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.

"Clothed With Dignity" by Grace Frances: Trading Shame for a New Identity

Your worth was never up for negotiation.  Grace Frances wrote “Clothed With Dignity” from a place most of us recognize (in some form or other) but will rarely admit out loud. She carried old regrets like a second skin, calling herself names that her past mistakes didn’t deserve. “I demonize the girl I was, when she was just trying to survive,” she sings, and that line hurts. Haven’t we all judged ourselves for choices that we made while simply trying to get through the day? Even choices that seemed to be fine in the moment, but proved to be otherwise over time.  Grace’s breakthrough didn't come from fixing herself, but from surrendering… surrendering to God. “You clothe me with dignity,” she declares, describing a moment where self-condemnation lost its grip and grace took over.  Grace’s story is fairly similar to the story found in Isaiah 61:10 —  “I will greatly rejoice in the Lord; my soul shall exult in my God, for he has clothed me with the garments of salvation; h...

"Just Believe" by For Him: When Doubt Isn't Disqualifying

Can you believe without having all the answers? Some people wait at the edge of faith for years, arms crossed, waiting to feel ready. “Just Believe” was written by For Him for exactly that person — the one who wants to trust Jesus but still carries a list of questions. The song grew out of that in-between space, where doubt and faith sit side-by-side and neither one of them wins outright. Gritty Southern-rock guitars carry lyrics that ask a two-thousand-year-old question: “Could Love have worn a human face?” The answer to that question brings purpose and comfort to our lives. The song doesn’t demand certainty before you move. It invites wonder instead. “You don’t have to shape your future // He begins where you can’t reach.” The message and intent of this song make it clear that you don’t need to figure out everything first before you can take a step toward God.  A man quoted in the gospel of Mark understood this tension better than most of us. Desperate for his son to be healed,...

"I've Got Joy" by Tyler Philip Ratcliffe: Why Joy Isn't the Same as Happiness

Sorrow and joy can share the same room. “I’ve Got Joy” by Tyler Philip Ratcliffe was triggered by a telephone call. Tyler reconnected with an old friend who’d been going through a period of loneliness. Tyler shares: “We talked at length about the season of loneliness he was experiencing, and we discussed a few other topics that are reflected in the verses.” This triggered Tyler to tackle this concept of having Joy, and it became clear that “I’ve Got Joy” isn’t the same as “I’ve Got Happiness” . Joy is more than happiness, and it certainly isn’t a painted-on smile. Tyler makes that distinction on purpose, because he’s writing about the nights he spent “down to my last prayer,” and about sitting “in a room full of people” while feeling completely invisible. He’s writing about all of the kneeling and “begging for the answer to a question I can’t speak.” That’s real, and that’s most of us, on our worst weeks. The chorus takes us back to “joy”. Tyler sings: “I’ve got joy in my lungs, ye...
