The Power of Your Name - Lincoln Brewster

So it’s 1 AM and I just heard this song for the first time on the way home tonight after spending time with a friend in need. I instantly fell in love with it.

The lyrics are so powerful. Verse 3, verse 4, and the chorus in particular are the cry of my heart…

"Surely life wasn't made to regret

And the lost were not made to forget

Surely faith without action is dead
Let Your Kingdom come
Lord break this heart"

"Jesus Your name
Is a shelter for the hurting
and Your name
Is a refuge for the weak

Only Your name

Can redeem the undeserving
Jesus Your name
Holds everything I need"

"And I will live
To carry Your compassion
To love a world that's broken
To be Your hands and feet
And I will give
With the life that I've been given
And go beyond religion
To see the world be changed

By the power of Your name

The power of Your name..."

I would like to go on about what they mean to me, beyond the bluntly obvious, but it’s late and I’m struggling to find the words at the moment. So I will just leave it at this and believe He will be able to use it to touch your heart in some special way like He has used it to touch mine.

Father, thank you for forgiveness, grace, mercy, and your perfect timing. You have our hearts. We love you!
