It also describes a place of Spiritual sensitivity to what God is doing in our lives, what He’s saying and what He is about to do.įurther the song lyrics speaks of us telling God to come and tear down the boxes that we have tried to put Him in often times we have tried to place limits on God based on our own personal or societal experiences, culture, doctrine, principles, orientation etc. Standing knee deep implies that we are not fully immersed yet but we know that we have grown to a level that we were not in before.

It speaks of having new experiences in God. He started from a place on ankle-deep till he got to knee-deep and still there was more depths to reach. This reminds me of the place in Ezekiel 47:1-4 where God led Ezekiel to come into the water flowing from below the threshold of the temple until he stood in a place where He was knee-deep. I feel You coming and I hear Your voice on the wind” The next verse or bridge says: ” I’m standing knee deep but I’m out where I’ve never been The lyrics continued stating of a thirst for more and how God already knows this but He should come and do whatever He wants to do when we desire God we know He sees our heart and He’s aware of what’s going on in there but we should still present it to Him deliberately and ask Him to come and fill us afresh and do in us what only Him can do. We will not thirst again doesn’t mean that we will not desire more of Him but that we will not thirst for things that have no capacity to satisfy… We will long for him alone to drink of Him, he takes away every emptiness and satisfies us with himself (Revelations 22:17) and pour out His Holy Spirit on us so that out of our bellies will flow springs of living water (John 7:37-39). But we don’t stop longing for more of God.

The lyrics started by declaring how we have come to a place in God where we are full but have not satisfied our longing to have more what this means is that although when we have Christ and some tangible experience we are filled (John 4:10-15). It is important that we mean the words that we say to God and this is achievable if we truly understand the depth of those words. When it comes to the songs that we sing to God, there is a huge difference that understanding makes in our spirit and in the way we worship. However this summer (2018) I felt the Holy Spirit revealing to me the meaning of this song.
