Canyons - Oh, How I Trust You (Album) (CCM)



Canyons - Distant

Canyons have released a Christian Contemporary Music (CCM) album called 'Oh, How I trust You'.

'Distant' and 'River' are two characteristic songs from the album. An album filled with prayers and moments that many will be able to relate to... Moments and situations when we think that we may not deserve Him by our side, and then realize that He is always there.

'Distant' is an attempt to recall the confusion between overwhelming grief and the precious comforts that meet us in the midst of it. Knowing, as if it were a punch in the chest, that He is always there and you really can not miss it. Knowing that you don't need to ask because He is not far away. He is there by your side when you cry out, sing to the sky, and bring on the drama.

What greater comfort can He give us than knowing that all we have to do is lift our eyes to Him and pray? Have total faith in Him and know that He is a magnificent God! No matter how hopeless or desperate your situation appears, it pales in comparison to His power!


'River' is a song about peace, the kind of peace that can be compared to a river that is always flowing... and there will be plenty more to come... waiting to be yours to immerse yourself in. There is a rescue for the wayward, the wounded, and the weary soul. He is reviving us even as we are breaking. Our Healer is Jesus.

'River' was initially written for two of John and Trisha's friends who needed to know that, and ultimately 'River' became a reminder for their own soul...

We enjoy the songs on this album and believe there are more people that can use these beautiful musical reminders to help heal and tune their soul as well. He is an awesome God, deserving of your trust, and no matter how messed up things may seem... He is there for you.

A message from John and Trisha:

"We’ve written these songs for our local community, and from our personal journeys with Jesus. Some were created as a way for our church to sing and remember as we studied different parts of the Bible. Others were written from some of our best conversations, our worst moments, and a need to make music to process. Our crazy-talented musician friends joined us as we shifted these specific prayers and memories into collaborative celebration and grief. While we didn’t write with a theme in mind, the struggle, choice, and potential joy to trust in Jesus emerged as a through-line of the album.
We hope you love it." - John and Trisha

"I'm Yours (Radio Edit)" by Avery Stafford: Soaring Faith Like an Eagle

What does it mean to truly surrender? Avery Stafford answers that question with conviction in "I'm Yours (Radio Edit)", a song that's finally getting its own moment in the spotlight. "I'm Yours" was originally released as part of the End of Five album back in 2012. This fan-favorite track blends Avery's characteristic gospel soul vibe with contemporary inspiration in a manner that feels both timeless and personal. It's the kind of song that doesn't just sound good, it continues to touch hearts and encourage our surrender to Him, our Savior. The key message in this song is a simple message of complete devotion to God. From the opening lines, Avery sets the tone: "I give You praise in unexpected ways, from my heart and my soul." This isn't polished religion. It's raw, everyday faith. The kind that shows up at the break of dawn and in the quiet moments in between. "I'm Yours" is a song about letting go of fear an...

"Joy of the Lord (444 Hz)" by Andy & Julie Frame: Eternal Reign and Righteous Love

What does it mean to truly experience joy — not the fleeting kind, but the kind that sustains you? Andy & Julie Frame answer that question beautifully in Joy of the Lord (444 Hz), a song that begins as an intimate Indie pop meditation and builds into full congregational worship. The song opens with a declaration: “The Lord our God shall reign forever.” Simple, powerful, and true. Our God is Truth, a righteous Judge, merciful, and full of love. If our God isn’t worth celebrating, then I don’t know what is! Ask yourself… What does His reign mean for you? Andy and Julie Frame sing: “He’s the God of Love” and “He gives sight so the blind can see // He sets all of the captives free.” And don’t forget, He has given us life! These aren’t just poetic lines! These are just a few of the many promises He has made to you and me! The chorus describes our response: “Praise to our God who’s given us life, the Joy of the Lord and His beautiful light,” and the bridge of the song declares: “Jesu...

"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...
