Tenielle Neda, John Van Deusen - What is My Hope? - Acoustic (CCM) #IndieChristianStar


Tenielle Neda, John Van Deusen has released a Christian Contemporary Music (CCM) track called What is My Hope? (Acoustic).

Lyrics.

What is my hope in life in death?
That we are not our own but belong,
body and soul both in life and death to our saviour and our God. (repeat)
 
And if we live, we live for the Lord
And if we die, we die to the Lord
And if we live, we live for the Lord
And die to the Lord.
So then, in life or death,
We are the Lord’s children.
What glorious hope is this?
A resurrection gift,
Of consolation; restoration.
The loves we loved, the beauties but new,
Imagine the glory, the joy and the truth.
 
For he has paid fully for my sin, by his blood
and set me free from the power of the devil and man.
I am no longer bound; I’m a child of God.
 
And he preserves me in such a way,
That not a hair can fall from my head without
The will of God full of glory and grace.
He works everything for my salvation.
Praise Him!

And if we live, we live for the Lord
And if we die, we die to the Lord
And if we live, we live for the Lord
And die to the Lord.
So then, in life or death,
We are the Lord’s children.
What glorious hope is this?
A resurrection gift,
Of consolation; restoration.
The loves we loved, the beauties but new,
Imagine the glory, the joy and the truth.
 
Hope won’t put us to shame,
God’s love has been poured out.
His Spirit given to us,
Ungodly made righteous. (repeat)
 
And if we live, we live for the Lord
And if we die, we die to the Lord
And if we live, we live for the Lord
And die to the Lord.
So then, in life or death,
We are the Lord’s children.
What glorious hope is this?
A resurrection gift,
Of consolation; restoration.
The loves we loved, the beauties but new,
Imagine the glory, the joy and the truth.
  
What is my hope in life and death?

"Guide Me (O, Thou Great Jehovah) / Oceans (Where Feet May Fail)" by Ezra Worship Initiative – Ancient Wisdom, Fresh Waves

I'm sitting in traffic, Spotify on shuffle, listening to my collection of new releases. That's when the song "Guide Me (O, Thou Great Jehovah) / Oceans (Where Feet May Fail)" by Ezra Worship Initiative starts to play. The song starts with a revamp of a 280-year-old hymn "Guide Me O Thou Great Jehovah", and then beautifully transitions to the chorus of Hillsong's "Oceans (Where Feet May Fail)". This medley made my heart do a little cartwheel!  The hymn "Guide Me, O Thou Great Jehovah" (originally "Arglwydd, arwain trwy'r anialwch" in Welsh) by William Williams (a Welsh Methodist preacher) was inspired by the biblical story of the Israelites' exodus from Egypt. Williams wrote this in 1745 as a plea to God for guidance while traveling through life's wilderness. A 280-year-old plea that is still very relevant for us today.  "I am weak, but Thou art mighty // hold me with thy powerful hand," a thought that ...

'Lonely Dirt Road' by Dax: A Journey to Solitude and God

Dax's 'Lonely Dirt Road' is a conversation that Dax has with himself and God. Dax shares his journey of turning mental health walks into healing solitary drives. As you listen, you can almost feel the cruise, where it's just you, your thoughts, and God.  The chorus is so relatable: 'When I need space, that's where I go, a place to escape that nobody knows.' What do you do when life's pressures stack high? Do you also have a space where you can let go? That lonely dirt road that Dax sings about symbolizes solitude, but it is also an incredible opportunity for connecting with God.  Dax's honesty is raw and relatable. 'I didn't want my family to see me cry… dealing with the pressure of trying to provide.' There are times when we all put on a smile to hide how challenging situations may be. Like his father, Dax says that he finds peace on this lonely road, where challenges become opportunities to grow. This shows the core of our faith: that...

"Heartbeat" by Laura Leighe - Dancing in Worship

Here's a song that's more or less been stuck in my head since I heard it. It's called 'Heartbeat' by Laura Leighe and is what Laura calls a "reggaeton-influenced Christian pop duet" that's all about surrendering to God's rhythm and dancing in worship, no matter what life throws your way.  The lyrics remind me of two scriptures: "Praise him with timbrel and dancing, praise him with the strings and pipe."  - Psalm 150:4 (NIV) and "Wearing a linen ephod, David was dancing before the Lord with all his might."  - 2 Samuel 6:14 (NIV). Maybe I'm a bit prejudiced because the song reminds us of our own thoughts when we founded "Christian Dance" years ago and picked a name. Focusing on music that allows us to feel joy and causes us (our hearts) to dance for God, a pure form of worship that we know is pleasing to God. The lyrics are about surrendering our control and trusting in God's plan. Laura sings, "I bet you f...
