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!

"Your Love" by Kevin Winebarger - When Mercy Becomes Your Identity

Kevin Winebarger teamed up with Joshua Frerichs and Benji Cowart to create this beautiful song. "Your Love" tackles that discouraging voice we all hear from time to time, the one that whispers that we're not enough and that we are defined by our past. "Once a liar, always a liar," and all kinds of variations along this same line of thought. This song isn't about wallowing in shame. "Your Love" is a celebration of the grace that changes everything.  The opening lines hit hard: "I could believe that I'm not enough // It's clear to see I don't measure up." Yep, we've all been there! But this isn't how God want us to be defined… He loved us first! "It's just what You've done // Because of Your love." That's the heart of everything.  Kevin places the change the God brings into perspective, "I could believe that my mistakes // Will follow me down into the grave // But I'm not who I was....

"Thankful" by Lowen: The Practice of Being Thankful

Lowen's "Thankful" isn't one of those typical feel-good gratitude songs. Life is good most of the time… and even when it hurts, there's often something quietly waiting inside the pain, like a lesson, a softening, or a deeper understanding. Lowen found inspiration for this song in what Stephen Colbert once said, "… he learned to love the thing he most wished had never happened, and that simply being here is a gift. Gratitude means holding all of it, not just the easy parts."   The lyrics open with a warm anchor: "Every day that I wake, I just feel so thankful." We're encouraged not to flinch from the messy middle. This is not about ignoring life's quakes! Lowen admits, "honesty is telling me I need space" when the world feels unsteady. In other words, the gratitude that Lowen sings about isn't about forcing a smile through pain — it's about meeting every moment (including the hard moments) with presence, care, and res...

"He Must Increase" by Rorie: Humbling ourselves in God’s presence

Inspired by the verses John 3:30, Philippians 3:7–8, and John 10:27, Rorie releases "He Must Increase", a beautiful song that reminds us of the sound of CCM from the 2000s, easily the era when the rise of CCM was at its peak. Rorie sings the song with earnestness as she opens the lines "The seasons change and we are aging, But You alone are God of the ages." You'll immediately know that this song is putting God front and center. There's a certain aspect of the song that clearly wants to remind us that God will always be bigger than us. That his glory and mercy will always shine through, and we are mere travelers in the world that he built. Everything emanates from him, and we cannot claim to be bigger than God.  It's a humbling reminder that what we have, what we attained, it all comes as a blessing that He has gifted to us. We cannot claim that it is our works that brought us the joys and triumphs. These gifts and accomplishments are nothing without Hi...
