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.

"Time in Your Presence" by Austin J. Smith: Why Wasting Time With God Is Never a Waste

Could “wasting time” be the greatest worship? Austin J. Smith wrote “Time in Your Presence” around a simple but countercultural idea: “love doesn’t calculate” . We live in a world that is obsessed with output — checklists, side-hustles, proving what we are worth through who we're seen with and what we accomplish. So what happens when you bring that same mindset into your relationship with God? Austin sums up the answer in a single, defiant line: “I’ll waste my time in Your presence.” Not because sitting with God earns us anything. “Earning” isn’t required by God.  The lyrics elaborate on that tension. “The world just might think I’m foolish,” Austin sings, “to waste my whole life on you.” ‘Foolish’ by whose measure and which definition? Our culture rewards busyness and prestige, but it’s not capable of measuring the benefit of a quiet moment with your Creator. Austin calls God his “morning star” and “golden hour”  — the beautiful moments of the day that don’t need justification...

"Not Far From Us" by Divine Vibes: Stop Searching. Start Reaching.

The search can end right now. The Apostle Paul stood in Athens surrounded by altars and idols — a city full of people reaching toward something they couldn’t name. Among all their shrines, Paul spotted one inscription: “To an unknown God.” That moment became the opening of one of the most powerful declarations in Scripture. The people were already searching. They just didn’t know who they were searching for. “Not Far From Us” is a collaboration between Divine Vibes and House of Purpose. The track takes that same scene and sets it to Afro House and cinematic electronic music. Created directly from Acts 17, the lyrics move like Paul’s speech itself — from observation to revelation. “I found an altar to an unknown God // This God whom you worship without knowing // This is the one I’m telling you about.” Divine Vibes doesn’t just retell the story… he pulls you right into it. What Paul told the Athenians next also applies to each of us today: “Yet he is actually not far from each one of ...

"Great Lord" by Sarah Emerson: When Mountains Teach You to Worship

Can mountains make you want to worship? Sarah Emerson wrote “Great Lord” while on a trip up in Leavenworth, Washington, surrounded by beautiful mountains. She was craving a song that she could shout from the rooftops about how great God is! That’s where this song was born — not in a studio, but looking up to something that is too big to ignore. The lyrics open with an acknowledgement: “Great is the name of the Lord, powerful is His hand.” No qualifiers. No hedging. Just stating a fact. Then the song widens its lens. “Let every mountain, every valley, speak of all Your majesty.” Suddenly it’s not just Sarah praising His majesty — it’s all of creation praising Him, “You are Great, Lord.” Reflect for a moment on your own life. Where do you feel small? Where do circumstances seem too tangled to fix? The song addresses that tension, “Nothing’s impossible, You’re making all things new… Is there anything You can’t do?” In Isaiah 55:12 we read, “the mountains and the hills before you shall b...
