Unspoken - Hard Times (CCM)

Unspoken - Hard Times
Unspoken has released a Christian Contemporary Music (CCM) track called Hard Times.

“Writing for this record, we sat down and asked, ‘What do we need to hear ourselves?’” Mattson says. “Sometimes you write songs just based on what sounds good, but we talked ourselves away from doing that. This song is really about transparency, just letting people in to what we were going through.”

But before they could even think about producing this song, they had to endure.


LYRICS:

Sometimes in life the road we’re on is not the one we choose
Hits home when we find ourselves in someone else’s shoes
We sing a song of victory then we sing the blues
But through the highs and lows
No we ain’t losing hope

There’s gonna be hard times
Gonna be long nights
Gonna be days when we’re praying Just to make it through
But when it goes all wrong
We gotta just hold on
The promise that you gave us
Your love will not forsake us
In these hard times

Nothing lasts forever no no
Seasons always change
Change is for the better when your love becomes our strength
You make beauty from the ashes
You cover us in grace
So when darkness tries to knock us down
We’ll lift you up in praise

There’s gonna be hard times
Gonna be long nights
Gonna be days when we’re praying Just to make it through
But when it goes all wrong
We gotta just hold on
The promise that you gave us
Your love will not forsake us
In these hard times

I’m gonna praise you
I’m gonna praise you
I’m gonna praise you in the hard times
I’m gonna praise you
I’m gonna praise you
I’m gonna praise you in the hard times
Your love will lift me
Your love will lift me
Your love will lift, lift me, lift me

Whatever may come whatever we face
We’ll never lose hope never lose faith
Ain’t nothing gonna steal our praise
‘Cause you’ve been faithful all our days
Whatever may come whatever we face
We’ll never lose hope never lose faith
Holding on to the promise that you gave us
Your love will not forsake us in these hard times

"When I Saw The Light" by Tyler Philip Ratcliffe: Folk, Grace, and the Moment Everything Changes

“When I Saw The Light” captures something painfully familiar — the trap that routine can bring. Tyler Philip Ratcliffe wrote this folk anthem as a follow-up to “This Little Light of Mine,” drawing on his bluegrass roots and the spirit of Bill Monroe’s classic to tell a story many will recognize in themselves. The verses don’t sugarcoat it. “Same faces, same mistakes, same places // Promise that I change it all tomorrow”  — the trap we need to be aware of… The routine masquerading as life. But Ratcliffe doesn’t leave the listener there. The chorus lifts everything: “I traded fake for something honest // Finally doing something right.” That’s the turning point! What makes this song land is its honesty about the moment before a breakthrough. When numbness sets in, when you’ve exhausted every other option — that’s when the light (His light) breaks through. Ratcliffe captures the surprise of grace: “I wasn’t looking for religion // Wasn’t searching for the truth.” Nobody ever is. And ye...

"Living Proof" by Island Tribe Collective: When His People Unite, Mountains Move

(by Jasper Tan) "Living Proof" by Island Tribe Collective (featuring Sherwin Gardner, Marc Isaacs, and Alicia Taylor) is a live recording of a powerful, high-energy worship anthem that embodies what the collective calls "Caribbean Worship." The group invites us into a celebration of faith, utilizing the culture from the Caribbean islands and how they express it as a living proof of God's goodness. The song talks about our faith and the new beginnings that are promised to us after we overcome our struggles and hardships. Their repeated proclamation of "Lord, I'm living proof" aims to drive down the message that each one of us is already a living proof of God's faithfulness love, and mercy. We all have our own unique faith experiences and stories that could somehow inspire the people around us. So for those of us who have been know for our strong faith, being able to overcome our struggles and testify about it, brings a more concrete testimony an...

"GOD ALL BY YOURSELF (Prayer Anthem)" by J423 Community: Praising God's Name Above All Names

(by Jasper Tan) J423 Community's joyful praise and worship gospel track "God All By Yourself (Prayer Anthem)" is a refreshing gospel track that you can clearly feel the joyful celebration of praising God with all your heart. The song's theme speaks about God's sovereignty and being the one true God worthy of our praise and worship. The lyrics emphasize God's dominion over Earth, and He stands alone as the one and only Being that wields so much power over us. And because of this, we are encouraged to sing Him praises and acknowledge His presence in our lives.  By listening to the song, it is very clear that the J423 Community was joyful and full of gratitude as they sang the song. Because this is more than just any song, this doubles as a prayer anthem and invitation for us to join them in their joyful celebration of God's faithfulness and sovereignty over us. Even when it is clear in our hearts that God is the one true king, being able to express it and si...
