Salvatore James' New Song 'Stay' Is a Spiritual Reprieve We All Need


Salvatore James's brand-new song 'Stay' is about having faith in God 's timing and direction. This song is based on Proverbs 3:5–6 and John 14:27. It tells us that we shouldn't rely too much on what we know, but on His infinite wisdom. 

Salvatore James - StayThe lyrics are like a prayer to God. With lines like 'Light my way again' and 'Where would I be without you?' Salvatore is clear about the fact that the safest way to live is to follow the path He shows you. The lyrics show a deep respect for and reliance on God's guidance. They also warn us that depending on our own logic and gut feelings increases the risk that we are going off-course, which is exactly what's happening to a lot of people these days. The beauty is that this doesn't have to be the case for us. We can be assured that God will lead us to safety... if we are prepared to accept His guidance. 

This song was created in Salvatore's bedroom studio, and has an organic vibe to it. This is evident in the raw emotion behind the music. Salvatore used samples from Splice for this song and put together the drum patterns himself, creating a track that feels both personal and quite relatable. 

We believe that you won't want to miss this musical devotion filled with energy and hope. A song that gently encourages the listener to have faith in God's perfect timing and direction. When God says 'stay,' there's no better place to be.

(Related scripture: John 14:27; Proverbs 3:5-6; Philippians 4:6-7)

"Guide Me (O, Thou Great Jehovah) / Oceans (Where Feet May Fail)" by Ezra Worship Initiative – Ancient Wisdom, Fresh Waves

I'm sitting in traffic, Spotify on shuffle, listening to my collection of new releases. That's when the song "Guide Me (O, Thou Great Jehovah) / Oceans (Where Feet May Fail)" by Ezra Worship Initiative starts to play. The song starts with a revamp of a 280-year-old hymn "Guide Me O Thou Great Jehovah", and then beautifully transitions to the chorus of Hillsong's "Oceans (Where Feet May Fail)". This medley made my heart do a little cartwheel!  The hymn "Guide Me, O Thou Great Jehovah" (originally "Arglwydd, arwain trwy'r anialwch" in Welsh) by William Williams (a Welsh Methodist preacher) was inspired by the biblical story of the Israelites' exodus from Egypt. Williams wrote this in 1745 as a plea to God for guidance while traveling through life's wilderness. A 280-year-old plea that is still very relevant for us today.  "I am weak, but Thou art mighty // hold me with thy powerful hand," a thought that ...

'Whatever It Takes – Acoustic' by Stephen Stanley: Embracing Divine Grace Amid Trial

Stephen Stanley vividly portrays the profound journey of faith in his moving acoustic rendition of the song 'Whatever It Takes'. His sincerity echoes the difficulties of completely surrendering one's heart to God despite being burdened by past mistakes and self-doubt. However, as we all know, the journey to the divine, while difficult, ultimately changes everything. 'Whatever it Takes,' a testament to Stanley's commitment, is a vocal affirmation to live continuously for God. The lyrics touch listeners' hearts as he admits, 'I've been reckless with my heart / Now I'm falling apart'; a message that many can relate to. This bold declaration is followed by a powerful surrender: 'I don't wanna be the same / I need You to be the change / I surrender all I am.' Stanley's song reaches out to everyone who has struggled with their shortcomings and leads them to the comforting presence of God. Self-doubt and the fear of falling may plagu...
