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

"Your Love" by Kevin Winebarger - When Mercy Becomes Your Identity

Kevin Winebarger teamed up with Joshua Frerichs and Benji Cowart to create this beautiful song. "Your Love" tackles that discouraging voice we all hear from time to time, the one that whispers that we're not enough and that we are defined by our past. "Once a liar, always a liar," and all kinds of variations along this same line of thought. This song isn't about wallowing in shame. "Your Love" is a celebration of the grace that changes everything.  The opening lines hit hard: "I could believe that I'm not enough // It's clear to see I don't measure up." Yep, we've all been there! But this isn't how God want us to be defined… He loved us first! "It's just what You've done // Because of Your love." That's the heart of everything.  Kevin places the change the God brings into perspective, "I could believe that my mistakes // Will follow me down into the grave // But I'm not who I was....

"Ebenezer" by David Dowdell: Faithful Before, Faithful Now, Faithful Forever

Looking back builds the courage to keep moving forward.  Samuel once set up a stone after a battle and named it Ebenezer, saying, “Till now the Lord has helped us.” That single stone became a marker, a physical reminder planted in the ground so nobody could walk past it and forget what God had done. “Ebenezer” by David Dowdell borrows that same idea. “Here I raise my Ebenezer, only by your help I’ve come,” the lyrics declare, and that line carries generations of gratitude.  Think about your own life for a moment. Where have you seen God show up? Maybe it was a financial provision you can’t fully explain, or a battle against sin you thought you’d never win. The song declares: “You’ve brought me victory in the battle against sin and self-defeat.” That’s a testimony, the kind worth remembering on your hardest days. Your Ebenezer.  Here’s why remembering matters so much. Psalm 77:11 says, “I will remember the deeds of the Lord; yes, I will remember your wonders of old.” Y...

"No One Like You Jesus" by Morgan Starner: Why Only Jesus Can Carry Your Burdens

Who really deserves your loudest praise? “No One Like You Jesus” by Morgan Starner didn’t start in a studio. It started as a voice memo, hummed late at night, half-formed and unfinished. Morgan took that fragile melody into the studio and built it up, layer by layer, until it held over 100 stacked vocals. The result sounds like a celebration. Bright, rhythmic, and impossible to sit still while listening. That’s the point of this song… Gospel-pop with a modern pulse, made to move bodies and hearts at the same time.  Listen to the bridge, and you’ll hear a question underneath the beat: “Who else gonna take my burdens? Who else gonna get me through?” Morgan answers the question without hesitation. “No one else but You.”   Scripture asks the same question, thousands of years earlier. Here is how Moses responded after crossing the Red Sea: “Who is like you, O Lord, among the gods? Who is like you, majestic in holiness, awesome in glorious deeds, doing wonders?” (Exodus 15:11, ESV...
