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.

"The List Goes On (Jordan's Song)" by Chris Sarver: Finding Freedom in Faith

Have you ever felt the weight of the past (old chains) even after you're free? Chris Sarver's "The List Goes On (Jordan's Song)" addresses this specific struggle. Chris shared the following: "Like many of you, I have been part of text thread groups whose main purpose is for encouragement and prayer. … About four years ago, in one of those men's groups, my friend from church, Jordan Hanks, shared a message you can see in the picture. It was simple. He wrote about how sometimes we feel the old weight we carried before Jesus lifted it. And when that weight tries to creep back in, he reminds himself of the names Jesus has earned in his life. He is a Healer." In other words, when shame whispers lies, we must speak truth louder. The lyrics confess, "The chains are gone, sometimes I still find that I can feel their weight." Instead of hiding this feeling, Chris Sarver turns it into a moment of worship. He calls out names that Jesus has earned in...

"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...

"Praise You In The Morning" by Taylor Pride: Waking up to the sound of Worship

(by Jasper Tan) Taylor Pride's latest single, "Praise You In The Morning" is an uplifting song that is a powerful reminder of God's faithfulness in different seasons and circumstances. The song is an acknowledgement that even if we are facing hardships and difficulties, we should still continue to praise God, for he is our provider and protector. And that he has promised to redeem us in his perfect time. The song follows an established style of Taylor's "heart-on-your-sleeve" type of worship song, drawing inspiration for this song's music from the likes of Cody Carnes and Phil Wickham's songs, the likes of which are simple with an easy-to-sing chorus layered by joyful sounds. The lyrics serve as a prayer for those in the "desert seasons," suggesting that praise is a choice made even in times of uncertainty with our faith. The song uses the transition from night to day as a metaphor for moving from weeping to hope. It is a modern worship...
