'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.

(Related scripture: John 1:1-2; Romans 8:15; Colossians 1:17)

'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...

"Compass (Phileo)" by Chelsea Chaisson: Navigating Life with Faith and Friends

"Compass (Phileo)" by Chelsea Chaisson explores one of the Greek words for love. This song focuses on "phileo" (friendship) and its vital role in life's storms. "Phileo" translates to love that is characterized by affection, fondness, and friendship. It's a warm, tender, and affectionate bond, often seen between friends, siblings, or within a community. It's more about the natural affection we have for those who are close to us.  Chelsea wrote this song when she returned home after living in Cambodia for two years. Faith brought her to Cambodia, sustained her there, and guided her back, but the journey left her feeling like "a little boat" lost in raging seas. At times we may feel like, "I'm drowning, drowning treading water in the wind // I'm drowning, drowning I could use a friend." It's a cry for connection, a reminder that we all need someone to anchor us when fear starts to take over. The fears and lies tha...

"Turn to You" by Mike Cunningham: A Veterinarian's Worship Journey

Mike Cunningham is a veterinarian from Ohio. He traded his country tunes for worship music after discovering God's call on his life. In this debut single, "Turn to You," Cunningham explores what it means to seek God in a world that is so clouded by chaos and lies. He boldly asks the question, "In a world so torn with darkness, can a miracle set us free?" Looking at the chaos and mess around us, a situation that makes life feel quite overwhelming for many, it's His miracle that truly gives us hope. Cunningham reminds us that Jesus isn't just a distant figure that once walked on water and healed the blind, He is there for you and walks by your side. He is ready to guide you (if you let Him), even through your darkest nights. When everything is shaking beneath your feet, He is the one that you can lean on. "You are the way, the truth, and the light," bringing the clarity that we desperately need in our lives today.  May this song turn your gaze ...
