Elias Dummer - How Many Songs Does It Take To Save the World? (CCM)

Elias Dummer - How Many Songs Does It Take To Save the World?
On Friday, June 24, Elias Dummer shared new music with this track titled 'How Many Songs Does It Take To Save the World?'. We are happy to be able to share the lyrics with you. The official audio can be heard below.

Ever catch yourself asking: "Where is God? How can this happen if He is in control?" But did you ever think about how you pray or sing? Is your prayer or praise the kind that has no power behind it? A prayer that doesn't reach higher than the ceiling, or is just one of those things you think you should do as a Christian?
What place does Christ really have in your life? Do you consider it a sacrifice when you go to church, and do you then sit there looking at the clock, anxiously waiting for the last 'amen' to ring?

All God asks is that we be faithful and include Him in our lives... not just when we face difficulties, have doubts, or during that hour or two on Sunday. He desires the entire package. Elias Dummer sings about how God is with you and that His song is more than strong enough to rescue. Ask yourself, is the song that you are singing in harmony with His song, and can it be heard throughout every part of your life? 


LYRICS

If I sing a new song
It had better be one worth singing
Not just for a quick buck
God knows that these verses don’t bring it
You cried for justice while I hummed a tune
You call the righteous now I’m asking You
Tell me, how many songs does it take to save the world?

If I sing a new song
It had better be one I’m living
Not just Sunday morning
A cup of coffee, high notes, and giving
You want us faithful
We bargain for power
You want the whole thing
I offered an hour
Tell me, how many songs does it take to save the world?

‘Cause if there’s one song
Well I’ll die to sing it
Don’t care bout hit songs
Preached to the choir
Wake up, you giant!
Quit lullabying
Tell me, how many songs does it take to save the world?

If I sing a new song
It had better ring out with justice
Not just for its own sake
With tired lines and old borrowed phrases
When yours is kingdom, don’t need market share?
You’d kick over tables In our house of prayer
Tell me, how many songs does it take to save the world?

‘Cause if there’s one song
Im gonna sing it
Don’t care bout hit songs
Preach to the choir
Wake up, you giant!
Quit lullabying
Tell me, how many songs does it take to save the world?

(One) God is with you and His song is
(Love) More than strong enough to rescue
(Come) he’s delighted so be silent
And you’ll hear that he’s been singing

"Run There" by Hayden Snook: When Life Overwhelms, Here's Where to Go

What do you do when life feels like too much? When the noise, the pressure, and the emotional weight won't let up? Hayden Snook found his answer — and he wrote it into "Run There."  Born out of a moment of genuine overwhelm, this folk rock track doesn't pretend everything is fine. Instead, Snook leans into the tension. "I may stray, I may move — all those feelings held within me are nothing to Your victory." Our struggles are real, but so is the God who meets us in it.  The lyrics recall some of Scripture's most powerful moments, like David crying out in anguish, the stone rolling away, men standing firm in the face of death. These moments are proof and they give each of us hope that we can build on today. If God showed up then, He'll show up now.  "Run There" is an invitation to trust God. "You may stray, you may move — there's nothing our God can't do." So don't walk… Run to Him! Give "Run There" a listen...

"Heal Me O Lord" by Sandra Lam: Restored by His Wounds

(by Jasper Tan) "Heal Me O Lord" by Sandra Lamb is a powerful, soul-stirring gospel song that touches on themes of faith, surrender, and finding healing in God. The song serves as a heartfelt prayer where Sandra expresses her vulnerability and her moments of weakness and loneliness, and her strong faith to find healing in God in order for her to be restored. Throughout the song, we are taken from a place of struggle to a testimony of Sandra's victory as she declares, "I'm strong and whole again" and "All my pain is gone." This affirms her faith through the healing that she received in Jesus. You can clearly hear the honesty of Sandra as she sings this song with her expressive vocals, which is keenly supported by the music that creates a meditative and uplifting atmosphere. This delivery largely helps us establish an intimate and worshipful tone when listening to the song. It helps us relate to the song more and reflect on our faith and how we are...

"Vine" by Oludee: Fruitfulness Through Surrender

(by Jasper Tan) "Vine" by Oludee is a very beautiful, soulful song that talks about trust, surrender, and putting our Faith in God. What makes this song so beautiful is the musical choice that Oludee chose to produce with the given theme. It's easy listening and soulful, which can be a good song to listen to during our moments of devotion and personal worship with God. The opening lines of the song quickly establish the message that we can't just rely on ourselves in our day-to-day living, but it is important that we learn to recognize God in our lives. By putting our complete trust and faith in Him, we would be able to navigate life's challenges more easily, as we would be experiencing more stability. To know and understand that God is with us, we would not succumb to our hopelessness because we understand that God will always carry us during our times of need. Using Vine as a metaphor, it serves as a symbol of life, nourishment, and protection. This recurring re...
