Marcus & Jalyn McGill's 'Deserted' – Have Faith and Patience, We're Never Deserted


"Deserted" by Marcus & Jalyn McGill is a beautiful single from their upcoming project "between barren & beautiful." This song uses poetic imagery of walking through a desert and compares this to our struggles as we wait on God's promises. Our struggles take us through feelings of hope and doubt, while all God asks from us is that we trust in His timing.

Marcus & Jalyn McGill - DesertedThe first half of "Deserted" captures our side of a journey—our struggle as we wait for God to fulfill His promises. You see the confusion and frustration in the lines like: "But day turns to night, and I sit in the dark," and "I look to the stars, but it is so hard, to believe again."

The second half of the song shifts to God's response and how He urges us to see His faithfulness even in difficult times. "Don't miss the beauty of the stars" and "you're not deserted" reminding us that God's presence and love are a constant factor, never to be doubted, and He is encouraging us to surrender and trust in His plan.

Sometimes we feel as if we're deserted, but the fact is that God is with us every step of the way.

(Related scripture: Isaiah 40:31; Deuteronomy 31:6; Psalm 91:1-2)

"Back to Life" by James Bizak: Power in the Name of Jesus With Pop Punk Sound

"Back to Life" by James Bizak is a raw, high-energy pop punk track with a bold Christian truth… Whenever we are feeling broken or lost, we will find hope and redemption in Jesus. The choice of this genre is intended to reach a wider audience, as well as more youth, right where they are—possibly feeling broken, abandoned, or even feeling dead inside.  The lyrics reflect a pain and emptiness that so many people are feeling: "I've been broken // Beaten down // My faith stolen."
