Matt Pelt - Standing In The Ashes (CCM)


There's nothing quite like the power of Jesus to change a person's life. The song 'Standing in the Ashes' by Matt Pelt beautifully captures this experience, describing how Jesus' love, grace, and sacrifice can take us from where we were to the person we were meant to be. Matt wrote this song a while ago (prior to August 2020), and has now officially released it... and we're excited about this release.

Matt Pelt - Standing In The AshesThe lyrics speak of a melody written on the heart, a revelation of who Jesus is, and walls being torn down. It speaks of the love of Jesus as the river in the desert and the perfect shelter in the midst of life's storms. It talks about how Jesus' blood had a mission to bring redemption and change the world through the power of His sacrifice.

Matt sings about a new day turning, revival burning, and hearing Jesus' voice sing that He is still overcoming. The chorus is one that stays in my head long after the song has finished, where Matt sings about letting the fire of Jesus bring revival, purifying and burning down all of our failures, leaving behind ashes of who you used to be.

The message of the song is clear, Jesus' transformative power is real, and it can change us from the inside out. It doesn't matter how far we've fallen, or how deep we've sunk, the love and grace of Jesus can always reach us and raise us up, out of the ashes, to become the person that He meant us to be.

"I Will Rejoice" by Maria Segerholm: Thankful for the Sunshine and the Rain

Joy is a choice you can make today. “I Will Rejoice” by Maria Segerholm is a song of joy and praise, and her message is that joy is a choice despite the challenges we face. Maria has been called a happy person since she was a little girl. The unexpected happened, the trials came. Seasons arrived when her joy faded, and she says the enemy worked hard to steal her joy. Does that sound familiar? Those seasons didn’t last. Over the past few years, God has taught Maria what it means to rejoice in Him at all times, and this song, “I Will Rejoice”, grew from that lesson. Listen to how she sings it. Clouds try to block her light, yet she won’t stay down. Pain tries to break her praise, so she sings His Name. Fear shakes her soul, and she gives thanks “cause I know You’re good.” Notice the words that Maria uses: Clouds, pain, fear, and noise… They all “try,” but none of them win. Joy here is a choice that she makes again and again, long before her feelings catch up. The bridge pushes further....

"King Of All Nations" by Ezra Worship Initiative: Sing Today What Heaven Will Sing Forever

Your worship today echoes eternity. Ezra Worship Initiative trains young worship leaders through a ten-week, seminary-based internship. Their songwriters learn Scripture first and melody second. You can hear this in their latest release, “King Of All Nations,” a song written for congregations to sing. The song opens as a prayer: “May Your Name be proclaimed in all creation.” Who does the proclaiming? The Church does. The second verse asks God to “send Your Church to go and tell the gospel story,” which puts all who sing this right inside the request. Who on your street has never heard His name from you? Then the chorus lifts the roof: “All the honor, voices lifted to the King.” Worship here is not a performance. It is sung as a community, young and old, a multigenerational voice of praise. The bridge looks ahead. “All will come, and all will bow.” John saw the same moment: “a great multitude that no one could number, from every nation, from all tribes and peoples and languages, stan...

"Man of Sorrows" by Lauren Gruwell: Jesus Feels Your Pain With You

Jesus knows your pain before you speak it. Lauren Gruwell knows what it is when Jesus feels unreachable. Trauma in her childhood left her with deep sorrow, and for years Jesus seemed too far away. She didn’t think she was good enough to come near Him. Are you also familiar with that feeling? Do you sit in the dark, tears falling, and wonder: “… no one knows but if they did, would they care?” Lauren shares: “It wasn’t until He changed me, that I realized that HE has felt all the pain I’ve ever felt, and that He loves me regardless.” The Savior that she thought she couldn’t approach had already walked her road. This song, “Man of Sorrows”, grew from that discovery, and it carries a promise for anyone who hurts: “And all of my hurt, He felt it first…” . Jesus hurts right beside you. In Isaiah 53:3, we read that He was “a man of sorrows and acquainted with grief.” Then comes the line that changes everything: “Surely he has borne our griefs and carried our sorrows.” Our griefs. Our sorrow...
