I Am Yours' by Ryan & Wendy Wegner: The Joy Found After Surrender


In 'I Am Yours,' Ryan and Wendy Wegner sing about the process we all go through at some point in our lives of surrendering to God's will. Written while they were face to face with the harsh realities of life, this song is filled with hope and trust. As Ryan battled a neurological disorder and their family faced severe health challenges and loss, Ryan and Wendy were ready to give up on music, and they didn't think they would ever lead worship again. It is in this setting that the song 'I Am Yours,' a prayer of surrender, became an anchor. 

Ryan & Wendy Wegner - I Am YoursThe lyrics reflect a raw, heartfelt prayer to God: "I'm right where you want me—poured out and ready—I'm here to offer my heart completely." A declaration that despite all of the chaos that life is throwing at them, it is God who is in control and who they trust without hesitation. 

The message and intent of this song is such a powerful encouragement to trust God, even when it feels like our lives are completely off course. At the same time, it reminds us that we are never alone or unseen; God walks with us, ready to guide us, and he asks for us to completely surrender. 

May 'I Am Yours' ignite a similar prayer of complete surrender in your heart, one that anchors you through any storm.

(Related scripture: Romans 12:1; Isaiah 6:8; Psalm 23:4)

"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...

"Hiding Place (Live)" by DBU Chapel Worship: Forgiven, Covered, and Free

How often do you hear worship songs being sung live in the comforts of your day-to-day living? For sure, there are a dime a dozen. Some you commonly share with the person next to you, featuring songs by popular Christian Artists. But there's a certain form of unique sincerity when one discovers a worship song that is yet to break through to a larger audience. This is how the song "Hiding Place" by DBU Chapel Worship featuring Olivia-Grace McKern felt like when I first listened to the song. It felt like a new testimony being told, of one's dedication to find God and remain in his presence.  Taking root from Psalm 32, the song is a collaboration of Olivia with a host of songwriters from the DBU Chapel Worship. Enriching her experience as a songwriter and moving her through the songwriting process. In perhaps a reflection of what the song eventually became, it wasn't so that Olivia conveniently hid behind the DBU Chapel Worship songwriters/musicians. This song is a c...
