"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 Of All Nations" by Ezra Worship Initiative: Sing Today What Heaven Will Sing Forever

Your worship today echoes eternity. Ezra Worship Initiative trains young worship leaders through a ten-week, seminary-based internship. Their songwriters learn Scripture first and melody second. You can hear this in their latest release, “King Of All Nations,” a song written for congregations to sing. The song opens as a prayer: “May Your Name be proclaimed in all creation.” Who does the proclaiming? The Church does. The second verse asks God to “send Your Church to go and tell the gospel story,” which puts all who sing this right inside the request. Who on your street has never heard His name from you? Then the chorus lifts the roof: “All the honor, voices lifted to the King.” Worship here is not a performance. It is sung as a community, young and old, a multigenerational voice of praise. The bridge looks ahead. “All will come, and all will bow.” John saw the same moment: “a great multitude that no one could number, from every nation, from all tribes and peoples and languages, stan...

"Man of Sorrows" by Lauren Gruwell: Jesus Feels Your Pain With You

Jesus knows your pain before you speak it. Lauren Gruwell knows what it is when Jesus feels unreachable. Trauma in her childhood left her with deep sorrow, and for years Jesus seemed too far away. She didn’t think she was good enough to come near Him. Are you also familiar with that feeling? Do you sit in the dark, tears falling, and wonder: “… no one knows but if they did, would they care?” Lauren shares: “It wasn’t until He changed me, that I realized that HE has felt all the pain I’ve ever felt, and that He loves me regardless.” The Savior that she thought she couldn’t approach had already walked her road. This song, “Man of Sorrows”, grew from that discovery, and it carries a promise for anyone who hurts: “And all of my hurt, He felt it first…” . Jesus hurts right beside you. In Isaiah 53:3, we read that He was “a man of sorrows and acquainted with grief.” Then comes the line that changes everything: “Surely he has borne our griefs and carried our sorrows.” Our griefs. Our sorrow...

"My Side" by Dan Read: Proof That God Never Leaves Your Side

You can ask God the hard questions. Dan Read doesn’t tiptoe around hard questions. His song, “My Side”, opens with a whole bunch of questions: “Where is the rudder that keeps me afloat?” “Where is the anchor when I know I shouldn’t go?” “Where is the sail that guides me home?” Have you ever asked God something that blunt? Dan also admits what he can’t see. “I don’t know what the future holds.” “I don’t know why we hurt sometimes.” No tidy answers follow. Every one of these questions lands in the same place: “I look to the heavens.” Notice what he does with his doubt. He lifts it instead of hiding it. The writer of the book of Hebrews (we don’t know who the author was) gives that habit a solid footing: “We have this as a sure and steadfast anchor of the soul.” In other words, waves still roll, and our Anchor holds anyway. The song makes this personal. Dan sings that he has “heard stories about the peace that you bring” and heard of God’s power in the songs we sing. But seeing it ...
