John Allan - Born To Praise (CCM)

John Allan has released a Christian Contemporary Music (CCM) track called A Highway Of Praise Is Filling The Room And Soaring To Heaven.
John shares: "In the winter of 2020, I found myself within a much-needed time of solitude. During these days I focused on God and spent countless hours writing. Through these writing sessions, the themes of “Born To Praise” came to life. There is something inside of my soul that I can’t shake. I am deeply fascinated with God and honored to live my life serving the one who gives me breath. “Born To Praise” came out of the idea that every second of my time here on Earth is praise to God. My goals are to glorify God through my life and to know him in a personal way. I was born to praise and so were you."

Lyrics:
You and i for a lifetime 
i am Yours 
drawn by loving kindness 
You make me whole 
i was born to praise You, God 
like thunder on a skyline, roaring loudly 
Your fingerprints are on my heart 
my life laid down to give You glory 
You and i, for all my days
i am Yours
when i breathe my last, i’ll breathe my first 
walking on Your shores 
i was born to praise You God
like thunder on a skyline, roaring loudly 
Your fingerprints are on my heart 
my life laid down to give You glory

"Not Far From Us" by Divine Vibes: Stop Searching. Start Reaching.

The search can end right now. The Apostle Paul stood in Athens surrounded by altars and idols — a city full of people reaching toward something they couldn’t name. Among all their shrines, Paul spotted one inscription: “To an unknown God.” That moment became the opening of one of the most powerful declarations in Scripture. The people were already searching. They just didn’t know who they were searching for. “Not Far From Us” is a collaboration between Divine Vibes and House of Purpose. The track takes that same scene and sets it to Afro House and cinematic electronic music. Created directly from Acts 17, the lyrics move like Paul’s speech itself — from observation to revelation. “I found an altar to an unknown God // This God whom you worship without knowing // This is the one I’m telling you about.” Divine Vibes doesn’t just retell the story… he pulls you right into it. What Paul told the Athenians next also applies to each of us today: “Yet he is actually not far from each one of ...

"Chasing Nothing" by Louis Loock: When Grace Starts Chasing You

Success fades. Approval fades. What actually lasts? Picture yourself walking home. A normal walk home, nothing dramatic. Just sidewalks, tomorrow’s to-do list, and thinking about what you own and the career/life you have. That’s where “Chasing Nothing” by Louis Loock starts. He continues to reflect: “Emptiness surrounds me, for no reason that I see, // People walkin’ past, time goes by so fast.”   It’s fascinating to experience how everyday moments like these trigger deeper reflections. For Louis, these reflections led to a change, not because he found more stuff or more approval, but because he found less of himself and more of God. “Then You came into my life, You opened up my eyes,” he writes. “I was chasing nothing, I was running mad.” That choice of words matters. He wasn’t chasing something that turned out disappointing — he was chasing something that turned out to be empty. An illusion. A finish line that keeps moving further away. Does this sound familiar?  Scripture...

"Time in Your Presence" by Austin J. Smith: Why Wasting Time With God Is Never a Waste

Could “wasting time” be the greatest worship? Austin J. Smith wrote “Time in Your Presence” around a simple but countercultural idea: “love doesn’t calculate” . We live in a world that is obsessed with output — checklists, side-hustles, proving what we are worth through who we're seen with and what we accomplish. So what happens when you bring that same mindset into your relationship with God? Austin sums up the answer in a single, defiant line: “I’ll waste my time in Your presence.” Not because sitting with God earns us anything. “Earning” isn’t required by God.  The lyrics elaborate on that tension. “The world just might think I’m foolish,” Austin sings, “to waste my whole life on you.” ‘Foolish’ by whose measure and which definition? Our culture rewards busyness and prestige, but it’s not capable of measuring the benefit of a quiet moment with your Creator. Austin calls God his “morning star” and “golden hour”  — the beautiful moments of the day that don’t need justification...
