'Praises Go Up' by Christa Rooks: A Spiritual Journey through Melody

Christa Rooks' heart was touched by an indescribable whisper of a song during a moving solo car ride. A verse and chorus that blossomed into 'Praises Go Up' was born in her heart, saved as a voice memo, and patiently waiting for the right time to resurface.

Christa connects our intimate human experiences and everyday troubles to our heavenly connection with God in the song's raw simplicity. As the lyrics unfold, it's clear that this song was inspired by Christa's quiet moments of praise to God in the middle of her personal storms. You could also hear echoes of your praises, gratitude, and longings in this song as well.

The song beautifully captures the life-changing power of faith and the comfort of God's presence. 'Yes, Lord,' repeated, becomes more than just a string of words; it becomes an affirming prayer, a statement of faith that acknowledges and embraces God's joy.

Let go of whatever is keeping you from connecting with God. Allow the uplifting current of 'Praises Go Up' to catch your spirit. You might find yourself saying 'Yes, Lord,' filled with the same joy that filled the room where it all came together. Whatever your path, remember that when we lift our voices in praise, His joy fills our void.
