The ways of God are mysterious. I was born and grew up in Lithuania. My path to the field of worship music began some decades ago - started as a choir member in a local worship music jazz-style project, and later I played acoustic guitar in the ensemble of this group. Around the same time, my wife and I released a CD of our own songs "Let's Enjoy" (https://renatapoce.bandcamp.com/). A few years later, when asked about further plans, I then replied that I only see the meaning of creativity (if any) in the music of God's praise. I said it spontaneously and didn’t think (because we don’t know, and the Lord knows). And here, some years later, someone in me pushed me to take up the books of the Psalms again and to convey the important messages set out in them in the style of rock music. And then from somewhere, from mysteries unknown to me, one after another, in a relatively short period of time, songs began to be born, and so the word became flesh. This whole Soli Deo Gloria project took about 2 years from the birth of the idea to the release of digital media (am on the way to vinyl publishing). If very briefly, for this project (S.D.G. - Soli Deo Gloria) I brought together local musicians I know to record in the studio and invited other musicians from other countries in the world who kindly responded positively and joined the project, and with the help of the Lord, we did so. And thus, by firmly saying "Yes" to God, we can contribute to the spread of God's word to listeners around the world. I took rock-style music (with which I grew up) as the best suited for this project, so I chose it as a means of expression. I hope that we, as a global team, and I personally, have succeeded. Thank God for that. Currently, S.D.G. project develops further and joined into cooperation with UK singer & songwriter Peter Simon Bailey to produce strong, positive, and faithful messages to the listener!
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....
What would change if today felt brand new? Howard Gripp asked himself that same question on a beach, watching waves erase impressions in the sand, making the beach look as new again. He wasn’t planning to write a song. He was just sitting there, reflecting on his own journey, and recalling the day he realized he could leave his past behind and start fresh. That memory became the key message of this song: “every day is an opportunity for a new beginning.” The lyrics open with Howard standing “out on the ocean’s edge,” the breeze in his head, the waves making “everything so clear.” Clarity like that doesn’t usually come from noise. It comes from stillness. “See your past, like footprints in the sand // Slowly fade as the tide rolls in.” Footprints don’t argue with the tide; they can’t, they’re powerless. They just vanish, one wave at a time. Psalm 103:12 says the same thing, only louder, and puts it this way: “as far as the east is from the west, so far does he remov...
What if surrender opened the door to change? Some songs ask nothing of you. “Let It Rise — Live” asks everything. Hope Worship wrote this song as a simple invitation that is meant to feel welcoming rather than complicated: ask the Holy Spirit to have His way in you. No hidden agenda, no complex theology lesson. Just an open door for the Holy Spirit. Hope Worship repeats a line that sounds a bit risky: “Break my heart open.” Why would anyone ask for that? Because a closed heart can’t hold much of anything new. The song builds from that vulnerable request into a rising cry: “Let it rise like incense.” Picture the smoke curling upward, unhurried, unstoppable. That’s what surrendered worship looks like. Keep that picture of incense in mind as you read Psalm 141:2, “Let my prayer be counted as incense before you, and the lifting up of my hands as the evening sacrifice.” David was offering something real, something costly, and trusting that God would receive it. Your daily...
