Century Worship - O Holy Night (Christmas)



Century Worship - O Holy Night
Century Worship has released a Christian Christmas (CCM) track called 'O Holy Night'.

The world's hope was born through the agony of childbirth. This was the inspiration for Century Worship's Christmas EP, 'Born to Save.' Dustin recalls sitting in the writing room with Daniel, Payton, and Denise, discussing a Christmas series that their church was planning for 2021. It hit them all like a lightning bolt... the stark reality that one of the first curses that entered the world was pain during childbirth, and that, in full circle form, the hope of the world would be born through the pain of Jesus' mother, Mary. The agony of childbirth was one of the first consequences of sin, and yet, years later, through that same agony, Century knew they had to write a song along those lines... to bring the true meaning of Christmas back to the forefront. Jesus was born to save us wretches.

Century Worship, a regional worship band, ushers in the holiday season with a beautiful marriage of old melody, fresh musical creativity, and stunning visuals for the classic Christmas hymn, O Holy Night, on the same EP.

O Holy Night is a traditional Christmas carol that has been sung and re-arranged by a variety of artists. The trick for Century Worship was to write the song in the modern worship style that their audience is accustomed to while remaining true to the song's melodic beauty. Strings, ambient guitars, and solid drum grooves update the classic while keeping it worshipful and true to its original form.

Century Worship recorded the song in the band's hometown of ABG Studios, with masterful producer Seth Henderson, and shot the music video with Real Video in historic downtown Crown Point, IN, where the band is based.

"Dancing In Your Light" by Ora Street Mission Band: Shining Through Everyday Acts

Ora Street Mission Band put their finger on something important with "Dancing In Your Light." It's the fact that (as Christians) we don't generate our own light, we reflect God's light. It's like the moon reflecting the sun at night. As Christians, we are called to be lights to the world! The vibe of the song draws from a rich musical palette, inspired by The Police, Weather Report, and Toto, giving the song a contemporary groove that matches the song's present-day message. The song encourages you to come into action. So, what does it look like to live as a bearer of His light? The lyrics try to compare this with a firefly lit from within, and a lighthouse holding firm before a raging sea. Each comparison points to the same truth… His light is given to be shared with others. "If he has illuminated you, then fly and be free!" Jesus declared, "I am the light of the world." This song turns that fact into a call to action. Shine, move, and...

"What's That I Hear? (Murrell Ewing Cover)" by The Fosters: When Gospel Comes Home

What if one song could make you feel the pull of heaven so strongly that your heart wishes: "Please don't wake me // For soon the eastern sky will part and I'll see His face." That's exactly what The Fosters deliver with their reimagining of Murrell & Joan Ewing's 1978 classic, "What's That I Hear?" Originally a staple of Rev. Murrell Ewing's ministry and later recorded by various southern gospel legends, this song has been brought home, straight back to its Pentecostal roots. Andrew, Devi, and their three children breathe new life into it, layering family harmony over a real brass section that powers a Sunday morning revival. The longing that is at the heart of this song is unmistakable: "This old world has lost its charm; it's no place for me." It touches a feeling that many believers know quite well, a sense of restlessness and longing for something larger than what this earthly life has to offer. The song reminds us th...

"Living Proof" by Island Tribe Collective: When His People Unite, Mountains Move

(by Jasper Tan) "Living Proof" by Island Tribe Collective (featuring Sherwin Gardner, Marc Isaacs, and Alicia Taylor) is a live recording of a powerful, high-energy worship anthem that embodies what the collective calls "Caribbean Worship." The group invites us into a celebration of faith, utilizing the culture from the Caribbean islands and how they express it as a living proof of God's goodness. The song talks about our faith and the new beginnings that are promised to us after we overcome our struggles and hardships. Their repeated proclamation of "Lord, I'm living proof" aims to drive down the message that each one of us is already a living proof of God's faithfulness love, and mercy. We all have our own unique faith experiences and stories that could somehow inspire the people around us. So for those of us who have been know for our strong faith, being able to overcome our struggles and testify about it, brings a more concrete testimony an...
