Tootsie Williams - God's Love (Gospel)

Tootsie Williams - God's Love
Tootsie Williams has released a Gospel track called God's Love.

Tootsie writes: "'God's Love' come at a time when I was reflecting on my life. I was a young, single mother, my mom died not too long ago, I struggled emotionally and financially and my home life wasn't very stable. As I rode the NYC A train to work, riding over the Jamaica Bay, I looked out over the water and started hearing the lyrics. I wrote the song 'God's Love'on that train ride and it was like a love letter to me and the world. I knew in that moment I was moving toward purpose."

Lyrcs:

The love of God is greater than
anything you’ll ever know
and the love of God goes deeper than
the river or the ocean's flow
for the love of God is stronger than
the wind of any storm that comes
who can understand God‘s love for man
and how far His love will go
to redeem man from the curse of sin
God's love sent his only son
to restore man from the state we're in
God‘s love, lived, died and rose again
to save man from the death sin brings
Jesus was the sacrifice (hung on a cross for you and me yea)
and draw us to his plan again
God chose love (Repeat)
to bring men back to Him
the love of God is greater than
the problems that this life can bring
and the love of God goes deeper than
the matters that the heart contain
ooh for the love of God is stronger than
the bond between mother and child
who can understand God's love man
and all of the reasons why
to redeem man from the curse of sin
God's love sent his only son
to restore man from the state we're in
God‘s love, lived, died and rose again
to save man from the death sin brings
Jesus was the sacrifice
and draw us to his plan again
God chose love (Repeat)
to bring men back to Him
to bring men back to Him (repeat)
it was before the foundation of the world he planned
that he was in the Son
the Son will hang up on the cross
and shed his blood for our sin, oh yeah
what manner of love is this he would lay down his life for a friend, yeah
bring us back to him (Repeat)

"Guide Me (O, Thou Great Jehovah) / Oceans (Where Feet May Fail)" by Ezra Worship Initiative – Ancient Wisdom, Fresh Waves

I'm sitting in traffic, Spotify on shuffle, listening to my collection of new releases. That's when the song "Guide Me (O, Thou Great Jehovah) / Oceans (Where Feet May Fail)" by Ezra Worship Initiative starts to play. The song starts with a revamp of a 280-year-old hymn "Guide Me O Thou Great Jehovah", and then beautifully transitions to the chorus of Hillsong's "Oceans (Where Feet May Fail)". This medley made my heart do a little cartwheel!  The hymn "Guide Me, O Thou Great Jehovah" (originally "Arglwydd, arwain trwy'r anialwch" in Welsh) by William Williams (a Welsh Methodist preacher) was inspired by the biblical story of the Israelites' exodus from Egypt. Williams wrote this in 1745 as a plea to God for guidance while traveling through life's wilderness. A 280-year-old plea that is still very relevant for us today.  "I am weak, but Thou art mighty // hold me with thy powerful hand," a thought that ...

'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...

"Heartbeat" by Laura Leighe - Dancing in Worship

Here's a song that's more or less been stuck in my head since I heard it. It's called 'Heartbeat' by Laura Leighe and is what Laura calls a "reggaeton-influenced Christian pop duet" that's all about surrendering to God's rhythm and dancing in worship, no matter what life throws your way.  The lyrics remind me of two scriptures: "Praise him with timbrel and dancing, praise him with the strings and pipe."  - Psalm 150:4 (NIV) and "Wearing a linen ephod, David was dancing before the Lord with all his might."  - 2 Samuel 6:14 (NIV). Maybe I'm a bit prejudiced because the song reminds us of our own thoughts when we founded "Christian Dance" years ago and picked a name. Focusing on music that allows us to feel joy and causes us (our hearts) to dance for God, a pure form of worship that we know is pleasing to God. The lyrics are about surrendering our control and trusting in God's plan. Laura sings, "I bet you f...
