Alexander Reign's "Listen": A Testimony to Faith


Listen to Alexander Reign's song 'Listen,' immediately changes your mindset, helping you to focus on feeling the presence of the Holy Spirit. The song started as a melody that Alexander played during worship. A melody that evolved into a powerful collaboration with his brother in Christ, Brett Raio. Together, they created a song about trusting God and tuning out worldly noises.

Alexander Reign - ListenThe lyrics are a conversation with God. 'Said everything I am, the man I am, it is because it's from you God' captures the essence of surrendering to His plan, and forfeiting our own. It's about recognizing that our identity and purpose come from God's mercy and guidance, and not something we try to create on our own.

Possibly one of the biggest challenges we face is found in the song that says, 'Call me and send me and leave me I'll go, following You on this narrow road.' We need constant reminders to stay on God's path, even when it's difficult. The song encourages us to trust God's way, to follow His call, wherever it may lead us, and to cleanse our heart. The promise... to find joy we never thought was possible.

'Brett Raio’s voice complements this message beautifully,' says Reign. 'We only want to listen to You,' he sings, emphasizing the importance of just focusing on God's words.

Listening to 'Listen' is a call to deepen our faith. It's one of those songs that you feel in your heart, and leads you to a place where we can alignment with God and find peace.

May this song guide your day today (and further). May its message improve your walk with God, and remind you to listen to His voice above everything else.

(Related scripture: Isaiah 30:21; Proverbs 3:5-6; John 10:27)

"Is Anybody There? (Psalm 27)" by Stephen M. Miller: Holding On to Grace at Heaven’s Door

Stephen M. Miller's "Is Anybody There? (Psalm 27)" comes in the quiet aftermath of the Christmas celebrations, when reflection can feel like isolation. Stephen's song isn't about polishing away his mistakes, nor does it encourage you to do so with your mistakes. Stephen shares his painful experience, "I never saw it coming Lord // It felt right but it was wrong // Family and friends have left me // But I still have you and a song."   Stephen owns the fallout of his actions, taking accountability without despair. "I said it and I did it, Lord // Broke more hearts than I'll ever know // I can't fix this, though I've tried // Don't be angry, and please don't go." His song is a prayer for God's presence and guidance. "Hear me when I call you, Lord // Don't turn your face away // Don't give up on me like others have // Come help me through this day." Stephen describes a fear that we too experience when we ...

"Fishers of Men" by Tyler Philip Ratcliffe: Dropping Your Nets and Following Without Looking Back

Jesus doesn’t call the qualified. He qualifies the called.  “Fishers of Men” by Tyler Philip Ratcliffe was written back in July of 2024. It was the first Christian folk-style song that Tyler had ever written, and he had no idea at the time that God was going to pull him in that direction. It’s a favorite among his friends and family, and God recently laid it on his heart to share it with the rest of the world.  The song draws from the ordinary moments when Jesus walked up to fishermen and tax collectors and said two words that changed everything: “Follow Me.”   What strikes you in the lyrics is the honesty. “My friends thought I was crazy, and my folks just shook their heads.” Following Jesus has always looked strange from the outside. Peter left a fishing business. Matthew walked away from a lucrative government post. Neither of these men had it all figured out, but they simply responded to a call they couldn’t ignore.  Maybe you also know that feeling. The moment ...

"Forever" by Randy Wade: The God Who Has Always Been

The King who reigns forever also reigns over you. Before a single star burned in the sky, before the first mountain rose from the earth, God was. Worship Pastor and Contemporary Christian songwriter Rev. Randy Wade captures this in his song “Forever”, a song built on the unshakeable and eternal nature of God. “Before the mountains were lifted high, before the stars gave light to the sky, You O Lord have always been, the One with no beginning and no end.”   Randy wrote “Forever” to point our hearts toward Christ. The song pulls your gaze off the noise of daily life and fixes it on the One who exists outside of time. We have a God who doesn’t react to circumstances, but One who reigns above them. Revelation 1:8 declares, “I am the Alpha and the Omega, says the Lord God, who is and who was and who is to come, the Almighty.” This scripture isn’t just a declaration; it can also be read as a personal promise. It is the same God who holds eternity in His hands who also holds your uncerta...
