Crews Wright - Phone in Heaven (CCM)


I had the opportunity to listen to a song that left me in awe. The song is called 'Phone in Heaven'. It is a known song by Bobby Reed, but what makes this rendition special is the fact that is sung by a 15-year-young man named Crews Wright. This young artist's voice is so mature and reminiscent of Randy Travis that he will make your jaw drop! With his ability to give us such an amazing performance at this age, I really am looking forward to hearing how Crews develops over the coming years!

If you don't know the song 'Phone in Heaven', then here is a summary. This song is a heartfelt country ballad written by Bobby Reed that talks about the longing to talk to a loved one who has passed on. The lyrics of the song are incredibly touching and relatable. It starts with the singer talking to Jesus, not to ask for forgiveness for his sins, but to talk to his mother, who he knows is with Him. The chorus talks about wanting one more chance to tell his mother how much he loves her and how much he is thinking of her. He longs to hear her sweet voice one more time and begs for the opportunity to talk to her again. The song's outro ends with a request to Jesus to put his mother on the line if there is a phone in heaven.

Crews Wright - Phone in HeavenI encourage you to take the time and listen to this incredible rendition of the song. The way Crews sings the lyrics with so much emotion and feeling is awe-inspiring. His voice, although young, is well beyond his years, and you can feel the passion he has for this song in every word he sings. The production quality of the song only adds to the overall listening experience. You can hear the instruments blend seamlessly in the background, providing the perfect accompaniment to Crews' voice.

'Phone in Heaven' is a song that will resonate with anyone who has lost a loved one and longs to talk to them one more time. The lyrics are heartfelt, and Crews delivers this with such depth and emotion that it is impossible not to feel moved by the song's message. Whether you are a country music fan or not, this song is worth a listen, and I encourage you to give it a chance. You will be amazed by the talent of this young man and the beauty of this touching country ballad.

"I'm Still Going to Praise You" by Die Taube: Choosing Praise in the Waiting

Can worship survive a season without answers?  Some seasons don’t resolve on schedule. “I’m Still Going to Praise You” by Die Taube ( ‘the dove’ ) was born from one of those seasons — infertility sitting alongside a father’s cancer diagnosis, disappointment stacking on disappointment. The song is part of an upcoming album, Pilgrimage, releasing one song per month until December. The album is a crossing, not a recovery, not getting back to who one was but coming through changed. The opening line of the song sets the whole tone: “Thank You has no seasons, worship does not wait.” God’s worthiness does not depend on our circumstances. Even when circumstances stay unresolved, we decide to look beyond our circumstances to praise and worship Him.  Notice what the second verse admits. “When I feel like I’ve got nothing and other times so much”  — our praises aren’t conditional on constant victory. The song is honest about fluctuating faith, and pairs it with a steady choice underneat...

"There Was Jesus" by Zach Williams and Dolly Parton: Finding Him in the Wreckage

Even in loss, Jesus was already there.  Dolly Parton passed away on August 25, 2026, at age 80, after a brief battle with cancer, surrounded by family in Nashville. For seven decades she sang about faith, poverty, grace, and home — and one of her earlier duets (with Zach Williams) carries a message that fits her passing perfectly. In “There Was Jesus,” Dolly Parton and Zach Williams trade verses about the moments we miss Him most: “Every time I tried to make it on my own // Every time I tried to stand and start to fall.” Life doesn’t wait for permission before it crashes down. “When the life I built came crashing to the ground // When the friends I had were nowhere to be found”  — that’s grief. That’s a hospital room, a phone call you dreaded, a silence where a voice used to be. That’s seeing great people passing away. Where was God in it? “I couldn’t see it then but I can see it now,” the song answers. “There was Jesus.”   Psalm 34:18 says it plainly: “The Lord is near to t...

"Is Anybody There? (Psalm 27)" by Stephen M. Miller: Holding On to Grace at Heaven’s Door

Stephen M. Miller's "Is Anybody There? (Psalm 27)" comes in the quiet aftermath of the Christmas celebrations, when reflection can feel like isolation. Stephen's song isn't about polishing away his mistakes, nor does it encourage you to do so with your mistakes. Stephen shares his painful experience, "I never saw it coming Lord // It felt right but it was wrong // Family and friends have left me // But I still have you and a song."   Stephen owns the fallout of his actions, taking accountability without despair. "I said it and I did it, Lord // Broke more hearts than I'll ever know // I can't fix this, though I've tried // Don't be angry, and please don't go." His song is a prayer for God's presence and guidance. "Hear me when I call you, Lord // Don't turn your face away // Don't give up on me like others have // Come help me through this day." Stephen describes a fear that we too experience when we ...
