'Secret - AD Radio Mix' by Lilli: Discovering Your True Worth Through Song


Lilli - Secret - AD Radio Mix

Lilli’s song, “Secret — AD Radio Mix,” is an invitation to look at your true identity through the lens of God’s unending love. This song is very to Lilli, triggered by watching her friends struggle, all because they didn’t know who they really are, nor were they able to feel God’s love surrounding them.

The lyrics are filled with metaphors, sometimes making it a challenge to grasp its meaning. In the first verse, Lilli observes: “Asking your questions to the sky / You from silence to screaming why / Swapping your memories for a bottle.” Possibly you experience (or have experienced) this as well…. an often-painful search for true meaning in life. Moments where we may have traded peace for fleeting distractions, only to find regret waiting on the other side.

In the chorus, you hear Lilli’s cry: “Are you running on empty / So that you’re not running at all / Are you living just to die? / Running out of time to kill / Can I tell you a secret?” Reaching out to others with an open heart, ready to share the life-changing truth we experience in Christ. A truth that unlocks our a realization that our worth can be found in the immense love that God has for us.

What started as a message for Lilli’s friends is also her message to you. An invitation to experience a deep connection with God, a connection that will hold you strong in times of uncertainty. Look at how Lilli nails this feeling in the bridge, saying, “Did they tell you / You won’t be heard but you will be seen / Just let me tell you.” What more do we need? An invitation to come as you are, to be real, to feel seen and loved.

Give “Secret — AD Radio Mix” a listen. May it remind you of who you truly are, how God truly loves you as you are, and wants to be part of your life.

(Related scripture: Hebrews 4:16; Jeremiah 29:11; Psalm 34:18; Romans 8:38-39)

"Tears of the Lamb (Radio Edit)" by Avery Stafford: Forgiven by the Cross, Made Whole

"Tears of the Lamb (Radio Edit)" by Avery Stafford retells the well-known story of Christ's sacrifice with a deep personal gratitude. A new rendition of a song that Avery first introduced at a 1993 youth rally on a humble blue cassette tape (!) with the lyrics that focus on Jesus' innocence, His willingness to suffer, and the mystery of a love that is beyond anything we are able to comprehend. Instead of dwelling only on the sorrow, Avery points us to the hope that His tears have made possible. You hear him marvel at Christ's mercy, remind us of His forgiveness even in suffering, and celebrate the healing that comes from a life that He has made whole. The message in this worship anthem, reimagined with cinematic flair, is simple (but not easy): Jesus gave everything, and there is nothing we can do or could have done to earn such an ultimate sacrifice. "With tears in Your eyes, You died for me," but most of all, the lyrics highlight redemption's triu...

"Man I Used To Be" by Dax: Half the Weight, Double the Faith

"Man I Used To Be" by Dax is a very personal song. Dax had promised himself that he wouldn't release new music until he'd stayed sober for six months, the time he needed to get his priorities straight and clear his mind. "Man I Used To Be" is the sound of his first clean breath, life with God by his side. Dax lays it bare: "Trials and tribulations, all my past trauma," he acknowledges, along with "generational curses from daddy and mama," and the "addictions that clouded my eyes." The honesty about his past struggles makes the message of this song so relatable and powerful.  The chorus is about the moment that the script was flipped, "I'm half the man I used to be." Not a broken man, but a man who has been freed from the burdens that weren't his to carry and kept him from God. "I don't ever chase, I got God," declaring that his new identity is anchored in faith. It's a shrug and a testimo...

"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....
