I've been thinking lately about You
When it hit me from nowhere, out of the gray
Everything's been coming together
Now that I've moved beyond myself
And wrapped my head around something else
It's not about me, it's gotta be about You
(Everyday and...)
All I wanna see is who You're turning me into
(In every way and...)
I will not forget that You said You'd always lead me through
To who I wanna be, making every part of me about You
I’ve been spending so much time disconnected
I was searching for perfection inside myself
But I finally turned away from my reflection
I saw Your world outside my door
And everything that I'd been looking for
So I'll lay down my pride 'cause You laid down Your life
And I'm giving up all that's holding me back
And clinging to You
And You'll lead me through
'Cause You always do

Behind the Song:"As a group, we've always made a point to talk about very specific issues that people go through in life. The message of this song is so important because you can apply this truth to anything in life. When you think about low self-esteem, dating issues, temptations and peer pressure, all of those issues come in to better perspective when we take our eyes off of ourselves, and make everything about Jesus.
When I finally turned away from my reflection I saw your world outside my door and everything that I've been looking for
In our own wisdom and strength, we will only find heartache and failure. In our own lives, we have found that when we are focused on ourselves and what we think will make us happy, we always are left wanting. When we make everything about the purposes and business of the kingdom of God, we feel a lot better about ourselves and are able to love others beyond what we are capable of on our own." - Alisa (
