Jennifer Knapp

Turn Your eyes from on this way
I have proved to live a dastardly day
I hid my face from the saints and the angels
Who sing of Your glory
What You had in mind
My weakness shines
Show me grace

Chorus:
A little more than I can give
A little more than I deserve
Unearth this holiness I can't earn
It's a little more than I can give
A little more than I deserve

For all the sin that lives in me
It took a nail to set me free still,
What I do I don't want to do and so goes the story
What You had in mind
What we seek we'll find
Shine, show me grace

A little more than I can give
A little more than I deserve
Unearth this holiness I can't earn
It's a little more than I can give
A little more than I deserve

With all this motivation I still find a hesitation
Deep in my soul
Despite all my demanding I still find You understanding
Show me grace
Show me grace I know is

A little more than I can give
A little more than I deserve
Unearth this holiness I can't earn
It's a little more than I can give
A little more than I deserve


I was driving yesterday to pick up my husband from work (we currently only have one car and it usually just makes more sense for me to take it rather than him) and NOTHING good was on the radio. I can't stand this new idea of music they have playing on the radio stations....rap is what they call it. It just seems to be infiltrating our every station and making my daily rides to Fort Worth not so enjoyable. So, I have resulted in playing my cds over and over again. Jennifer Knapp's cd (which I bought about 5 or more years ago) was the cd of choice yesterday. I can't remember a song that makes me totally and utterly humbled yet at the same time showing me how wonderfully loved we are at the same time. It brings me to tears every time I listen to it and I wanted to share it. I love the way she writes and brings such meaning to her songs. This one is titled A Little More and it is the reason I bought her CD in the first place.

Don't you just love those songs that you can listen to over and over and over and have the repeat on all day and never tire of hearing it again? I love those songs and look forward to the next one that climbs into my head and touches my heart. I don't think I could survive without music.
