Mission House, Jess Ray, Taylor Leonhardt - Behold - Live (CCM)

Mission House, Jess Ray, Taylor Leonhardt - Behold - Live
Mission House, Jess Ray, Taylor Leonhardt has released a Christian Contemporary Music (CCM) track called Behold - Live.

Taylor Leonhardt of Mission House wrote 'Behold' a few years ago, inspired by the apostle John's dream in Revelation 21:5, “Behold, I am making all things new.” She began to imagine what this reality would be like. Poets, storytellers, artists, and songwriters have long explored suffering, and when Mission House began playing the song, people approached them with stories of loss, abuse, grief, and addiction. These heartbreaking stories, however, also spoke of healing, hope, and resurrection. Mission House hopes that 'Behold' will inspire us to believe a little more in the resurrection, not just in the distant future, but right now.

Lyrics:

The empty filled, the wounded heal
The broken back together
The poor are blessed, the weary rest
We will dance forever

The blinded see, the chained are free
The doubtful now believer
The outcast known, the orphan home
You are my Redeemer

Behold, behold, behold
What love can do
Behold, behold
He’s making all things new

The lost return, the voiceless heard
The mourner now rejoicing
The mountains shake, the world awake
Creation all composing

The sad untrue, the earth renewed
The song has found its singer
The darkness lie, the dead alive
You are my Redeemer

Behold, behold, behold
What love can do
Behold, behold
He’s making all things new

We’ve been struck down
We’re not destroyed
We’ve sown in tears
We’ll reap in joy

We’ve been struck down
We’re not destroyed
We’ve sown in tears
We’ll reap in joy

My eyes are open

Behold, behold

Behold, behold, behold
What love can do
Behold, behold
He’s making all things new

Behold, behold, behold
What love can do
Behold, behold
He’s making all things new
He’s making all things new
He’s making all things new

"Lead Me To The Cross" by Tiffany Ford: Surrendering All at the Cross

Tiffany Ford's rendition of "Lead Me To The Cross" is a tribute to the original song that was released approximately 10 years ago, around the same time that Tiffany started attending church with her family. The song beautifully reflects her own journey of learning about Jesus, especially His style of teaching … not by telling people what they needed to do, but by loving, healing, serving, and through His sacrifice.  One of Tiffany's favorite lines is "Rid me of myself," a contrast to the worldly focus of more is more, and shifting focus to faith, where we have all that we need, and embrace true freedom in Him. Tiffany emphasizes the message she found behind this line: "Lay your worries, your hang ups, lay everything down at the cross and follow me. Jesus died a death he didn't deserve so that we could live freely and this song serves as a good reminder for me."   It all comes together in the lines: "Savior I come // Quiet my soul, remembe...
