'You Hear My Cry' by Alma Rei: A Song for the Broken


Alma Rei's 'You Hear My Cry' is a moving song, with a bit of an alternative sound, for every believer that is looking for peace and connection with God. With this fifth single, Alma Rei works up to the upcoming album, 'Back to the Garden'. This is a song for every follower of Jesus who mourns, seeks rest, and is still yearning. 

Alma Rei - You Hear My Cry'You Hear My Cry' brings you face-to-face with the profound truth that suffering and pain can be an invitation to trust God and that even in moments of silence, God is still listening. From the opening lines, 'Where are you Lord, where is my God,' you're drawn into the raw honesty that many of us will feel but find so hard to express. This song becomes a hymn for those times when you're reaching out to God, feeling like He's just out of reach.

It's easy to feel the sincere plea for God's presence in lines like 'Here I am, hungry and thirsty; will you satisfy?' It's a relatable cry, and it could make you ponder why it can be so difficult to repeat these same words in your own prayers.

The chorus reminds us that always God hears us, even when it feels as if we're alone. The key message is to surrender to Him, and know that He's there, listening, and moving even when we can't see Him.

Give 'You Hear My Cry' a listen. May it be an invitation to find peace in God's embrace.

(Related scripture: Psalm 34:17; Isaiah 41:10; Romans 8:26)

"Hiding Place (Live)" by DBU Chapel Worship: Forgiven, Covered, and Free

How often do you hear worship songs being sung live in the comforts of your day-to-day living? For sure, there are a dime a dozen. Some you commonly share with the person next to you, featuring songs by popular Christian Artists. But there's a certain form of unique sincerity when one discovers a worship song that is yet to break through to a larger audience. This is how the song "Hiding Place" by DBU Chapel Worship featuring Olivia-Grace McKern felt like when I first listened to the song. It felt like a new testimony being told, of one's dedication to find God and remain in his presence.  Taking root from Psalm 32, the song is a collaboration of Olivia with a host of songwriters from the DBU Chapel Worship. Enriching her experience as a songwriter and moving her through the songwriting process. In perhaps a reflection of what the song eventually became, it wasn't so that Olivia conveniently hid behind the DBU Chapel Worship songwriters/musicians. This song is a c...

'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...
