Ryan Leigh - PSALM 139 (CCM)



Ryan Leigh - PSALM 139
Ryan Leigh has released a Christian Contemporary Music (CCM) track called 'PSALM 139'.

Ryan is a singer-songwriter & worship leader based in Atlanta, GA. She grew up singing in baptist churches while listening to Lauryn Hill, Jonathan McReynolds, Beyonce, Fred Hammond, Mariah, & Whitney amongst others.

Thousands of years ago David and other psalmists wrote these beautiful songs for the Lord. Psalm 139 is one of Ryan's favorite psalms. She's always wondered what they sounded like .... this song is where her imagination has taken her.

Psalm 139 talks of  God's omnipresence and personal understanding of us, which gives us an outsized feeling of hope and comfort in the face of hardship and trial. From birth to death, He sees us, cares for us, and promises to always be there for us. Ryan invites us to consider what it must mean to live with the understanding that God is present in all places and at all times.

Ryan shares: 'My goal is to compel people to learn, know, and trust the Lord. I joined Tik Tok in July 2022, and the Holy Spirit asked me to sing the psalms. I had been meditating on Psalm 139 for weeks before, so when I sat with my guitar, it took me no more than an hour to produce the psalm and upload a video that later went viral. While I never meant for this song to actually be one that was released, I know it is very intentional that people have been introduced to my music in this way. I am SO looking forward to sharing more.'

Ryan is currently working on her debut project with such music influences.

"Jesus Is His Name" by Aaron Goodhew: The Name That Changes Everything

“Jesus Is His Name” by Aaron Goodhew is a song written as a Christ-centred declaration of who God is and what He has done. The song begins by asking, “Who designed creation and called it into being?” and quickly answers by pointing our eyes “high above the heavens” and leading us to the very place “where he rests his feet.” In other words, this is worship from creation to restoration. Each verse walks through different parts of Christ’s work: parting waters, calming storms, healing lepers, restoring outcasts, setting captives free. The chorus invites the church to confess together: "He is the Lord God // Lifted up // Mighty to be praised // Sovereign King of kings // Name above all names." But most of all, He is the personal Savior “The one who paid our ransom // The one who saved a wretch like me.” The bridge crowns this declaration, calling Jesus “wonderful counsellor, mighty king and friend,” the Lion and the Lamb whose glory we cannot fully comprehend. A declaration...

"Heaven Country" by Jensen & Company: Where Faith Meets Fiddles

Jensen & Company's 'Heaven Country' features Heidi Jensen North. It's a song that bursts with an infectious Texas swing energy, with steel guitars, fiddles, and washboard rhythms that pull you into the vibe. Beneath this melodic energy is a message with a promise: heaven isn't just a destination, it's a homeland where every tear is wiped away!  Can you imagine streets where lions walk with lambs, hunger vanishes, and divisions dissolve into unity? What a contrast compared with today's world! One of the lines that stands out: "There's no divide - there's just one side // The Son is shining every day."  What if we were to start living today as citizens of that eternal country? What's stopping us? The song challenges us: "All the love that you've acquired here - it's your money // Be sure to fill your account." It's a call to invest in what truly lasts. You've never seen its glory, never heard its songs - but...

'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...
