Rorie - Resonate (CCM)

Rorie has released a Christian Contemporary Music (CCM) track called Resonate.

Rorie wrote "Resonate" alone in her living room during the turbulence of the year 2020, which ended with her and her husband going through a heartbreaking miscarriage. “Resonate” is a worship song filled with the hope of the Gospel, conveying the way that the good news resonates both through sound waves and inside hearts. Rorie writes: "In a year filled with so much heartache, both globally and personally, I felt strongly compelled to sing about the reason behind the hope that I have. It’s not because of anything I’ve done or will do, or because of what I can see here in the temporary, but because of who Jesus is and all that He has done. It changes everything!""

Resonate” was produced by Nashville-based 2x Grammy-nominated and multiple Dove award-winning producer Jordan Sapp (Jeremy Camp, Tauren Wells, Riley Clemmons).

The single will be followed by an EP, which is set to release on September 10, 2021.

Lyrics

On my own I had no faith, no place to rest

Just a complicated past, and a goal to do my best

Even when I tried the world kept crashing down

Til You led me from sinking sand to solid ground

Let hope rise in this place

And Hallelujahs resonate

Death has no power in Your name

Jesus, the one who saves

You are the one who saves

(Ohh)

We could not repair the damage that was made

Your holiness so powerful, our brokenness so great

Even then redemption entered on the scene

A story being written to set captives free

Let hope rise in this place

And Hallelujahs resonate

Death has no power in Your name

Jesus, the one who saves

You are the one who saves

Hallelujah, let it resonate

What shame declared as hopeless

Your promise overcame

You bore it on the cross, standing in my place

And in the quiet hour the grave could not contain

Your resurrection power

All glory to Your name

Hallelujah, let it resonate

Let hope rise in this place

And Hallelujahs resonate

Death has no power in Your name

Jesus, the one who saves

Let hope rise in this place

And Hallelujahs resonate

Death has no power in Your name

Jesus, the one who saves

You are the one who saves

(Ohh)

"As My Body Breaks" by Iossa: Faith That Defies Suffering

Sometimes the seed for the most powerful worship is planted during life's weakest moments. The idea for "As My Body Breaks" by Iossa originated in a hospital room, where Filipino singer Jyel Tagbo was fighting Stage 5 kidney disease. Dean Mark Hilario Enoza saw how Jyel continued to worship with unwavering faith in the midst of extreme pain and suffering. The lyrics for this song are deeply inspired by Jyel's journey, and it shouldn't be a surprise that the song is dedicated to him. So, what do you sing when pain becomes your daily companion? The second verse confesses, "The poison creeps, the pain runs deep," but despair isn't an option! The chorus encourages you to look beyond despair: "Is this the end, the last refrain? // But I believe, I'll sing again." That feeling of despair isn't the end of the story. With God by your side, whatever feels like a breaking point will become a breakthrough moment: "As my body breaks, my...

"Meet Me in the Valley" by Tasha Layton: God in the Low Places

We've all experienced times in our lives when everything feels impossible, and it feels like God is nowhere near. Tasha Layton sings about that very struggle in her song, "Meet Me in the Valley." Tasha calls out those painful moments and places them in the context of promises that you can read in Psalm 23. God promises that goodness and mercy will follow us, even through life's darkest seasons. Tasha shared the main takeaway of this song on her Instagram account: "You are not forgotten. You are not alone. God meets you right where you are." We often aren't able to recognize His grace until we're desperately needing it, and honestly, we often don't appreciate what we have (and what He has given us) until everything falls apart. But instead of dwelling in despair, Tasha reminds us to look upwards, and ask for His help: "In the middle of the war // Tell me that I'll make it // When I'm not sure // You'll be faithful." We...

"Gentle" by Andrew Macdonald: Finding Grace in Life's Hardest Moments

(by Jasper Tan) Have you heard of any heartfelt song lately that elaborates on the pain, yet the yearning for healing feels so heart-wrenching? Andrew Macdonald's latest song, "Gentle," feels just like that. In what seems like a conversational piece with someone, the song actually is a prayer yearning for God's grace and healing. The lush sound of the acoustic guitar, coupled with the heartfelt delivery of the vocals, delivers a certain kind of sincerity wherein Andrew pours his heart out to Jesus. It is very seldom to hear songs wherein the singer cuts through our emotions just enough for us to feel an affinity to his pleas. And Andrew's outreach for help through prayer is something that really cuts through our own pains when we are in those moments of vulnerability while we deal with our own issues. Though the song starts off as a sad song and the lines that are delivered feel so gloomy and hopeless, the song makes a stark change for the better when it starts to...
