Cody Wright - Liberated (CCM)

Cody Wright - Liberated
Cody Wright has released a Christian Contemporary Music (CCM) track called 'Liberated'. 

Cody shares: "This song means a lot to me. It is my debut single as a recent high school graduate. The inspiration came from an annual school trip to the mountains called 'Winter mount Seminar' where my school takes an entire week off of coursework and goes to the mountain to worship, pray, learn, and just go deeper into community. The most recent trip there I was going into it in a not very good place and a lot of things burdening me down, but up there I found this liberation that was so freeing in every conceivable way. Through this liberation I experience an even deeper connection with my closest friends, and I let go of things like anxiety and worry, which I feel like a lot of people need that right now. This song is meant to inspire anyone listening to accept the invitation handed to them by Jesus to understand the same liberation that I understand. I can't live without the liberation I have now and I want any listeners to feel like they can have it too. I'll be dancing and shouting the name of Jesus for many days to come." 



Lyrics:

Theres an atmosphere of praise
Surrounding all the room
A place where I found grace
An awestruck love and faith
A place to call home
A heavenly call to wake
To pick up my cross
To shout out in praise

I've been liberated
Redeemed and called enough
I've been celebrated
Surrounded by your love
I've been captivated
So Jesus take me
Where ever you lead I'll follow I'll go there
Cause you set me free, and you are my savior

A spiritual blessing
That shakes me to my core
God your kingdom reigns
Stirring my soul
Healing my pain
So I'll shout to the mountains

I've been liberated
Redeemed and called enough
I've been celebrated
Surrounded by your love
I've been captivated
So Jesus take me
Where ever you lead I'll follow I'll go there
Cause you set me free, and you are my savior

I was broken alone
With no one to follow
At the feet of your throne
I found my tomorrow
So I'll shout to the heavens
You're wonderful name
Our God has a love so strong that
You're covered in grace
I'm no longer alone
Cause you took my sorrow
At the feet of your throne
I found my tomorrow
So I'll shout to the heavens
You're wonderful name
Our God has a love so strong that
You're covered in grace

I've been liberated
Redeemed and called enough
I've been celebrated
Surrounded by your love
I've been captivated
So Jesus take me
Where ever you lead I'll follow I'll go there
Cause you set me free, and you are my savior

"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...
