Christian singer-songwriter Yvonne Hartman explores the transforming power of faith in her song “My Want To.” Released in October 2025, the song reflects on how a growing relationship with Jesus can change a person’s desires, priorities, and understanding of life’s purpose.
Inspired by a sermon from her pastor, Hartman developed the song around the idea that when Jesus becomes the center of someone’s life, their deepest desires can begin to align with His purpose. The song focuses on surrender, spiritual growth, and the changes God brings to the human heart.
One of its most meaningful moments comes in the second verse, where Hartman reflects on moving away from seeking recognition toward finding joy in serving Jesus. This personal message highlights the difference between simply changing outward behavior and experiencing genuine transformation from within.
Drawing inspiration from Philippians 2:13, “My Want To” reminds listeners that spiritual growth is not achieved through personal effort alone but through God’s work in their lives.
Through her music, Hartman hopes to encourage believers and anyone seeking a deeper connection with God. With its relatable message of faith and renewed purpose, “My Want To” invites listeners to consider how their desires can reflect a life devoted to serving Jesus Christ.
