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

'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...

"Wanna Be Like You" by One Common: Letting Go of People-Pleasing for Good

"Wanna Be Like You" by One Common is an interesting song that was born out of this duo's struggles with wanting to please people and the pressure they felt to perform. The song reminds us to stop chasing others for their approval and start chasing Jesus instead. "I'm so done tryna be someone else just to keep people's attention," they sing. It can be very exhausting to constantly pretend and perform. The song reminds us to keep our hearts and lives centered on Jesus—the only one who truly is worthy of being our role model. Not for applause. Not for attention. But because His way is the only one that brings real peace and fulfillment in our lives.  The need to please others and perform is probably a feeling that many of us know all too well — but it doesn't have to define us.  The lyrics of the song put the issue right there on the table: "Who am I tryna be, who am I tryna please? That's the question." And the answer? Ofcourse, Jesus i...

"the cost (given for us)" by HOMECOMING: Feeling the Weight of Grace

HOMECOMING's "the cost (given for us)" looks at the weight of what Jesus gave up to save humanity. The backstory that HOMECOMING wrote this song after talking about how easy it is to say "Jesus died for me" without really thinking about what that means. Like, what did it actually cost Him? Their approach wasn't to create another "thank You" song, but a song that invites us to slow down and truly feel the sacrifice He made. His sacrifice wasn't just a painful moment on a cross. It was everything. He gave up heaven. He was rejected, betrayed, beaten… and He still chose the cross for us. That kind of love doesn't make sense. But it's real. The lyrics give words to the awe we feel: "You took my place // How can it be // By your grace I'm saved." And lines like "Your blood washed me clean" and "By your stripes I'm healed" remind us of the freedom and healing that He paid for. Then comes the part that ...
