Call Upon the Name

No 17 in AOV NG is from Brisbane locals emmanuelworship so this is one of the few groups providing music to the collection I’ve heard play a few times.  This one is by Roby Curtis with Patrick Keady helping out with the lyrics.

We use Keady’s Fire Mass at Daisy Hill and I have several of their books of music but not “Revolution” that has this song on it.  Apart from the Fire Mass I have trouble finding liturgical music from emmanuelworship as the songs are generally very much praise and worship songs and very good for getting very loud and emotional.

The text is available here where you can also listen to the song.

How beautiful are the feet of those
who bring good news of freedom
How powerful are the hands of those
who bring justice and healing
How wonderful are the lips of those
who speak mercy in Jesus
How beautiful are the hearts of those
who’ve been touched by Your love

Where would I be if I had not heard
You calling out to me?

Every man who calls upon the name of the Lord shall be saved, shall be saved
And every woman who calls on
the name of her God shall give praise,
shall give praise
And every child who calls up-on
the name of the Lord shall be saved,
shall be saved
And all creation that bows
before the Lord our God
shall give praise, shall give praise to You

Jesus, I’m calling out to You (repeat)
