Brian And Jenn Johnson - More Of You Less Of Me Lyrics

"More of You Less of Me" opens by naming divine presence as incomparable, repeating the phrase there is nothing like three times before each named quality, presence, passion, glory. That triple repetition builds toward the song's central request, stated plainly as its own refrain, more of you, less of me.

Its chorus shifts from description to personal confession, naming satisfaction found in God alone and asking for a single touch to remake the heart entirely. That request for inner renewal, make it new, ties the song's longing for divine increase directly to personal transformation rather than only external experience.

Rooted in contemporary worship's intimate, repetitive chorus tradition, the song functions as a brief, sustained prayer of decreasing self in favor of increasing awareness of God, its closing repetition of must have more of you leaving the song's central request as its final, unresolved, ongoing desire.
