More Lyrics - Poor Old Lu

As one of the last songs written for Mindsize, we chose to put it as the first song that many people would ever hear of us. It also became our very first "official" single, being packaged with Mortal's "Rift" on a 7" single. In retrospect, More was not a great first single, nor a great way to start an album. It simply did not have the 'punch' that we would've liked. 

This song is about abundant life in Christ. It is also about missing the wonderful opportunities that are available to us in the Lord. As we live for ourselves, we miss out on so much. As we live for the Lord, we see how much He desires to bless us! 

Oblivious to some things more in store 

And when I wept I knew not what 

or when or why what for 

Is this earth so great though it will not last 

Through crashing walls what stands is 

one good thing one way one chance 

And glimmer shining up and through the floor 

Will run and hide and fade 

just like He said it would before 

And now my head is really spinning fast 

I lived it all for me 

and now it simply moved right past 

Seeing, revealing 

More is here today 

Distance, no wisdom 

I pushed true life away 

"Wonderful" have I missed and I ignore 

And "terrible" was my word 

and was my life I became poor 

Self was in my hands and then it passed 

I'm left with picture perfect thought 

of what we think we have 

Imagine when I found I'm no savior 

Imagine when I knew and saw 

and fell before the Lord 

Myself none of any good my world crashed 

I lived it all for me 

and so it simply moved right past.
