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

"Your Love" by Kevin Winebarger - When Mercy Becomes Your Identity

Kevin Winebarger teamed up with Joshua Frerichs and Benji Cowart to create this beautiful song. "Your Love" tackles that discouraging voice we all hear from time to time, the one that whispers that we're not enough and that we are defined by our past. "Once a liar, always a liar," and all kinds of variations along this same line of thought. This song isn't about wallowing in shame. "Your Love" is a celebration of the grace that changes everything.  The opening lines hit hard: "I could believe that I'm not enough // It's clear to see I don't measure up." Yep, we've all been there! But this isn't how God want us to be defined… He loved us first! "It's just what You've done // Because of Your love." That's the heart of everything.  Kevin places the change the God brings into perspective, "I could believe that my mistakes // Will follow me down into the grave // But I'm not who I was....

"How Good You Are" by ECTaylor: His Goodness Shines in Our Darkest Places

ECTaylor wrote "How Good You Are" one early morning while sitting outside alone, watching the sunrise and listening to the peaceful sounds of the woods. After more than a share of life's challenges, ECTaylor felt something almost sacred as the first light of day broke through the trees. He speaks about a "deep, whispered reminder of God's goodness that shines even in our darkest places." The lyrics immediately set the tone, "When morning breaks with golden light, Your mercy lifts me from the night," a tone of hope. It's amazing how simple wonders of nature, like the sparrow's singing and the flowing of a river, can remind us of God and His constant presence. ECTaylor shares, "I thought about Paul, worshiping God from a prison cell. I finally began to understand just a bit of how he could praise and be thankful in the midst of pain—because when you truly see who God is, gratitude rises above circumstance." Sometimes we are trappe...

'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...
