'Abel to Jesus' by E. James Smith: A Melodious Journey from Beginnings to Aspirations


E. James Smith's new song 'Abel to Jesus' is a song with a strong rock base, a soulful horn section, and lively choral vocals. The story of this song, 'Abel to Jesus', tells something we all know too well: the ups and downs of life form us into who we are. Through faith, we have the confidence that all of these experiences are molding us into who we were meant to be. As a result, the name we've been given or the problems we've faced don't really matter. What really shapes us is allowing God to use these experiences to help us grow, improve and ultimately, do our best. Through the raw honesty of Smith's lyrics, the essence of our humanity finds a voice. 

E. James Smith - Abel to JesusJust as fascinating is the fact that Smith got the idea for 'Abel to Jesus' from looking through a phone book. I doubt if 'Abel de Jesus' realizes that his name helped to spark a masterful song of faith. A song highlighting that the journey from 'Abel,' who represents our beginning, to 'Jesus,' who represents how we strive to be the best version of ourselves, is both unique to each of us and shared by everyone.  

'Abel to Jesus' by E. James Smith is not only inspiring, but masterfully combines all of our complex human experiences into a beautiful song to reflect life's journey in general. It's a song that makes us reflect, resonate, and stirs our hearts. Give it a listen. Let it speak to your heart as you clap along to its energizing tune.

"Sunlight (Storge)" by Chelsea Chaisson: Reminisce the Simpler Times

(by Jasper Tan) Feel good, light-hearted, easy listening track. That's how I find Chelsea Chaisson's new single called "Sunlight (Storge)." I was kind of curious what the word "Storge" means, so I had to look it up. According to Wikipedia, "Storge is a Greek word that refers to natural, familial affection or love, particularly the bond between parents and children, as well as among family members and close friends. It is characterized by familiarity, dependence, and loyalty, often rooted in kinship bonds and shared experiences." Sounds very familiar? Of course, it should be, because as per the description, it actually describes what Christian love is. Or should I say how God loves us as His children? Chelsea was inspired to write this song by reminiscing about her childhood, marked by simpler times spent with her cousins and their grandma.  Countless times, we always heard the saying that we all should have faith like a child. The reason for that i...

"Temptation" by Dax: Fighting Spiritual Warfare Through Faith and Prayer

Have you ever felt like the battle against temptation is relentless? In his powerful track "Temptation," Dax reminds us that every moment of resistance is a victory. He doesn't shy away from the reality that "temptations outside, knocking at my door." Instead of hiding the struggle, he exposes it. He admits that while he "won the battle last night," the war continues. In other words, spiritual discipline is a daily choice. Dax explains that temptation finds safety in an "idle mind" and when we lack purpose. But most of all, he offers a strategy for triumph: "starve my flesh, then feed my spirit with faith." So, why trade your peace of mind for fleeting pleasure? The lyrics trace our struggles back to the garden and "Adam and Eve," and also point us toward redemption.  "Down by the Riverbend // in the garden, where the snake tempted Adam and Eve, // they ate the fruit and from those seeds // grew the roots of this ...

"Jesus Is His Name" by Aaron Goodhew: The Name That Changes Everything

“Jesus Is His Name” by Aaron Goodhew is a song written as a Christ-centred declaration of who God is and what He has done. The song begins by asking, “Who designed creation and called it into being?” and quickly answers by pointing our eyes “high above the heavens” and leading us to the very place “where he rests his feet.” In other words, this is worship from creation to restoration. Each verse walks through different parts of Christ’s work: parting waters, calming storms, healing lepers, restoring outcasts, setting captives free. The chorus invites the church to confess together: "He is the Lord God // Lifted up // Mighty to be praised // Sovereign King of kings // Name above all names." But most of all, He is the personal Savior “The one who paid our ransom // The one who saved a wretch like me.” The bridge crowns this declaration, calling Jesus “wonderful counsellor, mighty king and friend,” the Lion and the Lamb whose glory we cannot fully comprehend. A declaration...
