Getting into you

I recently rediscovered this song by Relient K and I forgot how much of an impact it had on me when I first became a christian. As far as I can remember, this was the first "christian" song I ever heard and liked and it so well described my early walk with God, and the simplicity of it. I think that this simplicity is something I should focus on more.

When I made up my mind
And my heart along with that
To live not for myself
But yet for God
Somebody said
'Do you know what you are getting yourself into?'

When I finally ironed out
All of my priorities
And asked God to remove the doubt
That makes me unsure of these
Things I ask myself
I ask myself
'Do you know what you are getting yourself into?'

I'm
getting into You
Because You got to me
In a way words cant describe
I'm getting into You
Because I've got to be
You're essential to survive
I'm going to love You with my life

When He looked at me and said
'I kind of view you as a son'
And for a second our eyes met
And I met that with a question:
'Do you know what You are getting yourself into?'

I'm getting into You
Because You got to me
In a way words can't describe
I'm getting into You
Because I've got to be
You're essential to survive
Im going to love You with my life

I've been a liar and I'll never amount to
The kind of person You deserve to worship You
You say You will not dwell on what I did but rather what I do,
You say

'I love You and that's what you are getting yourself into'

Im getting into You
Because You got to me
In a way words cant describe
Im getting into You
Because I've got to be
You're essential to survive
I'm going to love You with my life



I press on to take hold of that for which Christ Jesus took hold of me.
~Philippians 3:12
