Olly Kiff - Worthy (Acoustic) (CCM)


Olly Kiff's 'Worthy (Acoustic)' is a song about the here and now. The lyrics are inspired by Revelation 5, where every single angel in heaven is singing praises to God. Olly took this idea and applied it to his own life, writing about how he wants to praise God right now—and he knows that even when he gets to heaven, his heart will still be singing His praises.

It's a song that I believe everyone can relate to, because we all know what it feels like to get caught up in our everyday lives and forget to worship God. Maybe that's why I like this song—it reminds us that we should be praising Him no matter where we are or what we're doing, because He is worthy of it!

Olly Kiff - Worthy - AcousticThe first verse starts off with an image of all the angels around His throne forever singing, praising, and worshipping Him. This sets us up for the chorus: 'Worthy is the Lamb that was slain; worthy is the Name above all names.' He's referring to Jesus Christ, who died for our sins on the cross and rose again so that we might live. It's impossible not to feel like our lives are full of meaning when we realize how much He sacrificed for us.

After the chorus comes another verse, a verse that describes how we are not worthy of such praise, but that God still loves us anyway. Grace in its purest form. That's why this song resonates with me, this song reminds me of how great God is and how much He loves me, regardless of all of my faults.

I hope you enjoy listening to this song as much as I do!

"Clothed With Dignity" by Grace Frances: Trading Shame for a New Identity

Your worth was never up for negotiation.  Grace Frances wrote “Clothed With Dignity” from a place most of us recognize (in some form or other) but will rarely admit out loud. She carried old regrets like a second skin, calling herself names that her past mistakes didn’t deserve. “I demonize the girl I was, when she was just trying to survive,” she sings, and that line hurts. Haven’t we all judged ourselves for choices that we made while simply trying to get through the day? Even choices that seemed to be fine in the moment, but proved to be otherwise over time.  Grace’s breakthrough didn't come from fixing herself, but from surrendering… surrendering to God. “You clothe me with dignity,” she declares, describing a moment where self-condemnation lost its grip and grace took over.  Grace’s story is fairly similar to the story found in Isaiah 61:10 —  “I will greatly rejoice in the Lord; my soul shall exult in my God, for he has clothed me with the garments of salvation; h...

"Just Believe" by For Him: When Doubt Isn't Disqualifying

Can you believe without having all the answers? Some people wait at the edge of faith for years, arms crossed, waiting to feel ready. “Just Believe” was written by For Him for exactly that person — the one who wants to trust Jesus but still carries a list of questions. The song grew out of that in-between space, where doubt and faith sit side-by-side and neither one of them wins outright. Gritty Southern-rock guitars carry lyrics that ask a two-thousand-year-old question: “Could Love have worn a human face?” The answer to that question brings purpose and comfort to our lives. The song doesn’t demand certainty before you move. It invites wonder instead. “You don’t have to shape your future // He begins where you can’t reach.” The message and intent of this song make it clear that you don’t need to figure out everything first before you can take a step toward God.  A man quoted in the gospel of Mark understood this tension better than most of us. Desperate for his son to be healed,...

"I've Got Joy" by Tyler Philip Ratcliffe: Why Joy Isn't the Same as Happiness

Sorrow and joy can share the same room. “I’ve Got Joy” by Tyler Philip Ratcliffe was triggered by a telephone call. Tyler reconnected with an old friend who’d been going through a period of loneliness. Tyler shares: “We talked at length about the season of loneliness he was experiencing, and we discussed a few other topics that are reflected in the verses.” This triggered Tyler to tackle this concept of having Joy, and it became clear that “I’ve Got Joy” isn’t the same as “I’ve Got Happiness” . Joy is more than happiness, and it certainly isn’t a painted-on smile. Tyler makes that distinction on purpose, because he’s writing about the nights he spent “down to my last prayer,” and about sitting “in a room full of people” while feeling completely invisible. He’s writing about all of the kneeling and “begging for the answer to a question I can’t speak.” That’s real, and that’s most of us, on our worst weeks. The chorus takes us back to “joy”. Tyler sings: “I’ve got joy in my lungs, ye...
