Burdened To Have Beautiful Feet

We recently started working with our church's youth ministry and we've come across lots of new music in styles that we don't typically listen to, but it's been neat to find out how teens today are worshiping God in their own way.

This is a song that I am really loving right now. I know that it may not be "your style" but please listen, or at least just read the lyrics. There is such truth in these words. My heart has been burdened since returning from Brazil, and I pray that God would give me the courage to boldly proclaim His name no matter where I am or who He puts in my path.

[Verse 1]
Carlos was born in killa cali was walking down an alley
and caught a bullet in his head that left him bleeding badly.
He lost everything at that moment except his life,
he lost his hearing lost his movement and even lost his sight.
He laid there in a coma but man nobody cared
the Gospel preached in his neighborhood? Nobody dared.
But los got up out the coma and was able to hear
a missionary shared the gospel to his open ears.
He got saved got trained got discipled
back to hood you could find em preaching the Bible.
He led a homie to Christ from his same hood
part of Church plant come on now ain't His name good?
This is blessing I'm stressing but this is not the norm
we need leaders and believers to help carry it on.
But who would minister in a sinister part of town?
I pray if Jesus is calling you that you would be found.

Go, go, go (run with those beautiful feet)
Go, go, go
You hold the truth that saves so run and shout it to the world
They can't believe in something they ain't never heard
Go, go, go and run with those beautiful feet

[Verse 2]
Eric used to go to Bible study as a kid
he got older and started doing what the hood did.
A rival gang caught him slippin' tried to take his life
but the jammed up so them beat him nice.
He woke up in the hospital singing Bible songs
praise God he had a place to learn the Bible from.
But then he gets saved and wanna preach Christ
they make him change his whole culture and way of life.
He gotta get him a bachelors wear a suit and tie
go to seminary by then all of his boys will die.
Jesus came to invade culture outta Nazareth
and used a couple fisherman who people saw as hazardous.
The feet are beautiful if only they'd go
if ain't nobody in the hood preaching how will they know?
Eric is better used taught trues in his context
somebody please plant a church in his projects.

Go, go, go (run with those beautiful feet)
Go, go, go
You hold the truth that saves so run and shout it to the world
They can't believe in something they ain't never heard
Go, go, go and run with those beautiful feet

[Verse 3]
In Luke 4:16 on down to 21
Jesus says He's Messiah says He's the chosen one.
But more than that He quotes Isaiah
that shows our Savior targets oppressed captive blind and the broken I'm saying.
Had a heart for the poor had a heart for the low
and 1st John 2:6 is way we should go.
In Deuteronomy even tho they under the law
the tithes every third year the poor got em all.
I ain't sayin' you wrong if you live in burbs
I'm sayin' turn your attention to the hood cause we hurting.
Man if you ain't burdened please pick up your word and
tho this world is going down while we here we can serve Him.
We bring this to the streets because we knew the streets
I pray that more would be burdened to have beautiful feet.
You never knew the streets but truth is what you preach
I pray to God you'd be burdened to have beautiful feet.

Go, go, go (run with those beautiful feet)
Go, go, go
You hold the truth that saves so run and shout it to the world
They can't believe in something they ain't never heard
Go, go, go and run with those beautiful feet

Isaiah 52:7
