KDMusic - Bright Sky Blues - Acoustic & Dobro (CCM)


KDMusic has released a Christian Contemporary Music (CCM) track called Bright Sky Blues - Acoustic & Dobro.

"Bright Sky Blues is fun summer acoustic song in open tuning or DADGAD on guitar & dobro. There are hints of 'Sesame Street' in the guitar & 'I wish they all could be Californian' on the bass, with some nice brushes on the drums. I ran out of fuel once near the Mourne Mountains Co. Down, and had no mobile or cell coverage, but it was a beautiful day & I knew I'd get a lift eventually. So I sat on the bonnet (hood) of my car under a bright blue sky, surrounded by summer birdsong & buzzing bees and remembered these words from the sermon on the mount, in Matthew 6: "Do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothes? Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they? Can any one of you by worrying add a single hour to your life? “And why do you worry about clothes? See how the flowers of the field grow. They do not labor or spin. Yet I tell you that not even Solomon in all his splendor was dressed like one of these."
To fit in with that idea of the 'worry free beauty' of the bird and flowers, this lyric video has lots of fun animal clips that adults, families and kids will enjoy: People chilling in hammocks, pickup trucks with no gas, sea otters, wallabies, pigs, parrots, ducks, ducklings, camels, peacocks, dogs, orang-utans, love birds, a bald man, meerkats, pangolins, shelties, butterflies, flowers, beautiful girls, happy kids, lemurs, swans, goats, sheep, gibbons, kids with dogs, lion, armadillos, hedgehogs, Irish setters, black bear, penguins, elephants, pups, rhinos, hippopotamus, puppies, puppets, potters, woodworkers. I hope the song makes it onto your summer road trip playlist this year. we've had enough worry and its time for some fun!"

Lyrics:

Blue skies above my head,
I got food in my stomach, clothes on my back and a bed,
Life is generally, problem free,
I’m just takin the ups and the downs as they’re handed to me,
O I can’t change the past so there’s no point in worryin.

Fancy clothes and fancy cars don’t interest me,
Cos we’re all stink sinners anyway ……
an showin off is just cosmetic surgery
Can I pay my mortgage, will I be bald at 40,
Worry won’t help us my friend.
Can’t face the future till we get there,
Worryin is such a sin.

Middle 8
We’re the crown of God’s creation,
But just look at the birds and the flowers,
They’re more free an beautiful than us,
Cos they don’t bear worry’s scars.
Lead

Come to me when weak and heavy laden
The peace I give is nothing like this world gives,
Cos you get, peptic ulcers from rushin, and fussin, an ragin…
Like children playing mom an dad,
We run our lives as if we’re God it’s crazy,
Oh the problem is clear, we take ourselves too seriously,
We never take our neighbour seriously,
We never take our maker seriously.

"Boxes" by John Long: Breaking Free from Religious Boxes

(by Jasper Tan) John Long’s “Boxes,” written with Dustin Smith, is both a reflection and criticism of how we oftentimes allow ourselves to be limited (“boxed”) with our faith. Using the “box” as the core metaphor of the song, it represents our self-imposed (or community-imposed) limitations with religious traditions that prevents genuine a genuine relationship with God. John emphasizes that these limitations often run into conflict with the original intentions of God, to have a free flowing holy communion with God. The song is characterized by our sense of longing and our desire to re-approach our Faith with clean hands and a pure heart. From the opening lines itself, we are challenged to evaluate the current status of our faith and come to realize that it may never really what we intend it to be. Our intention from the start was born from a desire to start a deep and Holy Communion with God, and as the bridge and chorus approaches, the song has a more personal and prayerful tone. We a...

"The Cross" by Mhammed El Alami & HKL: At the Cross, Where Mercy Meets the Weary Heart

Rooted in the story of Jesus giving Himself at Calvary for everyone, "The Cross" by Mhammed El Alami & HKL turns this familiar message into a very personal invitation. Just stop carrying what is crushing you ( "Lay it down, let it go" ), surrender it to Christ, and let Him hold you. These lyrics are not only about the cross at Calvary. It's also about your cross, your fear, your shame, and your need for His peace. "Darkness fell, I was breaking fast," and we may count on the forgiving arms of a merciful Savior who is always there, even when our lives feel cold and heavy. "At the cross // You gave it all, you felt the cold // and love took hold // and made me whole." It's at the cross where "mercy bled and grace was born" for you, personally. It's where His grace clears your way home. What does that mean for us today? It means that we do not need to walk or carry our burdens alone. We may place everything that weighs u...

"He's My Rock" by Jamar Esaw & Triad 4 Christ: Finding Shelter in the Storm

(by Jasper Tan) “He’s My Rock” by Jamar Esaw & Triad4Christ featuring Koriann Lewis-Freeman is a powerful contemporary Gospel track that delivers a blend of traditional worship and modern soul. It reminds me of some of the songs by the band DC Talk, which was the definitive sound of modern Christian Contemporary Music when it exploded in the music scene back in the 90’s. This contemporary Gospel track brings forth an energetic sound that updates the way we sing our praise and worship sessions in our Churches. The song brings in a raw modern energy that breaks tradition while also encouraging worship sessions to be more in tune with the times, which brings a lot of youthful energy. The song is powered by Jamar Esaw’s smooth, commanding vocals and Koriann Lewis-Freeman’s additional vocal range. Bringing in an electric chemistry rooted in the authenticity of emotions as they sang the lyrics of the song. This is clearly felt during the song’s build-up to its climactic moments. With a r...
