Charity Rouse - For a Thousand (CCM)

Charity Rouse - For a Thousand
Charity Rouse has released a Christian Contemporary Music (CCM) track called For a Thousand.

Charity shares: "I was a worship leader for about 14 years and one of my favorite hymns has always been O For a Thousand Tongues to Sing. I love the lyrics and the meaning behind the song. One day after leading the hymn in church I went home and couldn't stop singing it. I wanted to keep going and keep singing so I sat down and figured out a new chorus. I also love the story behind why Charles Wesley wrote it. It is so deep and rich and beautiful!!"

Lyrics:

O for a thousand tongues to sing
My great Redeemer's praise
The glories of my God and King
The triumphs of His grace!

Jesus! The name that charms our fears
That bids our sorrows cease
Tis music in the sinner's ears
Tis life and health and peace

So proclaim His great name
In every place
Shout for Joy so that all
May hear of His grace
O proclaim

He breaks the power of canceled sin
He sets the prisoner free
His blood can make the foulest clean
Oh it worked for me

Oh all you broken, lost and bruised
Come hear this good news
You can be whole and filled with joy
Oh how can you refuse?

Come proclaim His great name
In every place
Shout for Joy so that all
May hear of His grace
O proclaim

My gracious master and my God
Assist me to proclaim
To spread through all the earth abroad
The honors of your name

Come proclaim His great name
In every place
Shout for Joy so that all
May hear of Your grace

O proclaim Your great name
In every place
Shout for Joy so that all
May hear of Your grace
O proclaim

"Man I Used To Be" by Dax: Half the Weight, Double the Faith

"Man I Used To Be" by Dax is a very personal song. Dax had promised himself that he wouldn't release new music until he'd stayed sober for six months, the time he needed to get his priorities straight and clear his mind. "Man I Used To Be" is the sound of his first clean breath, life with God by his side. Dax lays it bare: "Trials and tribulations, all my past trauma," he acknowledges, along with "generational curses from daddy and mama," and the "addictions that clouded my eyes." The honesty about his past struggles makes the message of this song so relatable and powerful.  The chorus is about the moment that the script was flipped, "I'm half the man I used to be." Not a broken man, but a man who has been freed from the burdens that weren't his to carry and kept him from God. "I don't ever chase, I got God," declaring that his new identity is anchored in faith. It's a shrug and a testimo...

"The List Goes On (Jordan's Song)" by Chris Sarver: Finding Freedom in Faith

Have you ever felt the weight of the past (old chains) even after you're free? Chris Sarver's "The List Goes On (Jordan's Song)" addresses this specific struggle. Chris shared the following: "Like many of you, I have been part of text thread groups whose main purpose is for encouragement and prayer. … About four years ago, in one of those men's groups, my friend from church, Jordan Hanks, shared a message you can see in the picture. It was simple. He wrote about how sometimes we feel the old weight we carried before Jesus lifted it. And when that weight tries to creep back in, he reminds himself of the names Jesus has earned in his life. He is a Healer." In other words, when shame whispers lies, we must speak truth louder. The lyrics confess, "The chains are gone, sometimes I still find that I can feel their weight." Instead of hiding this feeling, Chris Sarver turns it into a moment of worship. He calls out names that Jesus has earned in...

"Praise You In The Morning" by Taylor Pride: Waking up to the sound of Worship

(by Jasper Tan) Taylor Pride's latest single, "Praise You In The Morning" is an uplifting song that is a powerful reminder of God's faithfulness in different seasons and circumstances. The song is an acknowledgement that even if we are facing hardships and difficulties, we should still continue to praise God, for he is our provider and protector. And that he has promised to redeem us in his perfect time. The song follows an established style of Taylor's "heart-on-your-sleeve" type of worship song, drawing inspiration for this song's music from the likes of Cody Carnes and Phil Wickham's songs, the likes of which are simple with an easy-to-sing chorus layered by joyful sounds. The lyrics serve as a prayer for those in the "desert seasons," suggesting that praise is a choice made even in times of uncertainty with our faith. The song uses the transition from night to day as a metaphor for moving from weeping to hope. It is a modern worship...
