Song #32: “Whom Shall I Fear”(Psalm 27)
**Before I get into Song #32, I ask you to pray about helping to send us to Israel in March of 2020. We will be joining a group to come along side 10 different ministries in Israel with material and spiritual support. Donations can be made by buying my music, or giving at wesmichaelgorospe.com. Thank you in advance.
Lyrics
One thing have I desired of the Lord, one thing will I seek
that I may dwell in the house of the Lord all the days of my life
to behold the beauty of the Lord, to behold the beauty of the Lord
The Lord is my light and my salvation, whom shall I fear?
The Lord is the strength of my life, whom shall I fear…
When You said to me “seek My face”
my heart said to You,”Your face Lord will I seek”
When You said to me “seek My face”
my heart said to You,”Your face Lord will I seek” (repeat all)
To have a “One thing” mindset, a “One thing” heart motivation is to be like Mary of Bethany, of whom Jesus said that her choice to worship was the one thing needed.
The apostle Paul wrote, “one thing I do…reaching forward…I press toward the goal…”
To live in worship, all day long; seeing His glory and majesty everywhere, is what David is singing about here. You can choose to live in this place; beholding His beauty, feeling Him strengthening you, fear melting away as His glorious light shines upon you, as Isaiah 60 points out.
The tenderness of “Your face Lord will I seek” is a place of intimacy that can be our portion if we are willing to embrace Him. He is waiting for us to come, inviting us to enter into this secret place.
I encourage all of you to taste and see for yourself the goodness of the Lord…put on a “One thing” mindset…just go for it, you won’t regret it. Glory is waiting for you.
Psalm 27 has not yet been recorded by me, but you can read all of my previous blogs, and listen to the songs on my website;
