Sherwood Worship's "Almighty (Song of Ascent) [Live]": A Song of Unwavering Faith


Sherwood Worship's live rendition of "Almighty (Song of Ascent)" is a powerful, energetic worship song. The lyrics were inspired by the Psalms of Ascent, and declare an unwavering trust in God's promises and His divine victory, and for many, this may be easier said than done.

Sherwood Worship - Almighty (Song of Ascent) [Live]The song's message and intent are clear: God is our steadfast protector and the only true source of hope. The opening lines immediately set the theme for the song, "O the Lord God is with us / Tho darkness may assail," a reminder that God's promises never fail, no matter what challenges we face. The chorus encourages us to sing in praise as we recognize His power and might and His ultimate triumph over evil. 

"Almighty" is a call to each one of us to hold onto our faith, join together in worship, and place our hope in the Lord each and every day of our lives. God never asked us to travel this journey on our own. Not only is He with us, but we also are part of His church, a place with like-minded believers, where we may give and receive support, strengthen each other, praise Him together, and share practical ways that help us grow in faith and see how He is constantly preparing our ways. May this song help you to place your unwavering trust in Him.

(Related scripture: Psalm 121:1-2; Romans 8:31; Psalm 62:5-6)

"In the Room" by Matt Maher feat. Chris Brown: A Heartfelt Desire for Divine Presence

Matt Maher's collaboration with Chris Brown, 'In the Room,' is a soul-stirring Christian song that encapsulates the profound longing to witness transformative moments in the presence of God. The lyrics express the desire to be present when God's power touches broken hearts, ignites faith, and brings healing. The song's verses convey a yearning for those irreplaceable instances when heaven and earth intersect, leading to changed hearts and restored lives. The chorus's declaration, ' I just wanna be in the room when You move,' beautifully encapsulates the eagerness to witness God's miraculous work up close. The bridge's vivid imagery of tearing off the roof and pushing through the crowd reflects the determination to encounter God, no matter the obstacles. The repetition of the bridge emphasizes the earnest plea to witness God's breakthroughs and freedom. 'In the Room' is an invitation to be part of moments that are greater than oneself...

"Sunlight (Storge)" by Chelsea Chaisson: Reminisce the Simpler Times

(by Jasper Tan) Feel good, light-hearted, easy listening track. That's how I find Chelsea Chaisson's new single called "Sunlight (Storge)." I was kind of curious what the word "Storge" means, so I had to look it up. According to Wikipedia, "Storge is a Greek word that refers to natural, familial affection or love, particularly the bond between parents and children, as well as among family members and close friends. It is characterized by familiarity, dependence, and loyalty, often rooted in kinship bonds and shared experiences." Sounds very familiar? Of course, it should be, because as per the description, it actually describes what Christian love is. Or should I say how God loves us as His children? Chelsea was inspired to write this song by reminiscing about her childhood, marked by simpler times spent with her cousins and their grandma.  Countless times, we always heard the saying that we all should have faith like a child. The reason for that i...

"A Love Song" by Seek and Surrender: The Three-Stranded Covenant

(By Jasper Tan) We always see people say "I love you" to someone, professing their love to that significant other. But we often see how a marriage united by love easily shreds to tatters, and we ask ourselves, "Why?" Where did it all go wrong? How did something joined together by love easily get broken and be accepted as "falling out of love"? But the biggest thought that comes to mind while listening to Seek and Surrender's latest song, "A Love Song," is: do we really understand what it feels like to love? In Seek and Surrender's song, there are countless lines in which the singer professes his love to his bride. It seeks to highlight the sincerity of his love, the magnanimity, the pureness. But in those lines, there's this line that we all should focus on —  "If Christ gave Himself for His bride, Oh, then I'll give myself for mine." Do we know how Christ gave himself for his bride (the Church)? He sacrificed himself w...
