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....

"How Good You Are" by ECTaylor: His Goodness Shines in Our Darkest Places

ECTaylor wrote "How Good You Are" one early morning while sitting outside alone, watching the sunrise and listening to the peaceful sounds of the woods. After more than a share of life's challenges, ECTaylor felt something almost sacred as the first light of day broke through the trees. He speaks about a "deep, whispered reminder of God's goodness that shines even in our darkest places." The lyrics immediately set the tone, "When morning breaks with golden light, Your mercy lifts me from the night," a tone of hope. It's amazing how simple wonders of nature, like the sparrow's singing and the flowing of a river, can remind us of God and His constant presence. ECTaylor shares, "I thought about Paul, worshiping God from a prison cell. I finally began to understand just a bit of how he could praise and be thankful in the midst of pain—because when you truly see who God is, gratitude rises above circumstance." Sometimes we are trappe...

'Lonely Dirt Road' by Dax: A Journey to Solitude and God

Dax's 'Lonely Dirt Road' is a conversation that Dax has with himself and God. Dax shares his journey of turning mental health walks into healing solitary drives. As you listen, you can almost feel the cruise, where it's just you, your thoughts, and God.  The chorus is so relatable: 'When I need space, that's where I go, a place to escape that nobody knows.' What do you do when life's pressures stack high? Do you also have a space where you can let go? That lonely dirt road that Dax sings about symbolizes solitude, but it is also an incredible opportunity for connecting with God.  Dax's honesty is raw and relatable. 'I didn't want my family to see me cry… dealing with the pressure of trying to provide.' There are times when we all put on a smile to hide how challenging situations may be. 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...
