Daniel Spriggs - Let There Be Light (CCM)


Daniel Spriggs - Let There Be Light

'Let There Be Light' is a beautiful song written and performed by Daniel Spriggs, an Ohio-based musician. The song was written during a particularly difficult time in his life, where he found himself driving on icy backroads during the end of winter, feeling the effects of seasonal depression. In the midst of the dark and cold, he started singing the song's lyrics.

The song speaks of making way for more of God in our lives, asking for His guidance and light to fill up every space and illuminate our lives. It acknowledges Jesus as the only Name that can make the darkness hide and tell the sun to rise. The lyrics beautifully describe the desire to belong to God and the longing to be reminded of that belonging, especially in the midst of difficult times.

Daniel's vocals in the song are passionate and heartfelt, and the instrumentation perfectly complements the message of the lyrics. It is a song that inspires hope and encourages the listener to turn to God even in the darkest moments.

'Let There Be Light' is a beautiful composition that showcases Daniel Spriggs' talents as a musician and songwriter. It is a song that will resonate with anyone who has ever felt lost or alone, and will undoubtedly leave a lasting impression on those who take the time to listen to it.

"The List Goes On (Jordan's Song)" by Chris Sarver: Finding Freedom in Faith

Have you ever felt the weight of the past (old chains) even after you're free? Chris Sarver's "The List Goes On (Jordan's Song)" addresses this specific struggle. Chris shared the following: "Like many of you, I have been part of text thread groups whose main purpose is for encouragement and prayer. … About four years ago, in one of those men's groups, my friend from church, Jordan Hanks, shared a message you can see in the picture. It was simple. He wrote about how sometimes we feel the old weight we carried before Jesus lifted it. And when that weight tries to creep back in, he reminds himself of the names Jesus has earned in his life. He is a Healer." In other words, when shame whispers lies, we must speak truth louder. The lyrics confess, "The chains are gone, sometimes I still find that I can feel their weight." Instead of hiding this feeling, Chris Sarver turns it into a moment of worship. He calls out names that Jesus has earned in...

"Man I Used To Be" by Dax: Half the Weight, Double the Faith

"Man I Used To Be" by Dax is a very personal song. Dax had promised himself that he wouldn't release new music until he'd stayed sober for six months, the time he needed to get his priorities straight and clear his mind. "Man I Used To Be" is the sound of his first clean breath, life with God by his side. Dax lays it bare: "Trials and tribulations, all my past trauma," he acknowledges, along with "generational curses from daddy and mama," and the "addictions that clouded my eyes." The honesty about his past struggles makes the message of this song so relatable and powerful.  The chorus is about the moment that the script was flipped, "I'm half the man I used to be." Not a broken man, but a man who has been freed from the burdens that weren't his to carry and kept him from God. "I don't ever chase, I got God," declaring that his new identity is anchored in faith. It's a shrug and a testimo...

'Lonely Dirt Road' by Dax: A Journey to Solitude and God

Dax's 'Lonely Dirt Road' is a conversation that Dax has with himself and God. Dax shares his journey of turning mental health walks into healing solitary drives. As you listen, you can almost feel the cruise, where it's just you, your thoughts, and God.  The chorus is so relatable: 'When I need space, that's where I go, a place to escape that nobody knows.' What do you do when life's pressures stack high? Do you also have a space where you can let go? That lonely dirt road that Dax sings about symbolizes solitude, but it is also an incredible opportunity for connecting with God.  Dax's honesty is raw and relatable. 'I didn't want my family to see me cry… dealing with the pressure of trying to provide.' There are times when we all put on a smile to hide how challenging situations may be. Like his father, Dax says that he finds peace on this lonely road, where challenges become opportunities to grow. This shows the core of our faith: that...
