Kali Joy - Sand (CCM)

Kali Joy has released a Christian Contemporary Music (CCM) track called Sand.

Kali shares: "I wrote Sand last summer after I was in a worship service where they read several verses from Psalm 139. The verses immediately captured my imagination in a way that they never had before. The passage says that God's thoughts, if we were to count them, outnumber the grains of sand. That is insane to me! That God thinks of you and of me more than we can even comprehend. He knew us before we were even born, because he created us. And he also believes in us enough that he's willing to patiently walk with us as we become all that he created us to be.

I was raised in the church, but I think as is the case with many people who are raised in the church it is much easier to know about God instead of actually knowing him personally. I have been on a journey of allowing God's presence and love to flood into my life. His amazing love is becoming more and more real to me the more that I get to know him, and it's truly delivering me from every fear and anxiety, from condemnation and guilt, and from the grips of shame and emptiness. My prayer is that God would breathe his presence into lives through this song to many many more who long to not just know about God, but really know him. Jesus came that we may have life and have it abundantly!"

Kali Joy - Sand
Lyrics

Were I to count your thoughts for me
They’d outnumber every grain of sand
Were I to count your thoughts for me
They’d outnumber every grain of sand in the sea 

Your love is like an ocean 
Sweeping my fears away
And your love is how I know I’ll make it to the other side of
This raging storm into wide open places of your love

From dust you brought me into life
Made me in your very likeness
You raised my soul up from the grave
Savior healer everything I want and need

Oh your love is like a river 
washing these sins away
And your love is how I know I’m forgiven
Of my past completely new and unashamed because of love

May I not just know about you
But really know you
May I not just know about you
I was made to know you

May I not just know about you
But really know you
Yeah may I not just know about you
I was made to know you

May I not just know about you
But really know you
Yeah may I not just know about you

I was made to know you

Cuz your love is like a flood that’s filling 
this desert soul 
And your love is living water that will 
satisfy this emptiness 
Your love will last for all of time

Were I to count your thoughts for me

They’d outnumber every grain of sand

"Your Love" by Kevin Winebarger - When Mercy Becomes Your Identity

Kevin Winebarger teamed up with Joshua Frerichs and Benji Cowart to create this beautiful song. "Your Love" tackles that discouraging voice we all hear from time to time, the one that whispers that we're not enough and that we are defined by our past. "Once a liar, always a liar," and all kinds of variations along this same line of thought. This song isn't about wallowing in shame. "Your Love" is a celebration of the grace that changes everything.  The opening lines hit hard: "I could believe that I'm not enough // It's clear to see I don't measure up." Yep, we've all been there! But this isn't how God want us to be defined… He loved us first! "It's just what You've done // Because of Your love." That's the heart of everything.  Kevin places the change the God brings into perspective, "I could believe that my mistakes // Will follow me down into the grave // But I'm not who I was....

'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...

"Come Let Us Go" by NARROWAY: Journey to the Mountain of Light

It's difficult to imagine that there will be a day when all nations are tired of the chaos and finally ask, "Where do we go from here?" The answer to that question is the theme of NARROWAY's "Come, Let Us Go." The lyrics are inspired by Isaiah 2 and Micah 4, and look forward to "… the days that are coming, the mountain will rise // Lifted above all the nations and skies // People will gather from near and far // Saying, "Let's go to where His teachings are." As we observe the chaos in the world, the wars, and the rumor of wars, it's hard to imagine that "Swords turned to plows, war fades away // Shalom will reign in Yah's good way." Believe it or not, there will be a day with "No more fear, no more fight // Just His Torah shining bright." But the key message of this song isn't a distant promise! The lyrics pull us to the here and now… our present reality. The reality is that God's Kingdom is stepping on...
