We want our desires to line up with God’s purposes for our lives. This song by Jeremy Camp gives voice to the desire for God’s purposes to be expressed in our lives.

The lyrics of My Desire are rich with Biblical themes and meaning. Here are the scripture passages that accompany the song:

“Since you have heard about Jesus and have learned the truth that comes from him, throw off your old sinful nature and your former way of life, which is corrupted by lust and deception. Instead, let the Spirit renew your thoughts and attitudes. Put on your new nature, created to be like God—truly righteous and holy.”

Ephesians 4:21-24

1 Peter 5:6-7

“Whenever the living beings give glory and honor and thanks to the one sitting on the throne (the one who lives forever and ever), the twenty-four elders fall down and worship the one sitting on the throne (the one who lives forever and ever). And they lay their crowns before the throne and say, “You are worthy, O Lord our God, to receive glory and honor and power. For you created all things, and they exist because you created what you pleased.”
