"The Greatness of You" by InHymn: Marveling at God’s Power and Personal Love


InHymn's "The Greatness of You" is a beautiful song that captures the duality of God's power and His personal love for us. The lyrics invite us to stop what we're doing and marvel at His handiwork—"the stars above, the thunder's roll"—while also reflecting on His ultimate act of love: sending His Son to bear our pain and wash away our sins. With lyrics such as "How great You are, in every way," you realize that the song is more than observing God's greatness, it's also an invitation to experience it personally.

InHymn - The Greatness of YouThe song was born from a quiet moment during a stormy summer evening, as the songwriter watched the storm unfold: "From my sheltered seat, I watched the storm unfold and was deeply moved by the reminder that the same God who created the storms, the wind, and the rain—who still commands them today—loves ME. So much, in fact, that He sent His only Son to die on a cross for my multitude of sins. ME… a person who means nothing to the world but who is loved without limits by the God of everything. And this same loving God, who reigns over heaven and earth, is the one I will one day meet face-to-face." 

The Creator of thunder and wind loves each of us individually, and this is a beautiful way to remind each other of our calling to share God's love and be the kind of person that sparks curiosity in non-believers. It's lines like "Your love, it shines, it never fades" that emphasize our faith in His unchanging grace and encourage us to look to Him at all times, no matter what we are facing in our lives.

May this song be an invitation to worship deeply and find ways to share more about Him with others. If you've ever doubted your significance or God's care, may this song help you to shift your point of view and see His gifts for all who include God in their lives.

'Lonely Dirt Road' by Dax: A Journey to Solitude and God

Dax's 'Lonely Dirt Road' is a conversation that Dax has with himself and God. Dax shares his journey of turning mental health walks into healing solitary drives. As you listen, you can almost feel the cruise, where it's just you, your thoughts, and God.  The chorus is so relatable: 'When I need space, that's where I go, a place to escape that nobody knows.' What do you do when life's pressures stack high? Do you also have a space where you can let go? That lonely dirt road that Dax sings about symbolizes solitude, but it is also an incredible opportunity for connecting with God.  Dax's honesty is raw and relatable. 'I didn't want my family to see me cry… dealing with the pressure of trying to provide.' There are times when we all put on a smile to hide how challenging situations may be. Like his father, Dax says that he finds peace on this lonely road, where challenges become opportunities to grow. This shows the core of our faith: that...

"the cost (given for us)" by HOMECOMING: Feeling the Weight of Grace

HOMECOMING's "the cost (given for us)" looks at the weight of what Jesus gave up to save humanity. The backstory that HOMECOMING wrote this song after talking about how easy it is to say "Jesus died for me" without really thinking about what that means. Like, what did it actually cost Him? Their approach wasn't to create another "thank You" song, but a song that invites us to slow down and truly feel the sacrifice He made. His sacrifice wasn't just a painful moment on a cross. It was everything. He gave up heaven. He was rejected, betrayed, beaten… and He still chose the cross for us. That kind of love doesn't make sense. But it's real. The lyrics give words to the awe we feel: "You took my place // How can it be // By your grace I'm saved." And lines like "Your blood washed me clean" and "By your stripes I'm healed" remind us of the freedom and healing that He paid for. Then comes the part that ...

"Wanna Be Like You" by One Common: Letting Go of People-Pleasing for Good

"Wanna Be Like You" by One Common is an interesting song that was born out of this duo's struggles with wanting to please people and the pressure they felt to perform. The song reminds us to stop chasing others for their approval and start chasing Jesus instead. "I'm so done tryna be someone else just to keep people's attention," they sing. It can be very exhausting to constantly pretend and perform. The song reminds us to keep our hearts and lives centered on Jesus—the only one who truly is worthy of being our role model. Not for applause. Not for attention. But because His way is the only one that brings real peace and fulfillment in our lives.  The need to please others and perform is probably a feeling that many of us know all too well — but it doesn't have to define us.  The lyrics of the song put the issue right there on the table: "Who am I tryna be, who am I tryna please? That's the question." And the answer? Ofcourse, Jesus i...
