"Adoration Song" by Mark & Sarah Tillman: A Celebration of Eternal Worship


We're so excited about this radio edit of "Adoration Song" by Mark & Sarah Tillman, which features the South African artist Kingdmusic. The full version was released back in May 2024, and it was time for a radio edit. A renewed spark for a song that is so fitting as we enter this special season of the year, where it seems that so many more people are open to hear the praise: "Hosanna in the highest!" 

Mark & Sarah Tillman - Adoration SongThe idea for this song came while talking with a friend, exploring the question of what true adoration looks like for a God who is infinitely worthy. A link is quickly made to Psalms 102:12: "But you, O Lord, are enthroned forever; you are remembered throughout all generations." 

The lyrics are an honest reflection on what it really means to adore our God. Yes, what a blessing it is that we may call Him "our God!" Not just your God or my God, He is our God! That message is comes forward when you look at this collaboration, where Nashville's style is blended with South African vibrancy, an example that demonstrates one of the many ways that nations can unite in adoration of our God. 

There is only one who is truly worthy of our praise. When we hear Mark & Sarah sing, "Holy is the Lamb that reigns forever," it feels like an open invitation to join them along with angels and other saints.

(Related scripture: Psalms 102:12; Revelation 5:12; Psalms 86:9; John 1:29)

"Boxes" by John Long: Breaking Free from Religious Boxes

(by Jasper Tan) John Long’s “Boxes,” written with Dustin Smith, is both a reflection and criticism of how we oftentimes allow ourselves to be limited (“boxed”) with our faith. Using the “box” as the core metaphor of the song, it represents our self-imposed (or community-imposed) limitations with religious traditions that prevents genuine a genuine relationship with God. John emphasizes that these limitations often run into conflict with the original intentions of God, to have a free flowing holy communion with God. The song is characterized by our sense of longing and our desire to re-approach our Faith with clean hands and a pure heart. From the opening lines itself, we are challenged to evaluate the current status of our faith and come to realize that it may never really what we intend it to be. Our intention from the start was born from a desire to start a deep and Holy Communion with God, and as the bridge and chorus approaches, the song has a more personal and prayerful tone. We a...

"The Cross" by Mhammed El Alami & HKL: At the Cross, Where Mercy Meets the Weary Heart

Rooted in the story of Jesus giving Himself at Calvary for everyone, "The Cross" by Mhammed El Alami & HKL turns this familiar message into a very personal invitation. Just stop carrying what is crushing you ( "Lay it down, let it go" ), surrender it to Christ, and let Him hold you. These lyrics are not only about the cross at Calvary. It's also about your cross, your fear, your shame, and your need for His peace. "Darkness fell, I was breaking fast," and we may count on the forgiving arms of a merciful Savior who is always there, even when our lives feel cold and heavy. "At the cross // You gave it all, you felt the cold // and love took hold // and made me whole." It's at the cross where "mercy bled and grace was born" for you, personally. It's where His grace clears your way home. What does that mean for us today? It means that we do not need to walk or carry our burdens alone. We may place everything that weighs u...

"He's My Rock" by Jamar Esaw & Triad 4 Christ: Finding Shelter in the Storm

(by Jasper Tan) “He’s My Rock” by Jamar Esaw & Triad4Christ featuring Koriann Lewis-Freeman is a powerful contemporary Gospel track that delivers a blend of traditional worship and modern soul. It reminds me of some of the songs by the band DC Talk, which was the definitive sound of modern Christian Contemporary Music when it exploded in the music scene back in the 90’s. This contemporary Gospel track brings forth an energetic sound that updates the way we sing our praise and worship sessions in our Churches. The song brings in a raw modern energy that breaks tradition while also encouraging worship sessions to be more in tune with the times, which brings a lot of youthful energy. The song is powered by Jamar Esaw’s smooth, commanding vocals and Koriann Lewis-Freeman’s additional vocal range. Bringing in an electric chemistry rooted in the authenticity of emotions as they sang the lyrics of the song. This is clearly felt during the song’s build-up to its climactic moments. With a r...
