Long Hollow Worship - The Wonder (CCM)


As a Christian music lover, I am always on the lookout for songs that will truly resonate with my soul. And I have to say, Long Hollow Worship's 'The Wonder' is definitely one of those songs.

The lyrics of 'The Wonder' speak of the amazing love and sacrifice of Jesus Christ, who was fully God and fully man. He left His throne in heaven to rescue us, and His victory over death means that we too can have victory over death.

The song begins with the lyrics 'Beyond what I can understand, Fully God and fully man.' These words immediately capture the awe and wonder of the incarnation, the fact that the infinite God took on finite human flesh to save us.

The chorus of 'The Wonder' repeats the phrase 'Oh, the wonder of it all' three times, emphasizing the sheer magnitude of what Christ did for us. The bridge continues this theme, proclaiming that 'It's the wonder of Your glory, Of how much You love us, It's the wonder of Your goodness and Your kindness.'

Long Hollow Worship - The WonderBut the song doesn't just focus on the abstract wonder of God's love. It also acknowledges our own sinfulness and the fact that we are the ones in need of rescue. The lyrics of the second verse declare that 'If You would leave the ninety-nine, And I'm the one You came to find,' highlighting the fact that Christ's sacrifice was not just a general act of love, but a specific act of love for each and every one of us.

The final verse of the song celebrates the victory of Christ over sin and death, proclaiming that 'Hope was lost until day three, When You arose in victory, oh, You have shattered sin's decree, The death of death is life for me.' These words are a reminder that the resurrection of Christ is not just a nice story, but a historical reality that changes everything.

I encourage you to listen to 'The Wonder' by Long Hollow Worship and let its message of awe and wonder sink deep into your heart. Let it remind you of the incredible love of Jesus Christ, who left His throne in heaven to rescue you and me. I pray that this song will inspire you to live a life of wonder and gratitude, always remembering the incredible price that was paid for our redemption.

"Sunlight (Storge)" by Chelsea Chaisson: Reminisce the Simpler Times

(by Jasper Tan) Feel good, light-hearted, easy listening track. That's how I find Chelsea Chaisson's new single called "Sunlight (Storge)." I was kind of curious what the word "Storge" means, so I had to look it up. According to Wikipedia, "Storge is a Greek word that refers to natural, familial affection or love, particularly the bond between parents and children, as well as among family members and close friends. It is characterized by familiarity, dependence, and loyalty, often rooted in kinship bonds and shared experiences." Sounds very familiar? Of course, it should be, because as per the description, it actually describes what Christian love is. Or should I say how God loves us as His children? Chelsea was inspired to write this song by reminiscing about her childhood, marked by simpler times spent with her cousins and their grandma.  Countless times, we always heard the saying that we all should have faith like a child. The reason for that i...

"Temptation" by Dax: Fighting Spiritual Warfare Through Faith and Prayer

Have you ever felt like the battle against temptation is relentless? In his powerful track "Temptation," Dax reminds us that every moment of resistance is a victory. He doesn't shy away from the reality that "temptations outside, knocking at my door." Instead of hiding the struggle, he exposes it. He admits that while he "won the battle last night," the war continues. In other words, spiritual discipline is a daily choice. Dax explains that temptation finds safety in an "idle mind" and when we lack purpose. But most of all, he offers a strategy for triumph: "starve my flesh, then feed my spirit with faith." So, why trade your peace of mind for fleeting pleasure? The lyrics trace our struggles back to the garden and "Adam and Eve," and also point us toward redemption.  "Down by the Riverbend // in the garden, where the snake tempted Adam and Eve, // they ate the fruit and from those seeds // grew the roots of this ...

"Jesus Is His Name" by Aaron Goodhew: The Name That Changes Everything

“Jesus Is His Name” by Aaron Goodhew is a song written as a Christ-centred declaration of who God is and what He has done. The song begins by asking, “Who designed creation and called it into being?” and quickly answers by pointing our eyes “high above the heavens” and leading us to the very place “where he rests his feet.” In other words, this is worship from creation to restoration. Each verse walks through different parts of Christ’s work: parting waters, calming storms, healing lepers, restoring outcasts, setting captives free. The chorus invites the church to confess together: "He is the Lord God // Lifted up // Mighty to be praised // Sovereign King of kings // Name above all names." But most of all, He is the personal Savior “The one who paid our ransom // The one who saved a wretch like me.” The bridge crowns this declaration, calling Jesus “wonderful counsellor, mighty king and friend,” the Lion and the Lamb whose glory we cannot fully comprehend. A declaration...
