Beautiful Name

Beautiful Name

I’ve mentioned before that often a blog starts with a song.  There has been a song I keep listening to a lot lately.  Before we get too far into this. My question is this are you proclaiming God’s truth and his beautiful Name every chance you get.  I want to show you the passion of the women of the group ZoeGirl and then part of Psalm 71.  I keep finding so much amazing stuff in this one Psalm.  

Beautiful Name by Zoegirl

“Your heart I seek to find
With Your hands You fashioned mine
Let me be used by You
To carry out the truth

To the ends of the earth
'Til everyone's heard
My mended heart will share Your words
I will tell the world that You are God

I will run, I will fly
I will live to be a sacrifice
Through it all I'll rise above
Unafraid I will face what comes

I will run, I will fly
And for my faith I'll live and die
I'll be strong, I will press on
For the sake of Your beautiful name
Your beautiful name

Should all life cease to grow
Should chaos take control
The only hope we know is
You will save us

It's worth the cost
To take up my cross
As You take back what's been lost
Until all who don't know You are God

I will run, I will fly
I will live to be a sacrifice
Through it all I'll rise above
Unafraid I will face what comes

I will run, I will fly
And for my faith I'll live and die
I'll be strong, I will press on
For the sake of Your beautiful name
Your beautiful name, Your beautiful name

I'm not a captive anymore
I'm gonna soar to a new place
Take on a new pace
I know what my life is for

I will run, I will fly
I will live to be a sacrifice
Through it all I'll rise above
Unafraid I will face what comes

I will run, I will fly
And for my faith I'll live and die
I'll be strong, I will press on
For the sake of Your beautiful name
Your beautiful name, Your beautiful name

I will run, I will fly
I'll be strong, I will press on
For the sake of Your beautiful name
(Your beautiful name)
Your beautiful name”

Psalm 71:7-24

”    7I have become a marvel to many,
            For You are my strong refuge.

      8My mouth is filled with Your praise
            And with Your glory all day long.

      9Do not cast me off in the time of old age;
            Do not forsake me when my strength fails.

      10For my enemies have spoken against me;
            And those who watch for my life have consulted together,

      11Saying, “God has forsaken him;
            Pursue and seize him, for there is no one to deliver.”

      12O God, do not be far from me;
            O my God, hasten to my help!

      13Let those who are adversaries of my soul be ashamed and consumed;
            Let them be covered with reproach and dishonor, who seek to injure me.

      14But as for me, I will hope continually,
            And will praise You yet more and more.

      15My mouth shall tell of Your righteousness
            And of Your salvation all day long;
            For I do not know the sum of them.

      16I will come with the mighty deeds of the Lord GOD;
            I will make mention of Your righteousness, Yours alone.

      17O God, You have taught me from my youth,
            And I still declare Your wondrous deeds.

      18And even when I am old and gray, O God, do not forsake me,
            Until I declare Your strength to this generation,
            Your power to all who are to come.

      19For Your righteousness, O God, reaches to the heavens,
            You who have done great things;
            O God, who is like You?

      20You who have shown me many troubles and distresses
            Will revive me again,
            And will bring me up again from the depths of the earth.

      21May You increase my greatness
            And turn to comfort me.

      22I will also praise You with a harp,
            Even Your truth, O my God;
            To You I will sing praises with the lyre,
            O Holy One of Israel.

      23My lips will shout for joy when I sing praises to You;
            And my soul, which You have redeemed.

      24My tongue also will utter Your righteousness all day long;
            For they are ashamed, for they are humiliated who seek my hurt.”
