Oh Lord
Jesus Culture Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Your face is all I seek,
And when your eyes are on this child,
Your grace abounds to me.
Oh Lord, you're beautiful,
Your face is all I seek,
And when your eyes are on this child,
Your grace abounds to me.
I want to take your word and shine it all around. First help me just to live it Lord.
And when I'm doing well, help me to never seek a crown.
For my reward is bringing glory to you.
I want to take your word and shine it all around.
But first help me just to live it Lord.
And when I'm doing well, help me to never seek a crown.
For my reward is giving glory to you.
Oh Lord, you're beautiful,
Your face is all I seek,
For when your eyes are on this child,
Your grace abounds to me.
Oh Lord, you're beautiful,
Your face is all I seek,
For when your eyes are on this child,
Your grace abounds to me.
In the song Oh Lord You're Beautiful by Jesus Culture, the singer is expressing their deep desire for God's presence and their intention to reflect God's glory. The lyrics convey a sense of awe and wonder towards God's beauty and the transformative power it has over the singer's life. The singer recognizes that when they seek God's face, they are filled with grace, which in turn helps them to reflect God's light to others.
The chorus repeats the central message of the song - that the singer is solely focused on seeking God's face and is sustained by God's grace. This desire for God's presence is not just a fleeting feeling, but a constant pursuit - something the singer wants in all aspects of their life. They want to take God's word and shine it all around, but they acknowledge that this begins with 'living it' in their own life. Interestingly, the song acknowledges the temptation to seek worldly accolades (such as a crown), and instead chooses to prioritize bringing glory to God as their ultimate reward.
The song's message is a powerful reminder of the importance of cultivating a deep relationship with God and allowing that relationship to transform every aspect of our lives. It reminds us to seek God's face, and to prioritize reflecting God's glory in all that we do.

We miss our dear brother Keith who wrote and sang this praise. Thank you Father for giving us brother Keith . Thank you ILoveJesus227 for this wonderful cover! GOOD JOB!
ALL because of Jesus Christ we are saved unto forevermore. Thank you Lord for your eternally great sacrifice on our behalf we did not deserve. What a blessing! We are saved all because of who Jesus was and is this very day. HE IS LORD GOD AND SAVIOR AND REDEEMER OF OUR SOULS THAT WERE BOUND FOR ETERNAL SEPARATION FROM OUR MAKER EVERMORE! Subscribed.
MARK 16:15! Marching orders from Jesus Christ.
May God richly bless your praise ministry. JESUS COMES! Maranatha 1 Cor.16:22.
"And this is eternal life, that they might know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent." John 17:3; John 3:16-17.
THE GOOD NEWS: JESUS CHRIST IS LORD. HE IS COMING !
"Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man comes to the Father, but by me.."John 14.1-6; Titus 2:11-15.
Blood coming from his body, NAKED, hanging on that cross like Roman torture weapon! What a Lord God and Savior! He had to. HE is God the Son. Only His sinless blood could pay our sins price.1 John 2:1-2. The Savior was born to die for our sins so we could live through Him.
The Birth of Jesus Christ
Isaiah 7: 14: "Therefore the LORD shall give you a sign; behold, a virgin shall conceive, and bear a son, and call His name Immanuel." Hebrew: עִמָּנוּאֵל, "God with us" in human flesh but without sin. The Savior of the world was born to die for our sins! He did so 33 years later. His terrible ordeal; body mutilated; blood poured out, finally died (John 19:30; Luke 23:46 ) and was placed in a tomb and rose from the dead the 3rd day ! "HE IS RISEN" Matthew 28: 6.
Isaiah 53:" 5 But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities (SINS): the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed. 6 All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned every one to his own way; and the Lord hath laid on him the iniquity of us all." - IT IS FOUNDED UPON GOD'S LOVE FOR MAN AND WOMAN HE CREATED
John 3:16 "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believes in him should not perish, but have everlasting life."
"For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God." Romans 3: 23
" For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord." Romans 6:23
"1 Corinthians 15: 3 "For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; 4 And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:"
THE PAYMENT BY HIS BLOOD FOR ALL SINS EVER!
Romans 5:8 " But God demonstrates his love for us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us. 9 Much more then, now justified by his blood, we will be saved from wrath through him."
“For he (God) hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him.” 2 Corinthians 5:21.
" In whom we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of his grace;." Ephesians 1:7; 1 Peter 1:18-19.
Matthew 26: 28 "For this is my blood of the New Testament, which is shed for many for the remission of sins." (the life is in the blood. He had to pay with His life)
"And according to the Law, one may almost say, all things are cleansed with blood, and without shedding of blood there is no forgiveness." Hebrews 9:22
BY GOD'S GRACE ALONE THROUGH FAITH ALONE IN JESUS CHRIST ARE WE SAVED
Ephesians 2:8 "For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: 9 not of works, lest any man should boast."
Jesus died and paid the penalty for our sins to rescue us from eternal death. He died on our behalf. We believe in Him, trusting His death and shedding of His blood as payment for ALL our sins and His burial and resurrection from the dead the third day! John 20:24-31; 1 Corinthians 15: 3-4 above.
WHOSOEVER BELIEVES SHALL TESTIFY TO THE TRUTH
Romans 10:
9 that if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved. 10 For with the heart one believes unto righteousness, and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.
13 For “whoever calls on the name of the Lord shall be saved.”
TO DIE IS TO REJECT SALVATION IN JESUS CHRIST AND BE SEPARATE FROM GOD FOREVERMORE
Salvation and forgiveness of sins is the blessing of anyone who believes in Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior. We receive the baptism of God the Holy Spirit immediately which seals us in Christ and that is permanent! Ephesians 1:13-14. Those who reject the free gift of salvation, see John 3:16 above, "perish", which means their sins are judged by God the Son and they suffer eternal separation from God and the family of God forever called the "second death". Revelation 21:8.
@ernestronald1898
We all have that one thing that we desire to Do for God but we rush into it without full revelation and instruction from the Instructor. This song has changed my whole perception about going in quick- in to ministry. Teach me Lord to live your word before I can shine it around the World. Amen.
@ceciliaadrio1462
Just do as a servant God will equip you 🛐✝️
@letagoglory4093
Amen, very true
@TristanandIsolt
Don't use this song as a reason to delay going in to ministry. Check out Keith Green's other songs (he wrote this one). Jesus Commands us to Go and Asleep in the light.
@walterforrester7917
Amen brother. I can not help but feeling very humble when I hear this song. I sing it so many times and I always feel so blessed. Keep your faith and live with love and hope. Love- South Africa
@TristanandIsolt
