'Rest' by Hannah B. Johnson: Nurture your Soul, Find His Peace


Moments of respite are much sought-after in the rush of our daily lives, perhaps none more so than in the heart of a believer yearning for God's peace. This is the poignant story behind Hannah B. Johnson's beautiful song 'Rest.' 'Rest' became Hannah's prayer, born from an overwhelmed heart seeking tranquility in an increasingly noisy world—a prayer she now shares with us, two years later and after uprooting her life to move closer to her family in Nashville.

Hannah B. Johnson - Rest'Make it quiet in here,' the song's heartfelt lyrics say. 'Calm my raging fears. Help me hear Your voice above the endless noise.'— 'Rest' speaks to tired souls navigating life's noisy turmoil. It leads us to divine solace—God's reassuring presence, which, in His vastness, blankets us in silent calm, quells our fears, and quiets the clamor.

Hannah presents 'Rest' as a sanctifying hymn, a soothing antidote to life's hardships, with the humble invitation to dwell in God's holy presence, to trust and believe in Him with every fiber of our being. It captures our deepest longing, highlighting the transformative power of faith, the comfort of divine presence, and the hope that springs from our relationship with Him.

We wholeheartedly encourage everyone to immerse themselves in the profound simplicity and divine truth of 'Rest'. Allow it to nourish your soul, guide you to peace, and draw you closer to His never-failing divine presence.

"Jesus I Do" by John Perkins: Surrendering to Saving Grace

(by Jasper Tan) John Perkins' latest release, "Jesus I Do," is a soulful and heartfelt Christian Contemporary song that offers a very personal testimony of John finding his way back to God while navigating a turbulent time in his life. You could feel Perkins' emotions poured into this song, knowing that he had been struggling emotionally before he found inspiration to write this song. The song's arrangement opens with a contemplative mood, driven by acoustic piano, and builds into a more layered sound. As the song progresses, soulful elements are incorporated, which are further enhanced by the emotive background harmonies that serve as the foundation of the song.  The lyrics of the song make use of metaphors on a maritime journey that mirrors one's spiritual awakening. How being alone on the ocean, drifting directionless until finding a profound sense of being saved, that one can only experience in the solace of God. The chorus is a simple yet very powerful de...

"Come Alive" by JONATHYN: Grace Restoring the Broken

(by Jasper Tan) "Come Alive" by JONATHYN is an uplifting CCM-Pop track that talks about spiritual renewal, grace, and finding purpose through our Christian faith. The song dwells on the classic darkness-to-light narrative, which is a common theme for those who are struggling with their Faith. The song begins by describing our state of being in a spiritual exhaustion, mirroring that feeling like we are breathing lead. It also speaks about our life that at times feels like it is dead, despite being alive in this world. This happens when we keep on making the wrong turn, and these frequent mistakes become our frustration. And in a twist of irony, sometimes we are being led to deeper depression, especially if we are clutching for hope, yet this is devoid of a firm foundation. And the chorus is where we are reminded that it is only through God and his gift of hope, which gives us new life and makes us feel much more alive. This is the emotional peak of the song, where the song tra...
