'We Need You' by Charity Abbott: Heartfelt Yearning for Divine Intervention


When the world seems to be darkening and your peace and faith seem to be weak, listen to the rhythm of Charity Abbott's song, 'We Need You.' The lyrics express an honest longing for God's powerful presence and energizing hope.

Charity Abbott - We Need YouCharity has been leading worship since she was 13, and as she says 'is madly in love with Jesus'. Her passion and prayer is that her music and life serve as compasses, pointing firmly to our Savior. Her song, 'We Need You,' shows this divine passion. As you listen, you'll hear a heart revealed, raw and authentic, fervently praising the silent strength of faith, the comfort of God's unwavering presence, and the robust, life-changing hope that comes only from a genuine relationship with Jesus Christ.

Her lyrics, repeated like a heart song, plead, 'We need You, Lord Jesus...give us strength and peace, show us the way.' They capture our earthly challenges and the exhausted hope of many believers living in a world that is getting more complicated. However complicated the world may seem, the refrain conveys an unwavering faith and surrender to Jesus' guidance.

This song is more than just singing; it's a journey through worship. It's a mirror that reflects us in the light of God's pure love and inspires us to answer with genuine faith. It is a call to arms for believers, urging us to kneel and seek His throne. Take a moment to appreciate the lyrical blessing of 'We Need You.' Experience the musical subtleties as it connects with your faith, echoing God's timeless promise: He will never leave or forsake you.

"Guide Me (O, Thou Great Jehovah) / Oceans (Where Feet May Fail)" by Ezra Worship Initiative – Ancient Wisdom, Fresh Waves

I'm sitting in traffic, Spotify on shuffle, listening to my collection of new releases. That's when the song "Guide Me (O, Thou Great Jehovah) / Oceans (Where Feet May Fail)" by Ezra Worship Initiative starts to play. The song starts with a revamp of a 280-year-old hymn "Guide Me O Thou Great Jehovah", and then beautifully transitions to the chorus of Hillsong's "Oceans (Where Feet May Fail)". This medley made my heart do a little cartwheel!  The hymn "Guide Me, O Thou Great Jehovah" (originally "Arglwydd, arwain trwy'r anialwch" in Welsh) by William Williams (a Welsh Methodist preacher) was inspired by the biblical story of the Israelites' exodus from Egypt. Williams wrote this in 1745 as a plea to God for guidance while traveling through life's wilderness. A 280-year-old plea that is still very relevant for us today.  "I am weak, but Thou art mighty // hold me with thy powerful hand," a thought that ...

'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...

"Heartbeat" by Laura Leighe - Dancing in Worship

Here's a song that's more or less been stuck in my head since I heard it. It's called 'Heartbeat' by Laura Leighe and is what Laura calls a "reggaeton-influenced Christian pop duet" that's all about surrendering to God's rhythm and dancing in worship, no matter what life throws your way.  The lyrics remind me of two scriptures: "Praise him with timbrel and dancing, praise him with the strings and pipe."  - Psalm 150:4 (NIV) and "Wearing a linen ephod, David was dancing before the Lord with all his might."  - 2 Samuel 6:14 (NIV). Maybe I'm a bit prejudiced because the song reminds us of our own thoughts when we founded "Christian Dance" years ago and picked a name. Focusing on music that allows us to feel joy and causes us (our hearts) to dance for God, a pure form of worship that we know is pleasing to God. The lyrics are about surrendering our control and trusting in God's plan. Laura sings, "I bet you f...
