Maria Segerholm - Chosen (CCM)

Maria Segerholm - Chosen
Maria Segerholm has released a Christian Contemporary Music (CCM) track called 'Chosen'.

"I was asked by my pastor if I could write a song for church’s theme for 2022", Maria shares. "It was about a month left before the theme would be presented for church and it was at a time where I was very busy. I must admit I was skeptical that I would find the time for it. One evening I walked past my piano and I just felt that I should go back and just sit down for a little bit and see if I had any inspiration. The song was born in an instant! God blessed the little time I had. We can see many stories in the Bible where God blessed whatever the person had to offer. I’m so grateful that God can use us even when we limit ourselves. We might think we don’t have time or believe we’re not good enough or qualified. The good news is… God can use ANYONE! He has chosen each and every one of us. And He will support every step of the way towards the calling. This song is a testimony of that. God is the author & I’m humbled to be the pen."

Lyrics:

Verse 1:
Here I am O Lord
You created me
Loved from the very start
Chosen by You          
Here I am O Lord
You created me
Loved from the very start
Chosen by You          

Chorus:
You have chosen me
And You strengthen me
When you’re sending me
I wanna go where You lead
You are calling me
You’re preparing me
And You’ve promised me
That You’re with me all my days
 
Verse 2:
I’m longing for You God
Let Your will be done
I wanna go Your way
Trusting in You          
 
Chorus:
You have chosen me
And You strengthen me
When you’re sending me
I wanna go where You lead
You are calling me
You’re preparing me
And You’ve promised me
That You’re with me all my days
 
Bridge:
Even if I’m scared and I’m doubting
I choose to put my trust in Your name
Cause Your perfect love casts out all my worries
Thank you Lord for giving me rest

Chorus:
You have chosen me
And You strengthen me
When you’re sending me
I wanna go where You lead
You are calling me
You’re preparing me
And You’ve promised me
That You’re with me all my days
 You have chosen me
And You strengthen me
When you’re sending me
I wanna go where You lead
You are calling me
You’re preparing me
And You’ve promised me
That You’re with me all my days
 
Chosen by 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...

"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 ...

"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...
