Paul Morton - Chasing After You Lyrics

Chasing After You is a short worship song about pursuing God. The central line, "I'm chasing after you, no matter what I have to do," is paired with a plain statement of need: "I need you more and more." The bridge repeats "more and more" in sets, and the vamp adds a promise to praise the way through just to be closer.

The lyrics echo Psalm 63:8 and Philippians 3:12-14, where pressing on toward God is described, and Psalm 42:1 on the soul's thirst. A direction in the lyrics asks for the vamp to be repeated ten to twelve times, so the song is shaped for extended worship rather than a developed story. The words are brief and direct, and the repeated phrases allow a congregation to sing slowly, build intensity and stay with the thought of nearness to God. The tone is urgent but not anxious, centered on desire and praise as the way to draw near.
