Cody Carnes - Bless God - Live (CCM)


'Bless God - Live' by Cody Carnes is a soul-stirring Contemporary Christian Music (CCM) song that draws inspiration from Psalm 34:1. Co-written by Cody Carnes, Brooke Ligertwood, and Brandon Lake, the song is part of Carnes' forthcoming album, 'Firm Foundation.'

The song reflects on the timeless truth that God is worthy of praise in every season of life, whether in times of joy or hardship. Carnes emphasizes the importance of praising the Lord even during challenging circumstances, drawing parallels to King David's Psalms where he commanded his soul to bless God.

Cody Carnes - Bless God - LiveCarnes beautifully captures the redemptive history of God's love for humanity, from the creation of man in His perfect image to the new beginning after the flood with the symbol of the dove finding rest on Christ, the perfect Son who would redeem the world.

The lyrics also acknowledge the pivotal role of the Holy Spirit as the Helper, Healer, and Living Water in the life of believers. The song's bridge serves as a prayer, inviting the Holy Spirit to come and rest upon the Christ within, acknowledging that God's gift of the Holy Spirit was fully purchased through the crucifixion of the Lamb.

'Bless God - Live' is a heartfelt anthem of praise and surrender, urging us to seek more of the Holy Spirit's presence in our lives and to find comfort and strength in God's unwavering love and faithfulness.

(Related scripture: Psalm 34:1, John 14:16, Acts 2:2-4)

"Boxes" by John Long: Breaking Free from Religious Boxes

(by Jasper Tan) John Long’s “Boxes,” written with Dustin Smith, is both a reflection and criticism of how we oftentimes allow ourselves to be limited (“boxed”) with our faith. Using the “box” as the core metaphor of the song, it represents our self-imposed (or community-imposed) limitations with religious traditions that prevents genuine a genuine relationship with God. John emphasizes that these limitations often run into conflict with the original intentions of God, to have a free flowing holy communion with God. The song is characterized by our sense of longing and our desire to re-approach our Faith with clean hands and a pure heart. From the opening lines itself, we are challenged to evaluate the current status of our faith and come to realize that it may never really what we intend it to be. Our intention from the start was born from a desire to start a deep and Holy Communion with God, and as the bridge and chorus approaches, the song has a more personal and prayerful tone. We a...

"He's My Rock" by Jamar Esaw & Triad 4 Christ: Finding Shelter in the Storm

(by Jasper Tan) “He’s My Rock” by Jamar Esaw & Triad4Christ featuring Koriann Lewis-Freeman is a powerful contemporary Gospel track that delivers a blend of traditional worship and modern soul. It reminds me of some of the songs by the band DC Talk, which was the definitive sound of modern Christian Contemporary Music when it exploded in the music scene back in the 90’s. This contemporary Gospel track brings forth an energetic sound that updates the way we sing our praise and worship sessions in our Churches. The song brings in a raw modern energy that breaks tradition while also encouraging worship sessions to be more in tune with the times, which brings a lot of youthful energy. The song is powered by Jamar Esaw’s smooth, commanding vocals and Koriann Lewis-Freeman’s additional vocal range. Bringing in an electric chemistry rooted in the authenticity of emotions as they sang the lyrics of the song. This is clearly felt during the song’s build-up to its climactic moments. With a r...

"GREATER THAN THE GRAVE 2026 - Remaster" by Josh Clay: Overcoming Walls and Giants

Have you ever felt like your heart’s gone cold, walls built high like Jericho’s? That’s where Josh Clay’s journey began with his song “Greater Than The Grave”, a song first released in 2022. It was the first song he ever released as an artist, and it’s also the first song that made him say … “yeah, this is my sound!” Years have passed since this song was born, and Josh Clay still sings it with conviction, giving him a good reason to release a remastered version.  Josh shares that this song came after watching a Beatles documentary, where they were explaining that they had 14 days to write 14 songs. He decided right there and then to adopt the same challenge. On the second day of this challenge, while practicing for church, Josh just started singing: “no mountain that may come my way,” and then mumbled something about a grave. In the next 30 minutes, he had the basis for “Greater than the grave”. Josh recalls that this is the song that gave him wings to fly, and without it, t...
