Chris Tomlin, We The Kingdom - Christmas Day - Live (CCM / Christmas)

Chris Tomlin, We The Kingdom - Christmas Day - Live
Chris Tomlin, We The Kingdom has released a Christian Contemporary Music (CCM) track called Christmas Day - Live.

As far as I'm aware, Chris Tomlin is the first artist this year to start releasing Christmas songs!

Christmas is one of my favorite times of the year because it's a time when people from different countries come together to celebrate Christmas in one way or another. The holiday season is a time for family reunions and sharing warm feelings of appreciation and warmth. I believe the spirit and message of Christmas deserve more than just a month or two around the holidays. This is one of the reasons why we update our Christmas playlists throughout the year.

My heart immediately begins to feel Christmas-like `when listening to Chris Tomlin's 'Christmas Day - Live'. I hope that listening to this song will at least spark excitement for the upcoming Christmas season in every single one of you.


Lyrics:

Joy to the world
On a night like no other 
Emmanuel
God is with us
Beggars and kings
Let us come and adore Him Rest in His peace
And bow before Him
 
Sing all you people
The Lord Almighty reigns
Sing every creature of God
Come bless His name
For He is good, for He is good
He was born to conquer the grave 
Light of the world
The reason for Christmas Day
 
Stars we have seen 
Over deserts and oceans 
The darkness was deep 
But never hopeless
Redemption came
And His name is Jesus
 
From the mountains
We will shout it out
For the Lord our God Almighty reigns 
He is with us
He is with us now
For the Lord our God Almighty reigns 
From the mountains
We will shout it out
For the Lord our God Almighty reigns 
He is with us
He is with us now
For the Lord our God Almighty reigns

"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...
