"Savior" by Thoughts And Notions: Celebrating 20 Years of Worship


Thoughts And Notions' 20th Anniversary Edition of "Savior" is a heartfelt comeback that links the past with the present with a new recording of earlier work. And… as expected with all of the experience they gained during those 20 years, their artistic maturity can be heard in this updated rendition for a new generation. Savior was their very first praise and worship song. It was initially recorded in 2004 for their first album, "In Awe of His Amazing Love," a fundraising project for their church.

Thoughts And Notions - Savior (20th Anniversary Edition)The lyrics are very relatable for anyone who's ever felt "shaken, broken, failing" or lost in life's chaos. "You're my answer, my lord and founder," they sing—a reminder that Jesus is the ultimate anchor and stronghold in life.

The chorus, "Lord Jesus my savior / You came and became my redeemer / I was lost but you saved me," hope for anyone who feels they're drowning in confusion. As the song continues, it shifts to celebration: "There is nothing more I need in my life / Now I want to celebrate this life with you." It invites you to replace despair with devotion and embrace a life lived fully for God.

With its fresh yet nostalgic vibe, this song points you to the One who is always there, ready to lead you home, no matter how far you've wandered.

(Related scripture: Psalm 40:2; John 14:6; Romans 5:8)

'Lonely Dirt Road' by Dax: A Journey to Solitude and God

Dax's 'Lonely Dirt Road' is a conversation that Dax has with himself and God. Dax shares his journey of turning mental health walks into healing solitary drives. As you listen, you can almost feel the cruise, where it's just you, your thoughts, and God.  The chorus is so relatable: 'When I need space, that's where I go, a place to escape that nobody knows.' What do you do when life's pressures stack high? Do you also have a space where you can let go? That lonely dirt road that Dax sings about symbolizes solitude, but it is also an incredible opportunity for connecting with God.  Dax's honesty is raw and relatable. 'I didn't want my family to see me cry… dealing with the pressure of trying to provide.' There are times when we all put on a smile to hide how challenging situations may be. Like his father, Dax says that he finds peace on this lonely road, where challenges become opportunities to grow. This shows the core of our faith: that...

"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...
