'Dominion' by Ted Slaughter: An Echoing Chorus of Divine Worship


Ted Slaughter's 'Dominion' is more than just a song. It's a lovely echo of spontaneous worship that goes beyond earthly boundaries and brings us closer to God's heart. 'Dominion' evolved spontaneously from a single resounding line in a stirring moment of praise five years ago into a powerful declaration of God's glory, honor, and dominion.

Ted Slaughter - DominionThe lyrics, 'Take what's Yours, You deserve the highest praise,' affirm our joyful surrender to the Almighty. It echoes our ongoing transformation, forever marked and altered by the splendor of His glory. The majestic reality of God's presence is beautifully unfolded as hearts bow low and hands lift high, creating a spiritual panorama that reflects the essence of true worship.

The spiritual pulse of the song is 'All Glory, All Honor, All Dominion, and Praise, unto You, the highest praise,' which intensifies our adoration of God, who is rightly deserving of our deepest exaltations. This is followed by the moving bridge, 'Worthy is the Lamb who was slain for me,' a tender recognition of Jesus Christ's loving sacrifice that forever redeems us.

When you listen to 'Dominion,' you can't help but feel surrounded by God's tangible presence. You become a part of the song's heartwarming narrative as you surrender to its melodious flow—a worshipful offering of praise to God who rules with glory and power. Ted Slaughter's prayer for this song to be used as a resource by many churches should inspire every listener to include the song in their personal devotion and congregational worship. Give it a listen and allow the 'Dominion' to renew your adoration for our mighty God.

"Guide Me (O, Thou Great Jehovah) / Oceans (Where Feet May Fail)" by Ezra Worship Initiative – Ancient Wisdom, Fresh Waves

I'm sitting in traffic, Spotify on shuffle, listening to my collection of new releases. That's when the song "Guide Me (O, Thou Great Jehovah) / Oceans (Where Feet May Fail)" by Ezra Worship Initiative starts to play. The song starts with a revamp of a 280-year-old hymn "Guide Me O Thou Great Jehovah", and then beautifully transitions to the chorus of Hillsong's "Oceans (Where Feet May Fail)". This medley made my heart do a little cartwheel!  The hymn "Guide Me, O Thou Great Jehovah" (originally "Arglwydd, arwain trwy'r anialwch" in Welsh) by William Williams (a Welsh Methodist preacher) was inspired by the biblical story of the Israelites' exodus from Egypt. Williams wrote this in 1745 as a plea to God for guidance while traveling through life's wilderness. A 280-year-old plea that is still very relevant for us today.  "I am weak, but Thou art mighty // hold me with thy powerful hand," a thought that ...

'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...

"Heartbeat" by Laura Leighe - Dancing in Worship

Here's a song that's more or less been stuck in my head since I heard it. It's called 'Heartbeat' by Laura Leighe and is what Laura calls a "reggaeton-influenced Christian pop duet" that's all about surrendering to God's rhythm and dancing in worship, no matter what life throws your way.  The lyrics remind me of two scriptures: "Praise him with timbrel and dancing, praise him with the strings and pipe."  - Psalm 150:4 (NIV) and "Wearing a linen ephod, David was dancing before the Lord with all his might."  - 2 Samuel 6:14 (NIV). Maybe I'm a bit prejudiced because the song reminds us of our own thoughts when we founded "Christian Dance" years ago and picked a name. Focusing on music that allows us to feel joy and causes us (our hearts) to dance for God, a pure form of worship that we know is pleasing to God. The lyrics are about surrendering our control and trusting in God's plan. Laura sings, "I bet you f...
