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)

“I Believe” by Reagan Nichole: A Ten-Year-Old’s Bold Declaration of Faith

What if darkness can’t stay where Jesus lives? Eleven-year-old Reagan Nichole from Texas wrote “I Believe” right after she turned ten. Most of us wait decades before saying what we believe out loud. She sings it! Her opening lines name a fear many people quietly carry with them: “You think that you’ve gone way too far, that there’s no way to turn back.” Have you ever felt that? Reagan reminds us of a promise. Jesus “will wash you clean.” No résumé required. No catching up. She calls the song her personal declaration that Jesus Christ is the Son of God. Her faith isn’t a Sunday event. It lives in everyday life and turns dark to light. She sings: “I know He makes the darkness flee.” Jesus said the same thing long before any songwriter did. In John 8:12 He tells us, “I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will not walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.” Notice the verb, “…follow …” . His light isn’t something you earn. You walk in it, one step at a time, right in t...

"Digging Ditches" Brandon Drit: Preparing for Water You Can’t See

Obedience comes first. The rain comes later. Brandon Drit knows what dry seasons can feel like. His song, “Digging Ditches”, opens on a desert road, with strength fading and a question that probably sounds a lot like yours: “How much longer will this last?” The message of the song grew out of 2 Kings 3:16, and it also marks his first professionally edited and mastered release, a ditch of its own, dug in faith. Picture the following scene. Three armies are stranded in the wilderness with nothing to drink. Then God sends Elisha with a strange order: dig trenches in the dry valley. The promise that follows sounds impossible: “You shall not see wind or rain, but that streambed shall be filled with water, so that you shall drink” (2 Kings 3:17). Digging in a drought will seem foolish to some. Who on earth shovels dirt for rain that hasn’t shown up? Only the people who trust the One who promised it. We’ve seen similar promises happen before (e.g., Noah), and in 2 Kings 3 we see it happenin...

"My Love of Christmas (Peace Starts in Me)" by Avery Stafford: One Heart at Peace Can Change the Room

Peace begins in a willing heart. When did you last open your own time capsule? Avery Stafford found a time capsule somewhere in his mind and opens it in his song “My Love of Christmas (Peace Starts in Me)”. His time capsule contained a Folgers can filled with buttons and thread, a crystal globe, a denim patch, and the scent of Avon cologne. Seemingly ordinary treasures, but each one carries a Christmas that he’s never stopped loving. Avery blends gospel warmth with soulful pop to speak to the child in all of us, the child who still believes that Love leads the way. In the bridge, he wishes that child well, “forever dancing under the starlight with stories yet to tell.” The song also reminds us that memories alone cannot fix a restless / broken world, and he knows it: “We long for happily ever afters, but none of us really knows.” So where does peace begin? Not in a headline, a treaty, the outcome of the midterms, or a December calendar. Paul gives us an answer in Colossians 3:15: “And...
