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

"Is Anybody There? (Psalm 27)" by Stephen M. Miller: Holding On to Grace at Heaven’s Door

Stephen M. Miller's "Is Anybody There? (Psalm 27)" comes in the quiet aftermath of the Christmas celebrations, when reflection can feel like isolation. Stephen's song isn't about polishing away his mistakes, nor does it encourage you to do so with your mistakes. Stephen shares his painful experience, "I never saw it coming Lord // It felt right but it was wrong // Family and friends have left me // But I still have you and a song."   Stephen owns the fallout of his actions, taking accountability without despair. "I said it and I did it, Lord // Broke more hearts than I'll ever know // I can't fix this, though I've tried // Don't be angry, and please don't go." His song is a prayer for God's presence and guidance. "Hear me when I call you, Lord // Don't turn your face away // Don't give up on me like others have // Come help me through this day." Stephen describes a fear that we too experience when we ...

'Miracle Child' by Brandon Lake: A Symphony of Redemption and New Life

In the comforting embrace of Brandon Lake's song, 'Miracle Child,' we are invited to explore the tender mercies of God, to perceive ourselves not as mere beings surviving the odds but as divine miracles in motion. This contemporary Christian music (CCM) masterpiece assures listeners of the stunning grace of God, reminding us that the same power that conquered the grave resides within us.

His soulful rendition paints an animated narrative, celebrating life's delivery from the brink through divine intervention. Death, he boldly challenges, hasn't claimed its victory over his life because 'My savior's word is final / I am resurrected / Blood protected / I am a miracle child.' These words echo with the astounding reassurance of Christ's resurrection and our security in ...

"Nothing Can Separate Us" by Divine Vibes: A Melodic House Drop Inspired By Romans 8

What if the one thing you've been searching for was by your side all the time? That's the question that Divine Vibes answers in his latest track "Nothing Can Separate Us." This track is a dance-pop and melodic-house collaboration with the Mexican artist Bervmen. The lyrics are based on Romans 8:38–39, and this production turns the scripture passage into a powerful and danceable anthem. Like always, the message of Divine Vibes is beautifully direct. Neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither present nor future can separate us from the love of God. You'll hear how the lyrics build on the previous line and dismantle every fear that could make you believe that God's love has limits. It doesn't, it can't, and this song makes that perfectly clear. What makes this track stand out is how Divine Vibes and Bervman deliver their message. You'll hear soaring vocals in a melodic house production that celebrates the joy found in the promises of R...
