"Praise Will Rise" by Kwame Acheampong H.: Breaking Chains with Praise


Kwame Acheampong H. - Praise Will RiseKwame Acheampong H. released a song called "Praise Will Rise." It is a lively song that combines multiple music genres into a joyful celebration of faith. This song is inspired by several biblical stories, such as Paul and Silas singing in chains, the woman with the alabaster box, and the widow's offering.

Kwame uses these stories to show that true worship isn't tied to perfect moments. True worship thrives on our genuine surrender and hope. "Midnight in a prison cell // Pain in chains but I can tell // Something's rising in my soul." He emphasizes that God gives us the power to break chains and bring wholeness to our lives through praise and worship.

Kwame reminds us that praise strengthens us, "When they say I can't make it // When the storm tries to shake me // Your praise will be my victory!" There is no force that silences our worship when it is rooted in God's love. "I pour my worship out // Every fear, every doubt // At your feet I lay it down."

May this song inspire you to use worship as your response to life's trials. Let its energy and truth inspire you to lift your voice, no matter the storm, so that you too can sing, "Through tears and pain // My heart will sing again."

(Related scripture: Acts 16:25-26; Psalm 34:1; Mark 14:3-9)

"Tears of the Lamb (Radio Edit)" by Avery Stafford: Forgiven by the Cross, Made Whole

"Tears of the Lamb (Radio Edit)" by Avery Stafford retells the well-known story of Christ's sacrifice with a deep personal gratitude. A new rendition of a song that Avery first introduced at a 1993 youth rally on a humble blue cassette tape (!) with the lyrics that focus on Jesus' innocence, His willingness to suffer, and the mystery of a love that is beyond anything we are able to comprehend. Instead of dwelling only on the sorrow, Avery points us to the hope that His tears have made possible. You hear him marvel at Christ's mercy, remind us of His forgiveness even in suffering, and celebrate the healing that comes from a life that He has made whole. The message in this worship anthem, reimagined with cinematic flair, is simple (but not easy): Jesus gave everything, and there is nothing we can do or could have done to earn such an ultimate sacrifice. "With tears in Your eyes, You died for me," but most of all, the lyrics highlight redemption's triu...

"Man I Used To Be" by Dax: Half the Weight, Double the Faith

"Man I Used To Be" by Dax is a very personal song. Dax had promised himself that he wouldn't release new music until he'd stayed sober for six months, the time he needed to get his priorities straight and clear his mind. "Man I Used To Be" is the sound of his first clean breath, life with God by his side. Dax lays it bare: "Trials and tribulations, all my past trauma," he acknowledges, along with "generational curses from daddy and mama," and the "addictions that clouded my eyes." The honesty about his past struggles makes the message of this song so relatable and powerful.  The chorus is about the moment that the script was flipped, "I'm half the man I used to be." Not a broken man, but a man who has been freed from the burdens that weren't his to carry and kept him from God. "I don't ever chase, I got God," declaring that his new identity is anchored in faith. It's a shrug and a testimo...

"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....
