Maria Bencic - The king is coming


Maria Bencic has released a song in the style of ancient Hebrew songs called "The king is coming". The song is about the parable about the ten virgins.  

The lyrics are simple and clear: 

"I take my lamp 
I take my oil 
my feet is bare 
well I dont care, 
when the king is coming, 
I must be there 
I must prepare"

The song has an ancient classical orchestra sound surprisingly combined with a modern gospel pop sound, decorated with majestic parade instruments.  

Inspired by the parable of the 10 virgins, Maria explains the story behind the song: 
”If your beloved who you had not met in many years, who traveled away to a faraway country but promised to one day return to you, suddenly would appear outside your house in the middle of the dark night calling your name, would you get up from your bed with a yawn, shower, dress yourself decently and eat a meal before you would go out to greet him?  
Or... would you jump out of bed like it was on fire with glowing flames of love! Run out with only your nightgown on and with a fast-beating heart that does not even allow you to waste time to put on your shoes."

Bryan & Katie Torwalt has released a Christian Contemporary Music (CCM) track called Miracle In The Works. LYRICS: Some may say it’s hopeless They must have never met my God  Some may say it’s over But it was finished on the cross Some may say it’s broken But the Healer’s in the room  Some may say it’s hopeless But I know    God’s about to move...   There’s a miracle in the works I can feel it There’s revival in the church I believe it   Some may see an ocean But He’s made a highway through Some may see a mountain  But we’ve seen a mountain move Some may see a graveyard But we’ve seen His empty tomb Some may see a battle But I know   Reignite us, reawaken Breath of God, come breathe again Like the dry bones started shaking All that died will live again  Oh the miracle You’re making The beginning not the end Eternity is waiting  To see Your church alive again   You are my miracle Jesus You are my miracle   #BryanandKatieTorw...
