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!

"A Love Song" by Seek and Surrender: The Three-Stranded Covenant

(By Jasper Tan) We always see people say "I love you" to someone, professing their love to that significant other. But we often see how a marriage united by love easily shreds to tatters, and we ask ourselves, "Why?" Where did it all go wrong? How did something joined together by love easily get broken and be accepted as "falling out of love"? But the biggest thought that comes to mind while listening to Seek and Surrender's latest song, "A Love Song," is: do we really understand what it feels like to love? In Seek and Surrender's song, there are countless lines in which the singer professes his love to his bride. It seeks to highlight the sincerity of his love, the magnanimity, the pureness. But in those lines, there's this line that we all should focus on —  "If Christ gave Himself for His bride, Oh, then I'll give myself for mine." Do we know how Christ gave himself for his bride (the Church)? He sacrificed himself w...

John Mayer's Secret to Writing Catchy Song Lyrics

John Mayer's Secret to Writing Catchy Song Lyrics by Kapa Freeman  Why are John Mayer's song lyrics so easy to remember? It comes down to human psychology. I am notoriously bad at remembering song lyrics, except for John Mayer's Songs. Other artists may write a song I remember here or there, but John Mayer does it consistently. Why? I discovered the reason when I was working full-time as a teacher. Teachers can always tell when they're losing students. When those eyes start to glaze over, when that one eyebrow raises in confusion and someone yells out... "I don't get it!"  I got those a lot when I first started teaching. Talking to other teachers, I soon discovered why. I was giving too much information at once. I would vomit these elaborate explanations, thinking that more information would help clear things up... But they just got confused. Talking to my teachers reminded me of lessons I'd learned while getting my teaching degree:  "People remem...

"If Jesus Could (Walk on Water)" by John Fumo & Robert Fumo: A Funky Call to Compassion

Have you ever considered Jesus’s actions as a benchmark for our own compassion? In their funky, soulful new track, John and Robert Fumo do just that. In their song, “If Jesus Could (Walk on Water)”, the brothers Fumo share how easy it is to be compassionate and loving in light of the accomplishments and miracles which Jesus performed. In other words, His incredible acts should make our own acts of kindness feel entirely achievable.  For example, “If Jesus could …walk on water,” the lyrics challenge, “then we can …love one another.” There’s more… If He could feed thousands with a few fish and loaves, surely “it shouldn’t be hard to keep the people fed.”   The song reframes Jesus’s acts into a call to action. Instead of seeing insurmountable problems, we are reminded that if Christ could “rise from the dead, // We could trade hate for love instead.” The song not only triggers a paradigm shift, but it also empowers. At its core, it reminds us of Jesus’s promise that ...
