to know You
Like a prisoner longs for one to come and save
I need to know You that way

Chorus
I want to know the deeper love 
That comes from being face to face
I want to know a deeper level 
Of the power of Your grace
I want to know You with 
The passion that sent You to take my place
I want to know You
I want to know You that way

Verse
I want to know You
Like a dying man who longs for air to breathe
I want to know You that deep
I need to know You
Like a bird that dares to spread his wings and fly
I need to know You that high
