Sylvia and the Sibs - Lyrics Make the Song (CCM)

Sylvia and the Sibs - Lyrics Make the Song
Sylvia and the Sibs have released a Christian Contemporary Music (CCM) track called 'Lyrics Make the Song'.

Nohemi writes: "Earlier this year (2021), we were having a family debate as to what "makes" the song - the melody or the lyrics? Well, the Sibs wrote a song that settles that debate...check it out."


Lyrics

Intro:
Ooooh, Ooooh,
Ooooh, Ooooh
The lyrics make the song
Ooooh, Ooooh,
Ooooh, Ooooh
The lyrics make the song

Verse 1
I hum a tune
I'm making it blues
You show me the words that I should use
I hear a song on the radio
Snooze
It has no worth
If it ain't about you

Chorus 1 & 2 & 3
You give me the lyrics
I make a song
The melody is fine, but
It sure ain't the point
You give me the lyrics
I make a song
A song without you
can never be strong

Verse 2
Some songs can even
Save people too
That's why the lyrics
Are the point that
Gets through
Just one chord left
But the words will extend
If you have Jesus
The joy never ends
The joy never ends!

Bridge (x4)
We praise Him with song
We worship with love
We praise Him with music
With lyrics of gold

Final Tag (x3)
All about You
All about You
The lyrics make the song

"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...
