From the recording I Need To See Jesus
This song is personal.
It comes from where I’m at in life right now—single, mature, secure in who I am, and grounded in my faith. I’ve raised three daughters on my own. I’ve built a life through discipline, work, and surrender to God. That changes how I see people and how I’m seen.
I’m approached more than people might expect, and often it’s through surface-level attraction—sexualized attention, suggestive energy, or what’s become normal on social media. I’m not angry about it, but I am discerning. I’ve learned the difference between being noticed and being known.
I Need To See Jesus is about that line.
I’m not looking for perfection or appearances. I’m looking for depth. I want conversation, faith, curiosity, and shared values. I want a woman who is conservative in how she carries herself but open in her mind and spirit. Someone who puts Christ first—not just in words or posts, but in demeanor, presence, and heart.
When I meet someone in person, I don’t want the first thing I notice to be what they’re showing off. I want to feel peace. I want to hear faith. I want to see Jesus reflected in their spirit before anything else.
God first.
Us and our families in the middle.
Everything else after.
This song is simply me saying that out loud.
Lyrics
Low light, heavy air, the night breathing slow
Eyes talk loud but the spirit don’t show
Perfume prayers, skin on display
I’m listening for truth in what you say
I’ve walked storms, I’ve stood alone
Raised three queens, built a home
I don’t flinch when the world gets loud
I bow my head, that’s where I’m proud
They come close flashing fire and skin
Selling mystery, calling it sin
Social feeds screaming, “Look at me”
But I’m searching deeper than what I see
I’ve been tested by the shine of flesh
Learned real gold don’t need to be pressed
If the first thing you bring is desire and tease
Then you’re talking flesh, not peace
I don’t need a body trying to pull me apart
I need a woman who guards her heart
Talk to me faith, talk to me truth
Tell me what God is doing in you
I need to see Jesus in your eyes
In the way you walk, in the way you rise
When the lights go out and the crowd disappears
What’s standing strong when it’s just us here
I don’t need filters, poses, or reasons
I don’t need lust dressed up as freedom
Before I see curves, before I feel seasons
I need to see Jesus
I make my living, I carry my name
I don’t chase clout, I don’t play games
I’ve seen hunger, I’ve paid my dues
I don’t bend my spine for shallow views
Conservative skin but a mind on fire
Spirit-led depth, disciplined desire
Talk dreams, purpose, talk calling too
If He ain’t first, I’m not chasing you
He’s the alpha, He’s the end
He’s the reason I won’t pretend
Us in the middle, families strong
That’s the rhythm, that’s the song
If I meet you face to face
And the first thing I feel ain’t grace
If your spirit don’t speak His name
Then we’re not walking the same lane
I need to see Jesus in your eyes
In how you love, in how you fight
When temptation knocks and culture leans
Who do you follow, what do you mean
I don’t need a moment, I don’t need reasons
I don’t need bodies offered like seasons
Before desire, before the pleasing
I need to see Jesus
So if you come walking humble and true
With fire for Him shining through
No noise, no games, no excess thesis
Then I’ll know
I see Jesus
