More Of You

Thought I could give her everything
The fairytale, the rainbow's end
Oh, but happiness is not for sale
The rules of God, I could not bend
Foolish and young, you set your eyes
On the American dream
Then when you faint from the run
You realize the answer is easy to see

And all she really needs from me
Is more of You
That's all she really needs from me
I know it is, I know it's true, yeah
More understanding, more tenderness
A love that goes beyond my humanness
That's all she really needs from me
Is more of You, more of You

Now today, I'm not the same
As the man I used to be, no
But the very best that can be said
Jesus is alive and well in me
Oh, but every now and then
The pressure builds, anxiety grows, no
Old habits reappear, frustration's real
But inside I know, I know

That all she really needs from me
Is more of You
That's all she really needs from me
I know it is, I know it's true, I do
More understanding, more tenderness
A love that goes beyond my humanness
That's all she really needs from me
Is more of You, more of You

So this will be my prayer today
The same tomorrow, forever
That I will keep Your love displayed, oh
For all around to see
That's all she really needs from me, yeah

More understanding, more tenderness
A love that goes beyond my humanness
That's all, that's all she needs from me
Is a little more of You
That's all, that's all she needs
More of You, more, more, more
A little more of You
