Christian McKinney - Closer To You (CEDM)

Christian McKinney - Closer To You
Christian McKinney has released a Christian EDM (CEDM) track called 'Closer To You'.

Christian  shares: "I wrote this song to explore who our Creator is. It started with what it means to know God on a personal level. Thus, “Closer to You” aims to seek and grow a relationship with God. The goal was to go on this journey to find God, even in the midst of the storm, and grow closer to Him no matter what we are going through and to trust Him."

Lyrics:

Creator of the universe
Lord you take my breath away
From my mother’s womb you’ve chosen me
I will forever live my life for you

Where you lead me, I will follow
Where you send me, I will trust in you
Your plans are greater, your love is higher
You will forever be right next to me

You know my heart
You are my strength
I want to know you more
God, I want to be closer to you

I open my heart to you
Lord, you filled me with your love
In you I find your all I need
I will forever give my life to you

Where you lead me, I will follow
Where you send me, I will trust in you
Your plans are greater, your love is higher
You will forever be right next to me

You know my heart
You are my strength
I want to know you more
God, I want to be closer to you

I want to be closer to you
God, I want to be closer to you

I want to know you more
I want to be in your presence
I want to be your hands and feet
I want to be closer to you
I want to know you more
I want to be in your presence
I want to be your hands and feet
God, I want to be…

I want to be closer to you
God, I want to be closer to you

You know my heart
You are my strength
I want to know you more
God, I want to be closer to you

I want to be closer to you
God, I want to be closer to you

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.

"Oceans (Hillsong Cover)" by Tiffany Ford - Stepping into the Unknown with Faith

Life can at times feel like a stormy sea! Do you recognize that feeling? Tiffany Ford does, and Oceans by Hillsong is one of her 'go-to' songs for those rough times in life. She released a beautiful cover of Oceans, and shared how faith became her anchor when her life seemed so overwhelming. "Seemed" is the key word here, because in her moments of doubt and fear she discovered that God was meeting her exactly where she stood — by her side as she stood on shaky ground or in deep waters.  Oceans is a favorite for many readers, a song that describes the tension we feel between trust and uncertainty: "You call me out upon the waters / The great unknown where feet may fail." It's a beautiful invitation to step out of your comfort zone, even when it feels quite risky. With this cover, Tiffany is reminding us (and herself) that He is there when we get of our comfort zone. We can count on Him being there to guide us —  "Your sovereign hand will be my guide...
