'Always Been You' by Jonathan Bacarella - Charting a Course Through Life’s Stormy Seas


Jonathan Bacarella's heartfelt melody 'Always Been You' originates from the intimate passage of Psalm 139:2. This deeply moving anthem is inspired by a traumatic experience in his life around the birth of his son Milo. In the middle of an emotional raging storm of fear and uncertainty, Bacarella found comfort in the reassuring realization that, in good and bad times, God's tender hand guides us on our life's journey.

Jonathan Bacarella - Always Been You'Always Been You' is a testament to God's infinite power - He who perceives our thoughts from afar, the One who is our rock, our sword, and our shield. The song is a gentle reminder that when we are downcast or uplifted, in calm waters or stormy seas, at the beginning or end of our lives, we have never been left alone... he was by our side.

Bacarella plants a seed of hope, to find peace in God's solemn gaze and transformative love. The lyrics 'Come take me closer, deeper into your arms of grace' ring true, inviting listeners to dive into the ocean of God's merciful grace.

Begin your journey with 'Always Been You'. Allow the soul-stirring lyrics to carry you through the ups and downs of life and faith, ultimately anchoring you in God's unwavering presence.

(Related scripture: Psalm 139:2; Psalm 18:2; Hebrews 4:16)

"Holy (In The Valley)" by Caleb Andrew: Finding His Greatness in the Valley

What if worship wasn't just for mountaintop moments? Caleb Andrew's debut single, "Holy (In The Valley)," addresses this very question. Caleb shared that this song has been in the making for 10 years. What started as a chorus and bridge written during an intense encounter with God's presence has since grown into an anthem for his life.  God's holiness doesn't fade when our life grows heavy! In other words, our God not only meets us in triumph, He also walks with us through uncertainty. The lyrics declare, "You are holy // In the valley // You are holy," turning our gaze from circumstance to Him, our Lord. When Caleb sings, "There in my weakness // You see greatness," he captures the heart of persevering faith. This song empowers you to choose to worship Him, even before a breakthrough. The lyrics have become Caleb's daily reminder: "will you let trials silence your song, or will you sing anyway?" The bridge commands cour...

"Dancing On Water" by Mary Oz: When grief has no power over Hope

(by Jasper Tan) I have always been a huge admirer of Mary Oz's music. Since the moment I discovered her songs, without fail, I've always made it a point to add them to my playlists. If there was one CCM artist from the Philippines who deserves to be heard on a global scale, then my vote belongs to Mary.  Her latest single, "Dancing On Water" (which is a part of her forthcoming album), is a pure acoustic folk/rock song that talks about breakthroughs from grief. As Mary shares, "Grief can swallow you whole, but it's not a life sentence. The morning will come, and with it, Joy." This is a very empowering statement that seeks to inspire her listeners to take courage, rejoice, leave the sadness behind, and just conquer their fears.  What I love about Mary's songwriting is her deep metaphorical lyricism that makes her songs stand out among the clutter of songs in this age of digital music. You'll definitely know that her songs are very well thought of...

“We Worship You I AM”, Doyin Teru – Worship in Spirit and Truth

"We Worship You I AM" by Doyin Teru is a relatively simple song with a massive vision and message behind it. The song was born in a moment of prayer. In Bolaji Teru's own words: "Few minutes into the prayers, I knelt down on my knees with the consciousness that God is present and must be revered. In a moment, tears began to flow from my eyes as I heard the song in my spirit as if it's being sung by thousands of others. So I joined them to sing the song and right after, took my phone, recorded the song and gradually began to develop and produced it." In other words, this isn't just another worship track; it's an invitation to join in with a heavenly chorus.  The song repeats a few core phrases: "We worship Your Majesty," "We worship Your Royalty," and the declaration, "We worship You, I AM." Instead of crowding the song with many words, it leans on the weight of God's revealed name  —  "I AM," the Etern...
