Matthew Parker, Davis Smith - Telescope
Matthew Parker and Davis Smith have released a Christian Contemporary Music (CCM) track called Telescope.

"Telescope" is a very upbeat, hopeful song about a lovelorn fellow who can't seem to find a way to get the girl he has feelings for to realize how he feels, with lyrics like "You don't need a telescope, baby I'm right here." Also featuring the sentimental vocals of Davis Smith, this song hits in a very relatable way for anyone who's ever loved someone. Great for any upbeat feel-good summer playlist!

Lyrics:

[Intro]
You don't need a telescope, baby

[Verse]
It was a midsummer night
All your friends and I
Were stargazin' in your backyard
You had an old telescope
And I could only hope
Our love was written up in the stars

[Pre-Chorus]
I spy with my little eye
A twinkle that ain't comin' from the sky
You're blind in both your eyes
If you can't see the love in mine

[Chorus]
You don't need a telescope, baby
I'm right here
And I'm wishin' on a shootin' star
So when you gonna realize
Baby, your eyes
Look like two supernovas to mine
You can see the Milky Way
You can see Halley's Comet
So tell me why can't you see me
In front of you, ooh
Lovin' you

[Hook]
You don't need a telescope, baby

[Verse 2]
Midnight moon
Starlight view
I don't wanna say goodnight to you
Daydreams are makin' me crazy
So I've been stayin' up lately
Just to get closer to you

[Pre-Chorus]
I spy with my little eye (with my little eye)
A twinkle that ain't comin' from the sky (— your eye)
You're blind in both your eyes (both your eyes)
If you can't see the love in mine

[Chorus]
You don't need a telescope, baby
I'm right here
And I'm wishin' on a shootin' star
So when you gonna realize
Baby, your eyes
Look like two supernovas to mine
You can see the Milky Way
You can see Halley's Comet
So tell me why can't you see me
In front of you, ooh
Lovin' you

[Hook]
You don't need a telescope

[Bridge]
Houston, we got a problem
No contact, signals crossing
I'd give you anything, everything
If you could only see

[Chorus]
You don't need a telescope, baby
I'm right here
And I'm wishin' on a shootin' star
So when you gonna realize
Baby, your eyes
Look like two supernovas to mine
You can see the Milky Way
You can see Halley's Comet
So tell me why can't you see me
In front of you, ooh
Lovin' you

[Hook]
You don't need a telescope, baby
You don't need a telescope, baby

[Outro]
You can see the Milky Way
You can see Halley's Comet
So tell me why can't you see me
In front of you, ooh
Lovin' you

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...

"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...
