"Praise The Lord" by CIELØ: Where Electronic Beats Meet Devotion


"Praise The Lord" was written during a challenging time in CIELØ's life. His world felt like it was crumbling - but despite that brokenness, he felt the need to praise and thank God. Even during the hard times, God is good. "When I don't feel like praising, God lift my hands up even higher" a plea to God to help us cling to gratitude and worship when our emotions and feelings run dry.

CIELØ - Praise The LordThis song has great electronic beats, not too heavy that it would give CCM lovers a reason to skip the track, but still gives listeners a chill yet energetic summer vibe that gets your heart dancing. It's lines like "Praise Him for His mighty power // Praise Him for His endless love" that echo scripture's call to celebrate God at all times, no matter the circumstances we face. "Let everything that has breath // Praise the Lord" is a rallying cry for everyone to join in.

CIELØ aimed to make a song with a catchy melody, a good dance but chill vibe, with electronic music elements throughout it! I think everyone will agree that he did a great job with this, and made a one-of-a-kind song that beautifully combines our feelings of joy, praise, and surrender to God. If you're looking for music that lifts your spirit and, at the same time, reminds you of God's unchanging goodness, then this one is for you. Turn up the volume, let go, and let your praise rise.

"Sunlight (Storge)" by Chelsea Chaisson: Reminisce the Simpler Times

(by Jasper Tan) Feel good, light-hearted, easy listening track. That's how I find Chelsea Chaisson's new single called "Sunlight (Storge)." I was kind of curious what the word "Storge" means, so I had to look it up. According to Wikipedia, "Storge is a Greek word that refers to natural, familial affection or love, particularly the bond between parents and children, as well as among family members and close friends. It is characterized by familiarity, dependence, and loyalty, often rooted in kinship bonds and shared experiences." Sounds very familiar? Of course, it should be, because as per the description, it actually describes what Christian love is. Or should I say how God loves us as His children? Chelsea was inspired to write this song by reminiscing about her childhood, marked by simpler times spent with her cousins and their grandma.  Countless times, we always heard the saying that we all should have faith like a child. The reason for that i...

"Temptation" by Dax: Fighting Spiritual Warfare Through Faith and Prayer

Have you ever felt like the battle against temptation is relentless? In his powerful track "Temptation," Dax reminds us that every moment of resistance is a victory. He doesn't shy away from the reality that "temptations outside, knocking at my door." Instead of hiding the struggle, he exposes it. He admits that while he "won the battle last night," the war continues. In other words, spiritual discipline is a daily choice. Dax explains that temptation finds safety in an "idle mind" and when we lack purpose. But most of all, he offers a strategy for triumph: "starve my flesh, then feed my spirit with faith." So, why trade your peace of mind for fleeting pleasure? The lyrics trace our struggles back to the garden and "Adam and Eve," and also point us toward redemption.  "Down by the Riverbend // in the garden, where the snake tempted Adam and Eve, // they ate the fruit and from those seeds // grew the roots of this ...

"The Perfect Love of Christ" by John Long: Mercy That Draws Us Near

(By Jasper Tan) It's the "love month" already, and there's no other way to celebrate it best but to remember the greatest lover of all, Jesus Christ. In John Long's CCM Folk song "The Perfect Love of Christ", John emotionally sings about how overwhelming it is to be loved by Jesus. All that He did for us is something that we cannot easily replicate, yet we usually take it for granted in favor of other earthly pleasures. We always want to say that we love someone, yet we can't fully back it up with a love that is pure. Because often than not, there's still a piece of our selfishness residing in our hearts. But Jesus does not have that. His love is selfless and always puts others' welfare before Himself. For how can He still love the sinners that wronged Him? That mocked Him and took away His life? As John emotionally sings these lines, "Oh my God, how could it be? That You would love me, That You would hold, That You would take the ones t...
