This song is Fernando's second release as a composer. The first release as a composer was an instrumental EP (YÅ«rei), nylon strings only.


Lyrics: To Be Great

Cheer up, sing
Clap your hands, call all your friends, make a wish
You'll see a bright, new day,
That feels like the Sun woke up for you
To see your face, yeah

*If you find a heavy thought*
*Dance your way to the light one*
*When you feel you're all alone*
*Go be happy with someone*
*Smile, laugh out loud and sing*
*That's the way you'll look awesome*
*Just believe you're more than enough to be great*

Feel the wind
Joyfully around you while you breathe it in
All your dreams
Coming so close to you as you believe
Finally at peace, you'll feel free to have your spare time
Ready to be someone else's sunshine

Enjoy!

Rhett Walker - Man on the Middle Cross (CCM)

Rhett Walker's CCM song, 'Man on the Middle Cross,' is a powerful reflection on the profound impact of God's grace and mercy. The song was inspired by a sermon by Alistair Begg, focusing on the two men crucified alongside Jesus, and the transformative power of Christ's sacrifice. The lyrics vividly describe the scene of three wooden crosses on a hill, with two sinners on either side of Jesus.

The overwhelming theme throughout the song is the recognition of God's grace and mercy, which are not earned or deserved but freely given to all. The br...

"Stepp'n In Big Faith" by Colyn Kristopher: Why Faith Moves Before Proof Arrives

What would change if you trusted God with your very next step? (by Jasper Tan) “Stepp’n in Big Faith by Colyn Kristopher is a bouncy, uplifting, and smooth R&B CCM track that wears Colyn’s faith up his sleeves with a powerful declaration of trusting the Lord and persevering in our Faith. Ably produced by Sherwin Gardner, the song brings in a high-energy musical production with an empowering theme. Anchoring on the central message of the song that talks about unwavering faith, the song encourages us to move forward with “big faith” despite life’s many obstacles and challenges (0:13, 0:56). The song reminds us that we should overcome fear and puts an emphasis on leaving fear behind and instead embrace a life guided by God’s plan for us and find our purpose in life in accordance to God’s will (0:41, 0:43). It cannot be discounted that life often deals us with a bad hand, and we’d just have to roll with the punches. But being resilient amidst adversity helps us get through life’s diff...
