Riley Clemmons - For The Good - Acoustic (CCM)

Riley Clemmons - For The Good - Acoustic
Riley Clemmons has released a Christian Contemporary Music (CCM) track called For The Good - Acoustic.

This song is a powerful reminder of the sovereignty of God is presented in "For the Good," which is based on Romans 8:28. For Clemmons, this song also has a personal significance.

Clemmons shares, "This song is deeply rooted in one of my favorite Bible verses of all time, Romans 8:28, saying `all things work together for the good for those who love God and are the called according to His purposes.'

This verse has brought my family & myself so much comfort over the past couple of years, as not only we've walked through a tough time as a family, but as we've watched the world around us change. Never so much before have we needed the promise that God is working things together for the good. I hope this song encourages you & reminds you, no matter what season you're walking through, that God is with you and for you."

LYRICS:

I wouldn't say I would've chosen it
That time I hit the bottom and it hurt a little bit
Funny how being down can make you look up

But now I'm better for it

All I could see in the moment was
My heart and how it felt ripped open, I'll admit
I found You down low in the brokenness
And now I'm better for it

I count it all as joy even when I'm in the flame
'Cause I know You always

Gimme, gimme, gimme grace when I need it
Hindsight 20/20, now I see that
You let me be where I've been
So I can be all that I am
You gimme, gimme, gimme faith to believe that
When it hurts, there's a real good reason
You let me be where I've been
So I can be all that I am

Yeah, I used to think pain was a consequence
But now I kinda think it might be the perfect gift
You use to get me straight to You
And I'm better for it

I count it all as joy even when I'm in the flame
'Cause I know You always

Gimme, gimme, gimme grace when I need it
Hindsight 20/20, now I see that
You let me be where I've been
So I can be all that I am
You gimme, gimme, gimme faith to believe that
When it hurts, there's a real good reason
You let me be where I've been
So I can be all that I am

Down low
Down in the broken
I found You
And I'm better for it
Down low
Down in the broken
I found You
And I'm better for it

I'm better 'cause I'll never have to be the way I would be
Without You, without You
Leading me where You want me
I'm better 'cause I'll never have to be the way I would be
Without You, without You
Leading me where You want me

Gimme, gimme, gimme grace when I need it
Hindsight 20/20, now I see that
You let me be where I've been
So I can be all that I am
You gimme, gimme, gimme faith to believe that
When it hurts, there's a real good reason
You let me be where I've been
So I can be all that I am

Down low
Down in the broken
I found You
And I'm better for it
Down low
Down in the broken
I found You
And I'm better for it

Down low
Down in the broken
I found You
And I'm better for it
Down low
Down in the broken
I found You
And I'm better for it

"Lead Me To The Cross" by Tiffany Ford: Surrendering All at the Cross

Tiffany Ford's rendition of "Lead Me To The Cross" is a tribute to the original song that was released approximately 10 years ago, around the same time that Tiffany started attending church with her family. The song beautifully reflects her own journey of learning about Jesus, especially His style of teaching … not by telling people what they needed to do, but by loving, healing, serving, and through His sacrifice.  One of Tiffany's favorite lines is "Rid me of myself," a contrast to the worldly focus of more is more, and shifting focus to faith, where we have all that we need, and embrace true freedom in Him. Tiffany emphasizes the message she found behind this line: "Lay your worries, your hang ups, lay everything down at the cross and follow me. Jesus died a death he didn't deserve so that we could live freely and this song serves as a good reminder for me."   It all comes together in the lines: "Savior I come // Quiet my soul, remembe...
