"Hands in the Air" by Josh Snyder Music: Freedom Through Worship


"Hands in the Air" by Josh Snyder Music is a high-energy song (CEDM genre) that captures the moment of full surrender, shaking off feelings of fear, and lifting our hands in worship and victory for our Lord and Savior. The song was inspired by times of spiritual battles and moments of doubt and makes it clear that you have the power to choose trust over fear, a freedom that nobody can take away from you! 

Josh Snyder Music - Hands in the AirThe first line of the song, "This life, so fragile right now," describes the inner struggles that we often try to hide. And, in the same breath, Josh declares, "Took my fears, that's it I surrender. My God, you are my defender!" What a powerful invitation to let go of our pride, fear, and confusion and lift up our hands in worship! And Josh makes the package even more complete by blending his message with punchy synths. 

The chorus, "Let me see, let me see your hands in the air!" not only encourages us to celebrate, but it also reminds us that Christ is the only path to freedom. Enjoy the vibe while dancing and singing "Only by Your grace can I make it through" and "Break our chains, receive our praise." Our Lord deserves all the praise! "All for You… Share the news. This is all for You!"

May this song have you dancing with "Hands in the Air" and declaring His goodness. Don't miss it!

(Related scripture: Psalm 149:3; Isaiah 41:10; Romans 12:1)

"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 ...

"What A Savior" by Will & Jacinta Ellis and Crossing Life Worship: Never Growing Numb to Grace

Have you ever grown numb to a miracle?  “What A Savior” by Will & Jacinta Ellis and Crossing Life Worship began as a chorus in a co-write, before it took on a life of its own. Will & Jacinta wanted something rich and almost hymn-like, a bold declaration of who Jesus is — not a tired restatement, but a fresh look. They never wanted to grow “used to” what Jesus accomplished, so they wrote about holding on to Him in every season, regardless of whether it’s calm or chaotic.  The opening lines start with the redemption through Jesus’ blood: “The precious fount, that cleansing flow, the Son of God poured out for all.” That’s the blood that Jesus spilled for you. The song moves from the cleansing through His blood to the result: “The debt I owed and all sin’s claims were buried with You in the grave.” Your debt. Buried. Gone.  Here’s where it gets even more personal. Romans 5:8 says, “God shows his love for us in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.” ...

"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 ...
