Going Through the Motions

"The Motions" by Matthew West

"This might hurt, it's not safe/

But I know that I've gotta make a change/

I don't care if I break/

At least I'll be feeling something'/

Cause just okay is not enough/

Help me fight through the nothingness of life/

I don't wanna go through the motions/

I don't wanna go one more day/

without Your all consuming passion inside of me/

I don't wanna spend my whole life asking/

"What if I had given everything/

instead of going through the motions?"/

No regrets, not this time/

I'm gonna let my heart defeat my mind/

Let Your love make me whole/

I think I'm finally feeling something/

'Cause just okay is not enough/

Help me fight through the nothingness of this life/

'Cause I don't wanna go through the motions/

I don't wanna go one more day/

without Your all consuming passion inside of me/

I don't wanna spend my whole life asking/

"What if I had given everything/

instead of going through the motions?"/

take me all the way (take me all the way)/

take me all the way ('cause I don't wanna go through the motions)/

take me all the way (I know I'm finally feeling something real)/

take me all the way/

I don't wanna go through the motions/

I don't wanna go one more day/

without Your all consuming passion inside of me/

I don't wanna spend my whole life asking/

"What if I had given everything/

instead of going through the motions?"/

I don't wanna go through the motions/

I don't wanna go one more day/

without Your all consuming passion inside of me/

I don't wanna spend my whole life asking/

"What if I had given everything/

instead of going through the motions?"/

take me all the way (take me all the way)/

take me all the way (I don't wanna go, I don't wanna go)/

take me all the way (through the motions)/

take me all the way/

I don't wanna go through the motions."

I heard this song tonight while I was driving home from work...It's so powerful, and really inspires me to take my relationship with Jesus to the next level.
