'I Wait For You' by Alane J: Finding God in the Waiting


Alane J's song, 'I Wait For You,' isn't about the silent, passive act of waiting. It focuses on active waiting that requires faith, especially when the waiting is for healing or for things to change for the better. What I also like about this song is Alane's honesty and vulnerability. As you listen to the lyrics, you may even start to recognize elements of your own waiting. When she sings about waiting for healing, for a sign, or just simply to be more aware of God's presence, it's as if Alane is also giving a voice to our own thoughts and prayers. 

Alane J - I Wait For YouThe lyrics are easy to relate to, and they are not just meaningful for people who are struggling. It's a song for anyone who has hoped, believed, or just needed to know that they are loved and not alone. Alane has beautifully used her own experience to give others hope. Her message also shares the joy you'll feel when waiting comes to an end. 

Let 'I Wait For You' remind you that waiting isn't solely about the end result; it's also about our thoughts and mindset along the way. A key point is to focus on the light, even if it seems to be far away, and allow God's spirit to move and shape our hearts and lead us forward. There is a promise of something beautiful on the horizon with every wait. There is good in waiting, so don't give up.

(Related scripture: Isaiah 40:31; Psalm 27:14; Lamentations 3:25-26)

"Heaven Country" by Jensen & Company: Where Faith Meets Fiddles

Jensen & Company's 'Heaven Country' features Heidi Jensen North. It's a song that bursts with an infectious Texas swing energy, with steel guitars, fiddles, and washboard rhythms that pull you into the vibe. Beneath this melodic energy is a message with a promise: heaven isn't just a destination, it's a homeland where every tear is wiped away!  Can you imagine streets where lions walk with lambs, hunger vanishes, and divisions dissolve into unity? What a contrast compared with today's world! One of the lines that stands out: "There's no divide - there's just one side // The Son is shining every day."  What if we were to start living today as citizens of that eternal country? What's stopping us? The song challenges us: "All the love that you've acquired here - it's your money // Be sure to fill your account." It's a call to invest in what truly lasts. You've never seen its glory, never heard its songs - but...

'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...

"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...
