Freedom Heart - Release (CCM)


Freedom Heart has released a Christian Contemporary Music (CCM) track called Release.

SONG BACKGROUND

More recently, we all go through so much attack on our identities because the enemy wants to steal, kill, and destroy who we are. “Made Perfect” is a song that depicts God’s view of us and that we are made perfect in His image. We don’t have to be anything else or anyone else. God sees us as perfect and if we just have that truth in us, we can have more freedom in our lives!

Lyrics:

Verse 1:

My mind is a battlefield

Thoughts waging war

Heart condemning

Threats possessing

there’s nothing I can do

To run away from despair

Guilt overwhelming

Shame accusing 



Pre Chorus:

Pulling me down,  Further and further

I’m sinking down, Further and further

I can’t breathe, the walls closing in

It’s Suffocating, the walls closing in



Chorus:

When I bow down, You lift me up

As I surrender, all doubt melts away

The hold that’s been gripping me

is no more as I release



Verse 2:

Give myself permission

To end the oppression 

Hope arising 

Faith advancing 

I open up my hands

Letting go of everything 

Deliverance now

Redemption here



Pre Chorus 2:

I’m getting close,  closer and closer

Receiving freedom, Closer and closer

The past is done, there’s no more judgement

I can finally breathe, there’s no more judgement 



Bridge:

Have it all, have it all

In the dark & ugly spaces

Take it all, take it all and

Make me whole

Have it all, have it all

In the dark & ugly spaces

Take it all, take it all and

Make me whole

"King, Lamb, Lion" by Ben Jero & Graham Guy: When the World Runs Dry

What happens when the world just isn’t enough?  In early 2025, Graham Guy was reading Revelation chapter 4. The picture of heaven gathered around the throne — declaring God holy and worthy of praise — planted the seed for this song. Three words surfaced from that moment: “King, Lamb, Lion.” Graham sent them to Ben Jero, and across a string of FaceTime calls between South Carolina and California, the song “King, Lamb, Lion” took shape.  The opening verse doesn’t pretend. “I’ve tried this world, but it won’t fill me,” the lyric admits, before landing at surrender: “My life laid down, at your feet.” That’s honest territory. Most of us have chased something we thought would satisfy, only to find ourselves empty-handed. The song changes our focus to lasting results. “The old is gone, the new has come,” it declares, repeating a promise found in 2 Corinthians 5:17: “If anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old has passed away; behold, the new has come.” Notice what that ...

"Paper Lantern Heart" by MK Green: When God Lights a Fire You Can't Contain

What happens when God lights a fire in you?  Some fires refuse to stay hidden. MK Green wrote “Paper Lantern Heart” around that exact truth, inspired by Jeremiah 20:9, where the prophet admits that he tried to stop preaching but simply couldn’t. The Word burned inside him “like a fire shut up in my bones.” Green’s lyrics echo that same struggle: “Behind the bones inside my chest there burns a paper heart.” Cold turns to burning. Silence turns to song. “I was cold as stone until You lit a spark,” the chorus declares, and something about that image sticks with you long after the music fades.  Here’s the question worth pondering: What do you do when God ignites something in you that won’t stay quiet?  Jeremiah tried holding it in, and that exhausted him. “There is in my heart as it were a burning fire shut up in my bones, and I am weary with holding it in, and I cannot” (Jeremiah 20:9). That weariness sounds familiar, doesn’t it? Maybe you’ve felt the nudge to speak up, ...

"Stand By Me" by Daniel Aranda: Finding Steadiness in Life's Storms

Who’s standing with you in the storm? “Stand By Me” by Daniel Aranda is an amazing rendition of a hymn written by Charles Albert Tindley in 1905. Tindley was the son of a former slave, a man who knew what it meant to need help that wasn’t guaranteed. He didn’t write from comfort. He wrote from the middle of a fight, and that’s exactly why the song is still so relevant and cherished by many today. Daniel Aranda’s recording brings gospel legends Terry Blackwood and Charlie McCoy into that same lineage, carrying Tindley’s plea forward into a new generation.  The lyrics move through life’s troubles, one verse at a time. “When the storms of life are raging, stand by me”  — that’s not poetic exaggeration. Tindley’s first verse is about a ship tossed on open water, powerless against the waves. Then verses about failing strength, friends who misunderstand your best efforts, persecution, and the song ends with a verse about old age creeping toward “chilly Jordan.” Each of the verses names ...
