"I Will Lift My Voice" by Nicole Spowart: Seeking God’s Face Through Worship


Nicole Spowart's "I Will Lift My Voice" is a powerful song about longing to know God more intimately. With lyrics like "I wanna know You more" and "Show me Your glory Lord," the song reflects the heart's cry that many have to be closer with the Father, and at the same time it offers help when we struggle to seek His presence above all else. The song is an invitation to lift our voices in praise, magnify His name, and glorify Him alone, declaring, "It's Your face I seek!" Some may say, "I wish this were me," and the beauty is that this change of heart is within our reach with His help.

Nicole Spowart - I will Lift My VoiceThere is an interesting backstory behind this song. Nicole wrote it after the radical transformation of her heart and life. She was writing and crying out in her heart to know Him more. When the song was recorded and delivered over the internet, a physical healing occurred. Nicole's husband had placed his hand on a BBQ the day before, and it blistered. When the song came through, they were healed!! Nicole truly believes that this song has the touch of heaven—and perhaps a healing anointing as well. 

May this song help to create an atmosphere of worship in your heart that invites you into God's presence and leads you closer to His heart. He promises that your yearning for intimacy with Him will not go unanswered and that He will encourage you in your walk.

(Related scripture: Psalm 29:2; Exodus 33:13; James 5:16)

"King, Lamb, Lion" by Ben Jero & Graham Guy: When the World Runs Dry

What happens when the world just isn’t enough?  In early 2025, Graham Guy was reading Revelation chapter 4. The picture of heaven gathered around the throne — declaring God holy and worthy of praise — planted the seed for this song. Three words surfaced from that moment: “King, Lamb, Lion.” Graham sent them to Ben Jero, and across a string of FaceTime calls between South Carolina and California, the song “King, Lamb, Lion” took shape.  The opening verse doesn’t pretend. “I’ve tried this world, but it won’t fill me,” the lyric admits, before landing at surrender: “My life laid down, at your feet.” That’s honest territory. Most of us have chased something we thought would satisfy, only to find ourselves empty-handed. The song changes our focus to lasting results. “The old is gone, the new has come,” it declares, repeating a promise found in 2 Corinthians 5:17: “If anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old has passed away; behold, the new has come.” Notice what that ...

"Stand By Me" by Daniel Aranda: Finding Steadiness in Life's Storms

Who’s standing with you in the storm? “Stand By Me” by Daniel Aranda is an amazing rendition of a hymn written by Charles Albert Tindley in 1905. Tindley was the son of a former slave, a man who knew what it meant to need help that wasn’t guaranteed. He didn’t write from comfort. He wrote from the middle of a fight, and that’s exactly why the song is still so relevant and cherished by many today. Daniel Aranda’s recording brings gospel legends Terry Blackwood and Charlie McCoy into that same lineage, carrying Tindley’s plea forward into a new generation.  The lyrics move through life’s troubles, one verse at a time. “When the storms of life are raging, stand by me”  — that’s not poetic exaggeration. Tindley’s first verse is about a ship tossed on open water, powerless against the waves. Then verses about failing strength, friends who misunderstand your best efforts, persecution, and the song ends with a verse about old age creeping toward “chilly Jordan.” Each of the verses names ...

"Paper Lantern Heart" by MK Green: When God Lights a Fire You Can't Contain

What happens when God lights a fire in you?  Some fires refuse to stay hidden. MK Green wrote “Paper Lantern Heart” around that exact truth, inspired by Jeremiah 20:9, where the prophet admits that he tried to stop preaching but simply couldn’t. The Word burned inside him “like a fire shut up in my bones.” Green’s lyrics echo that same struggle: “Behind the bones inside my chest there burns a paper heart.” Cold turns to burning. Silence turns to song. “I was cold as stone until You lit a spark,” the chorus declares, and something about that image sticks with you long after the music fades.  Here’s the question worth pondering: What do you do when God ignites something in you that won’t stay quiet?  Jeremiah tried holding it in, and that exhausted him. “There is in my heart as it were a burning fire shut up in my bones, and I am weary with holding it in, and I cannot” (Jeremiah 20:9). That weariness sounds familiar, doesn’t it? Maybe you’ve felt the nudge to speak up, ...
