"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)

"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...
