Pair of Us and Their Soul-Stirring Song 'As I Behold You'


Pair of Us just released their single, “As I Behold You.” It’s an upbeat worship song that calls you to keep your focus on Jesus and follow His path. Written by Mykenzie seven years ago during a challenging period where everything seemed to pull her attention away from what truly mattered most — her faith in God.

Pair of Us - As I Behold YouNo matter what life throws at you, don’t lose your focus on Jesus. That’s the main message of the song.

Lyrics such as, “I’ll set my gaze and You lead the way… My heart is set ablaze with passion for Your name,” make it easy to feel inspired and uplifted. Each verse speaks to the daily struggle of staying true to our faith, and the chorus affirms our commitment: “Let this be my deepest cry… all my life… As I behold You.”

You don’t just listen — you experience it. Whether you’re getting ready in the morning, belting it out in the shower, or on a your way to work, this is a song that fits every moment.

The song has been performed in quite a few churches and Christian communities, and is loved by so many. Mykenzie and Mikko decided to record this in their home studio in Finland, bringing more intimacy into each note and lyric.

So why not let “As I Behold You” be a part of your daily playlist? May you find yourself inspired and more connected to God.

(Related scripture: Hebrews 12:2; Psalm 27:4; John 14:6)

"Your Love" by Kevin Winebarger - When Mercy Becomes Your Identity

Kevin Winebarger teamed up with Joshua Frerichs and Benji Cowart to create this beautiful song. "Your Love" tackles that discouraging voice we all hear from time to time, the one that whispers that we're not enough and that we are defined by our past. "Once a liar, always a liar," and all kinds of variations along this same line of thought. This song isn't about wallowing in shame. "Your Love" is a celebration of the grace that changes everything.  The opening lines hit hard: "I could believe that I'm not enough // It's clear to see I don't measure up." Yep, we've all been there! But this isn't how God want us to be defined… He loved us first! "It's just what You've done // Because of Your love." That's the heart of everything.  Kevin places the change the God brings into perspective, "I could believe that my mistakes // Will follow me down into the grave // But I'm not who I was....

"He Must Increase" by Rorie: Humbling ourselves in God’s presence

Inspired by the verses John 3:30, Philippians 3:7–8, and John 10:27, Rorie releases "He Must Increase", a beautiful song that reminds us of the sound of CCM from the 2000s, easily the era when the rise of CCM was at its peak. Rorie sings the song with earnestness as she opens the lines "The seasons change and we are aging, But You alone are God of the ages." You'll immediately know that this song is putting God front and center. There's a certain aspect of the song that clearly wants to remind us that God will always be bigger than us. That his glory and mercy will always shine through, and we are mere travelers in the world that he built. Everything emanates from him, and we cannot claim to be bigger than God.  It's a humbling reminder that what we have, what we attained, it all comes as a blessing that He has gifted to us. We cannot claim that it is our works that brought us the joys and triumphs. These gifts and accomplishments are nothing without Hi...

"Thankful" by Lowen: The Practice of Being Thankful

Lowen's "Thankful" isn't one of those typical feel-good gratitude songs. Life is good most of the time… and even when it hurts, there's often something quietly waiting inside the pain, like a lesson, a softening, or a deeper understanding. Lowen found inspiration for this song in what Stephen Colbert once said, "… he learned to love the thing he most wished had never happened, and that simply being here is a gift. Gratitude means holding all of it, not just the easy parts."   The lyrics open with a warm anchor: "Every day that I wake, I just feel so thankful." We're encouraged not to flinch from the messy middle. This is not about ignoring life's quakes! Lowen admits, "honesty is telling me I need space" when the world feels unsteady. In other words, the gratitude that Lowen sings about isn't about forcing a smile through pain — it's about meeting every moment (including the hard moments) with presence, care, and res...
