Red Letter Society - CANYON (CCM)

Red Letter Society - CANYON
Red Letter Society has released a Christian Contemporary Music (CCM) track called CANYON.

The third installment to Red Letter Society's upcoming album “Pioneer” explores the depths of God’s love for us. Not only does God love us ‘while we were still sinners,’ but He knows us by name!

“Canyon” begins with a small intimate arrangement reminding us of the closeness of God and bringing the song back to its origin, a simple song written on a mountain by a campfire. Later, the song explodes into a triumphant anthem of worship responding to God’s love.

Lyrics:

Verse
I dare not even draw near 
For this is holy ground 
This mountain sparks in me fear 
But I hear a precious  sound 


Prechorus
You call my soul to ascend 
The hill of the heavens 
You called my wretched heart a friend. 
Welcomed me to your presence

Verse 
Your goodness welcomes me here  
And on this holy ground 
Valleys of shame disappear 
As You speak a precious sound 


Chorus
How dark is my valley 
At the foot of your mountain
Your glory and fire ablaze
And I am amazed 
I am amazed

How deep are the canyons 
Filled with your goodness 
That you would even know me by name 
Oh I am amazed
I am amazed 

Bridge 
Your goodness calls me 
My heart will listen 
As deep calls to deep 
It’s you alone I’ll seek

"In Victory" by Veanea: Praise Is How You Live in Victory

Jesus rose. That changes everything about today. Veanea had a simple goal: glorify the God of signs and wonders. What she didn’t expect was how quickly He would show up in the process.  Veanea had been working on a verse when a chorus for the song broke through —  “Amazing signs and wonders King!” She sang it over and over, sat down at the keys, and the bridge practically wrote itself. That evening, she prayed honestly, telling God she couldn’t write about His wonders without completely depending on Him. The next morning, on a train, she opened her Bible to Psalm 66. The verses seemed to sing right off the page in the exact melody she’d just received. She laughed, realizing that God had already answered.  That same joy runs through every line of the song. “You calmed the storm and stilled the wind and Your arm split the sea // So I can walk ahead in victory.” The God who parted waters for Israel is the same God who is walking with you through whatever it is that you’re carry...

"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 ...

"Not Every Light Is Heaven" by whispering HOPE: How to Tell Real Light from Deception

How do you tell true Light from imitations? Something glittering always seems to promise more. Diamonds in the darkness, a glow on the horizon — your eyes move toward it before your mind catches up. That pull is what whispering HOPE is pointing out in this song: the way imitated brightness can masquerade as a blessing, but slowly draws you away from peace rather than into it. The lyrics describe an experience most of us will recognize. “Every glow looked like a promise, but it pulled me out of peace.” You’ve been there. A relationship, an opportunity, a version of success that sparkled just long enough to seem like the answer — but in reality it left emptiness behind. “Every spark without Your presence left a hollow in its place.” That emptiness is an important signal to pay attention to. The apostle Paul named this dynamic in 2 Corinthians 11:14 —  “Even Satan disguises himself as an angel of light.” Deception rarely announces itself. It arrives dressed as an opportunity, appearing...
