"I Am (Radio Edit)" by Avery Stafford: A Majestic Declaration of God’s Glory


Avery Stafford's "I Am (Radio Edit)" is a breathtaking song that invites us into a moment of awe and worship as we celebrate the unmatched majesty of God. The song uses imagery of creation—from the "light of day" to the "peaks of Kilimanjaro"—as Avery points us back to the Creator. You'll quickly find yourself singing along with the refrain, "The Alpha and Omega—I Am," lyrics that emphasize God's eternal nature and remind that sovereign over all things.

Avery Stafford - I Am (Radio Edit)Avery wrote the song in 1995, when he moved from his youth ministry in Port Orchard, WA, to pursue music in Portland, OR. It became part of his groundbreaking work with One A'Chord and was later featured on his 2005 album "Undignified." Together with Tim Storms (known for his Guinness World Record-breaking vocals), he adds a unique richness to this timeless song. 

The song calls us to join in unity with heaven and declare, "All over heaven, hear our voices ringing!" Its message is clear: no matter where we are, we're invited to magnify His name and proclaim His glory. May this song bless you and its profound declaration of faith point your heart to God.

(Related scripture: Revelation 4:11; Isaiah 42:8; Exodus 3:14)

"Run There" by Hayden Snook: When Life Overwhelms, Here's Where to Go

What do you do when life feels like too much? When the noise, the pressure, and the emotional weight won't let up? Hayden Snook found his answer — and he wrote it into "Run There."  Born out of a moment of genuine overwhelm, this folk rock track doesn't pretend everything is fine. Instead, Snook leans into the tension. "I may stray, I may move — all those feelings held within me are nothing to Your victory." Our struggles are real, but so is the God who meets us in it.  The lyrics recall some of Scripture's most powerful moments, like David crying out in anguish, the stone rolling away, men standing firm in the face of death. These moments are proof and they give each of us hope that we can build on today. If God showed up then, He'll show up now.  "Run There" is an invitation to trust God. "You may stray, you may move — there's nothing our God can't do." So don't walk… Run to Him! Give "Run There" a listen...

"Heal Me O Lord" by Sandra Lam: Restored by His Wounds

(by Jasper Tan) "Heal Me O Lord" by Sandra Lamb is a powerful, soul-stirring gospel song that touches on themes of faith, surrender, and finding healing in God. The song serves as a heartfelt prayer where Sandra expresses her vulnerability and her moments of weakness and loneliness, and her strong faith to find healing in God in order for her to be restored.
