'You Are (Live)' by Rivers Crossing Worship: A Song of Identity, Truth, and Unfettered Love


There is a path to faith that often mirrors our daily struggles—an uphill battle, a torrent of doubts, a complete roadblock. However, we find breakthroughs through patience and persistence, similar to the story behind Rivers Crossing Worship's uplifting song, 'You Are.' Born from a songwriting impasse, it found its purpose and phrasing six months later, expressing the eternal story of Jesus in timeless melodies. It grew from doubt to become a definitive anthem of faith, proving that divinely inspired patience often yields life-changing revelations.

Rivers Crossing Worship - You Are (Live)Here is a song that resonates with the promise of God's invincible love while affirming Jesus' identity and forever connecting it to ours. During life's storms, we are reminded that we are who Jesus says we are. Unconditionally loved. Forever forgiven. God's children.

The song, like the beginning of time when darkness yielded to God's command, kindles the light of revelation within us. It echoes with the powerful reminder that our Savior, who appeared to have been 'lifted up and left for dead upon a cross,' rose from the grave, leaving sin and stone behind. So, no matter how far we have fallen into despair, we can find comfort in this reassurance.

Allow the deeply moving lyrics of 'You Are' to enter into your heartbeat, breathing new life into your faith journey. This song, adorned with heavenly messages and melodies, strengthens the bridge between earthly trials and heavenly faith, providing comfort, hope, and a reminder of God's incomprehensible divine love for us.

"Your Love" by Kevin Winebarger - When Mercy Becomes Your Identity

Kevin Winebarger teamed up with Joshua Frerichs and Benji Cowart to create this beautiful song. "Your Love" tackles that discouraging voice we all hear from time to time, the one that whispers that we're not enough and that we are defined by our past. "Once a liar, always a liar," and all kinds of variations along this same line of thought. This song isn't about wallowing in shame. "Your Love" is a celebration of the grace that changes everything.  The opening lines hit hard: "I could believe that I'm not enough // It's clear to see I don't measure up." Yep, we've all been there! But this isn't how God want us to be defined… He loved us first! "It's just what You've done // Because of Your love." That's the heart of everything.  Kevin places the change the God brings into perspective, "I could believe that my mistakes // Will follow me down into the grave // But I'm not who I was....

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...
