TobyMac - Promised Land (CCM)

TobyMac - Promised Land
TobyMac has released a Christian Contemporary Music (CCM) track called Promised Land.

With "Promised Land," he follows up his No. 1 hit "Help Is On The Way (Maybe Midnight)." The song is available across all digital service providers and is being featured on Christian radio around the world.

"I think if we're honest, each of us have wondered, where is the promised land?," he remarks. "...Where's the blessing for me and my family that I thought would come my way on this earth when I chose to follow the King of Kings?"
 
TobyMac shared the video on Facebook in memory of his grandpa, a miner in West Virginia, where TobyMac's dad grew up in a mining camp. "It was a hard life," he says. "A life where I imagine they must have really wondered where in the world is my promised land?"
 
He says: "The lyics land where I want my life to land: that the promised land is no land at all, but a relationship with the King that loves us deeply. It turns from where's my promised land, to you're my promised land. Maybe the promised land we're looking for is no place at all, but a person named Jesus." 

Lyrics "Promised Land"

Head down as I punch this clock
The hours roll they never stop
And I can't ever seem to get ahead

Always tryin' to do what's right
The straight and narrows getting tight
Don't know how much longer I can stand

And I'm wonderin' yeah I'm wonderin'
Where's my promised land

Out here on this dessert road
It's hot as fire but I've grown cold
Circlin' like a plane that never lands

And even though the questions change
The answers always stay the same
Maybe someday I will understand

So I'm wonderin', got me wonderin'
Where's my promised land

Yeah I'm wonderin' still I'm wonderin'
Where's my promised land

Well I've run this earth for many years
And there's one thing I know
There's nowhere on this side of heaven
Where streets are made of gold
I've long laid down my grand illusions
Lookin' toward the day that I'll be home

I won't give up on this race
Broken but I still have faith
That this old life is all part of a plan
And I can feel it in my soul
One day I'll stand before the throne
With nothing left but hope in these 2 hands

Through all these seasons, I'm still believin'
You're my promised land
In all my grievin' I'm still believin'
You're my promise land

You're my promise land
You're my promise land
You're my promise land

"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....

"Tucker's Song" by Stephen M. Miller: A Tender Tribute to a Loyal Friend

Beneath this gentle Americana-style song, "Tucker's Song" by Stephen M. Miller, is the heartbreak of a seven-year-old boy. The day his grandson had to say goodbye to his dog, Tucker, he asked Stephen, "Will you write a song for Tucker? Can we pretend he's still around?" How can you not say "Yes" to such a request?  This song offers comfort by simply being honest. Instead of dramatizing the grief, the message sits with it and invites the listener to reflect as well. It's lines like "Sing the song to Tucker, sing to all dogs gone away" that remind us that precious memories endure. Have you ever asked yourself how to comfort a grieving child? I know that these situations often remind me that we're all searching for hope after more than one loss! On top of that, how can you extend that hope to a grieving child? Even in situations like the loss of a dear four-legged pet, there is a message of faith to be found: "Sing to God, the...
