Moving Mountain Worship - Prayer of David (Psalm 71) (CCM)

Moving Mountain Worship - Prayer of David (Psalm 71)
Moving Mountain Worship has released a Christian Contemporary Music (CCM) track called Prayer of David (Psalm 71).

Dale Rugge shares: "The Holy Spirit pointed the lyrical direction of this song to Psalm 71, where King David pours out his heart to God in earnest prayer. He refers to God again and again as the source of his strength as he pleads for deliverance from, and God's justice upon, his enemies. This song has a distinctly Messianic Jewish vibe, and puts the themes of King David's prayer from Psalm 71 in modern verse and rhyme. Instruments with sounds similar to the Lute, the Harp and the Timbrel are used in keeping with what might have been heard in King David's court as accompaniment for the Psalm."

Lyrics:

In You oh Lord, do I take refuge. Deliver me, may I be rescued.
Let no one else shame me, Hear Lord won’t You save me. You are my rock, to You I come.
My stronghold and my dwelling; my fortress so compelling.
Rescue me Lord from the wicked ones.                      

You are my hope. You are my confidence. And from my youth, You taught deliverance.
My praise continually of thee. My words speak of Your glory. Forsake me not in advancing years. 
And when my strength has left me, Lord You still protect me.
Make haste to help me and hear my prayers.

I praise You God for Your faithfulness. To You I sing, of Your deliverance.
For You alone are righteous. You restore and revive us. Lord won’t You do this once again.
And to this generation, I’ll declare Your salvation.
Your might and Your power yet to come.      

To future generations, I declare Your salvation.
Your might and Your power, yet to come.

"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...
