"Always" by Angelo Vivo: Rooted in Faith, Wrapped in Grace


Angelo Vivo's "Always" is a beautiful and inspiring song. The song was co-written together with two talented songwriters from the San Francisco Bay Area, Savannah and Abraham. The lyrics were inspired by Isaiah 41:10, where we can read God's promise to all, "So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand." 

Angelo Vivo - AlwaysThe verses capture the intimate connection that God offers us, describing it as "an endless embrace" and "a love that never fades." His promise gives a hint of the kind of comfort we may find in Him, a feeling of comfort and safety that feels like home, a peace that is so profound that nothing can shake it. Everyone that has invited God to be an active part of their lives knows, "It's simple, He's blessing me." It highlights that faith isn't complicated when you recognize that He is constantly taking care of you. His comfort is for all who accept Him as their Lord and Savior, and you too may experience that "always" means that His presence is eternal, guiding and surrounding you no matter what storms you may face in life.

May this song encourage you to invite God to lead you on your journey, whether you're just beginning or have been walking His path for years. The lyrics are a reminder to live boldly in faith and be anchored in His love.

"Your Love" by Kevin Winebarger - When Mercy Becomes Your Identity

Kevin Winebarger teamed up with Joshua Frerichs and Benji Cowart to create this beautiful song. "Your Love" tackles that discouraging voice we all hear from time to time, the one that whispers that we're not enough and that we are defined by our past. "Once a liar, always a liar," and all kinds of variations along this same line of thought. This song isn't about wallowing in shame. "Your Love" is a celebration of the grace that changes everything.  The opening lines hit hard: "I could believe that I'm not enough // It's clear to see I don't measure up." Yep, we've all been there! But this isn't how God want us to be defined… He loved us first! "It's just what You've done // Because of Your love." That's the heart of everything.  Kevin places the change the God brings into perspective, "I could believe that my mistakes // Will follow me down into the grave // But I'm not who I was....

'Praise You Anywhere' by Brandon Lake is a powerful anthem that encourages us to turn to praise in every season of life. No matter the circumstances we face, choosing to praise God will shift our perspective and ignite faith within us. The lyrics of the song remind us that in the midst of darkness, fire, and challenges, we can dance, sing, and praise God.

The song emphasizes the power of praising God in the highest, acknowledging His worthiness of all our praise. Brandon Lake's heartfelt message resonates with the reality that there are times when we find ourselves in prisons and battles. However, even in those moments, we can cry out to heaven, stand firm, and worship with our hands held high. The song encourages us to trust that God will bring us through, and in response, we will praise Him anywhere. The bridge of the song beautifully highlights God's faith...

"Listen to Our Hearts" by Avery Stafford: When Words Fall Short of Worship

Have you ever felt something that is so profound that you can't find the right words to describe it? How do you explain a love "that goes from east to west and runs as deep as it is wide" ? How do you describe something as simple as the flavor of a strawberry? That's the beautiful tension that Avery Stafford sings about in his cover of the song "Listen To Our Hearts."  "Listen To Our Hearts" is a classic praise and worship song written by Geoff Moore and Steven Curtis Chapman. Avery Stafford recorded it for his album "Undignified" in 2004, after discussing it with a friend following a worship concert. His friend was impressed by the jazz-influenced version of this beloved song and encouraged Avery to consider recording it. This recording features Tony Bolivar (saxophone). Until now, "Listen To Our Hearts" had never been released to radio.  The lyrics are about the moment when our words fall short, when even "a thousand year...
