"Heaven Come Down" by Tyler Ratcliffe: A Song Wrapped in God's Timing


"Heaven Come Down" by Tyler Ratcliffe is a song that came together in the most spontaneous, God-ordained way. Tyler and Jonathan had been trying to collaborate for months but so far hadn't been able to coordinate their schedules. While Tyler was with friends walking about the next collab, he spun a wheel of names, picked Jonathan, and just booked a flight to San Diego. What happened next felt like pure divine timing. 

Tyler Ratcliffe - Heaven Come DownThey recorded "Heaven Come Down" and then went to Light Chapel to create the supporting reels and content. While filming at Light Chapel, a couple showed up, thinking that there was a worship night scheduled, but none was planned. The couple asked if they could stay and watch, and that is when the idea came to create a Chapel Version of the song. Amazing things happen when God is in the driver's seat, and that theme also runs through the song! 

The song is a plea for Heaven to come down, take control, and provide what we need: "We've seen the ground // We've felt the drought // We asked for water // And You spilled it out." He provides, even in barren seasons. 

"Every chain is falling now // As every stronghold crashes down! // Darkness flees // the lost are found." It is God who liberates us, gives us true purpose, and shows us the way back to get back Home. Amazing things happen when we surrender to His timing and plan! 

This song is an invitation to experience God's glory. He is ready to bring renewal into your life and the world around you. Renewal starts with simple words: "We need You now to come and move! Fill this place, make us new! Spirit, move us, start right now!" Are you ready to discover what God has planned for you?

(Related scripture: Isaiah 64:1-2; Revelation 21:3; Acts 2:1-4)

"Heaven Country" by Jensen & Company: Where Faith Meets Fiddles

Jensen & Company's 'Heaven Country' features Heidi Jensen North. It's a song that bursts with an infectious Texas swing energy, with steel guitars, fiddles, and washboard rhythms that pull you into the vibe. Beneath this melodic energy is a message with a promise: heaven isn't just a destination, it's a homeland where every tear is wiped away!  Can you imagine streets where lions walk with lambs, hunger vanishes, and divisions dissolve into unity? What a contrast compared with today's world! One of the lines that stands out: "There's no divide - there's just one side // The Son is shining every day."  What if we were to start living today as citizens of that eternal country? What's stopping us? The song challenges us: "All the love that you've acquired here - it's your money // Be sure to fill your account." It's a call to invest in what truly lasts. You've never seen its glory, never heard its songs - but...

'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...

"Jesus Is His Name" by Aaron Goodhew: The Name That Changes Everything

“Jesus Is His Name” by Aaron Goodhew is a song written as a Christ-centred declaration of who God is and what He has done. The song begins by asking, “Who designed creation and called it into being?” and quickly answers by pointing our eyes “high above the heavens” and leading us to the very place “where he rests his feet.” In other words, this is worship from creation to restoration. Each verse walks through different parts of Christ’s work: parting waters, calming storms, healing lepers, restoring outcasts, setting captives free. The chorus invites the church to confess together: "He is the Lord God // Lifted up // Mighty to be praised // Sovereign King of kings // Name above all names." But most of all, He is the personal Savior “The one who paid our ransom // The one who saved a wretch like me.” The bridge crowns this declaration, calling Jesus “wonderful counsellor, mighty king and friend,” the Lion and the Lamb whose glory we cannot fully comprehend. A declaration...
