Lyrics:

Head so heavy on the pillowcase
Eyes staring out the window pane
The harder that I try
The more I lose the fight

Think I'm fine then here it goes
What if's and scenarios
Betrayal by my mind
Feeling paralyzed

I'm hanging by a thread
Everything keeps running through my head
Can't stop the chaos around me
But I can surrender what's in me

Be my peace
Be my light
Be my one and only
Through my fear
Day and night
Be the one who holds me
Father give me new life
Spirit renew my mind
Oh, be my peace
Be my light
Be the one who gives me rest

My rest

Try so hard just to make it work
Head down hands in the dirt
Carrying the weight
Hoping it's okay

Smile and try to cover my emotion
But I'm really drowning in an ocean
It won't go away
So I guess I'm not okay

Be my peace
Be my light
Be my one and only
Through my fear
Day and night
Be the one who holds me
Father give me new life
Spirit renew my mind
Be my peace
Be my light
Be the one who gives me rest

My rest

Being scared isn't sinful
But God sometimes I'm forgetful
That You're right here in the middle
Father help me remember

Being scared isn't sinful
But God sometimes I'm forgetful
That You're right here in the middle
Father help me remember

That You want to carry this for me
This isn't the end of my story
Your love is forever restoring
Forever restoring

Yes You want to carry this for me
This isn't the end of my story
Your love is forever restoring
Forever restoring

Be my peace
Be my light
Be my one and only
Through my fear
Day and night
Be the one who holds me
Father give me new life
Spirit renew my mind

Be my peace
Be my light
Be the one who gives me rest
My rest

"Is Anybody There? (Psalm 27)" by Stephen M. Miller: Holding On to Grace at Heaven’s Door

Stephen M. Miller's "Is Anybody There? (Psalm 27)" comes in the quiet aftermath of the Christmas celebrations, when reflection can feel like isolation. Stephen's song isn't about polishing away his mistakes, nor does it encourage you to do so with your mistakes. Stephen shares his painful experience, "I never saw it coming Lord // It felt right but it was wrong // Family and friends have left me // But I still have you and a song."   Stephen owns the fallout of his actions, taking accountability without despair. "I said it and I did it, Lord // Broke more hearts than I'll ever know // I can't fix this, though I've tried // Don't be angry, and please don't go." His song is a prayer for God's presence and guidance. "Hear me when I call you, Lord // Don't turn your face away // Don't give up on me like others have // Come help me through this day." Stephen describes a fear that we too experience when we ...

"Fishers of Men" by Tyler Philip Ratcliffe: Dropping Your Nets and Following Without Looking Back

Jesus doesn’t call the qualified. He qualifies the called.  “Fishers of Men” by Tyler Philip Ratcliffe was written back in July of 2024. It was the first Christian folk-style song that Tyler had ever written, and he had no idea at the time that God was going to pull him in that direction. It’s a favorite among his friends and family, and God recently laid it on his heart to share it with the rest of the world.  The song draws from the ordinary moments when Jesus walked up to fishermen and tax collectors and said two words that changed everything: “Follow Me.”   What strikes you in the lyrics is the honesty. “My friends thought I was crazy, and my folks just shook their heads.” Following Jesus has always looked strange from the outside. Peter left a fishing business. Matthew walked away from a lucrative government post. Neither of these men had it all figured out, but they simply responded to a call they couldn’t ignore.  Maybe you also know that feeling. The moment ...

"Born Again" by PeterLs: One Decision, One Lifetime of Walking With Jesus

Some choices mark the beginning of an entirely different life.   In a small Polish town called Podkowa Leśna, a choice was made that PeterLs has never stopped celebrating. Twenty-two years ago, he stepped into the waters of baptism and came out a different person. “Born Again” is his testimony — honest, grateful, and filled with the kind of faith that continues to grow. “Twenty-two years ago, I chose the life, to follow Jesus, day and night.” This isn’t a song that celebrates that specific moment twenty-two years ago; it’s a celebration of every moment since then!  The song has an interesting detail that is worth pointing out. The total duration of the song is 3:16, which in turn is a deliberate nod to John 3:16. This is the scripture where Jesus told a Pharisee named Nicodemus, “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life.” Eternal life isn’t something you can earn. It’s something you recei...
