"Breath Over Me" by OCILIO: Finding Freedom Through His Holy Breath


"Breath Over Me" by OCILIO is a deep house track, with lyrics that offer hope and healing for anyone who's feeling overwhelmed by life. When can feel so overwhelmed that it can literally feel hard to breathe. Look up to God, let Him breathe over you, feel that breakthrough moment when fresh air fills your lungs again. 

OCILIO - Breath over MeThe song reminds me of a Bible passage: "But those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint." (Isaiah 40:31). This is the kind of renewal that God brings to our lives! 

The pulsing basslines and atmospheric tones try to reflect the renewal that God brings us, relieving us from our struggle and leading us to freedom. "I've been walking through the fire, feeling the heat // Like I'm drifting farther from who I'm meant to be." It's so relatable and real. It invites us to look to call out to God for help, "Come and breathe life over me." God heals and restores, "Let Your love set me free." 

Asking God to help also requires us to let go and surrender, "I'm letting go of all the chains that I chose," to follow His direction, and to let God take control. A prayer to Him to, "Renew my mind, restore my soul // Breathe Your life, make me whole." 

This song is an experience that is designed to move your heart and mind closer to true freedom that can only be found in God. Go ahead, press play, and be reminded that God is with you every step of the way.

(Related scripture: Isaiah 40:31; Ezekiel 37:9-10; Psalm 51:10-12)

"The List Goes On (Jordan's Song)" by Chris Sarver: Finding Freedom in Faith

Have you ever felt the weight of the past (old chains) even after you're free? Chris Sarver's "The List Goes On (Jordan's Song)" addresses this specific struggle. Chris shared the following: "Like many of you, I have been part of text thread groups whose main purpose is for encouragement and prayer. … About four years ago, in one of those men's groups, my friend from church, Jordan Hanks, shared a message you can see in the picture. It was simple. He wrote about how sometimes we feel the old weight we carried before Jesus lifted it. And when that weight tries to creep back in, he reminds himself of the names Jesus has earned in his life. He is a Healer." In other words, when shame whispers lies, we must speak truth louder. The lyrics confess, "The chains are gone, sometimes I still find that I can feel their weight." Instead of hiding this feeling, Chris Sarver turns it into a moment of worship. He calls out names that Jesus has earned in...

"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...

"Praise You In The Morning" by Taylor Pride: Waking up to the sound of Worship

(by Jasper Tan) Taylor Pride's latest single, "Praise You In The Morning" is an uplifting song that is a powerful reminder of God's faithfulness in different seasons and circumstances. The song is an acknowledgement that even if we are facing hardships and difficulties, we should still continue to praise God, for he is our provider and protector. And that he has promised to redeem us in his perfect time. The song follows an established style of Taylor's "heart-on-your-sleeve" type of worship song, drawing inspiration for this song's music from the likes of Cody Carnes and Phil Wickham's songs, the likes of which are simple with an easy-to-sing chorus layered by joyful sounds. The lyrics serve as a prayer for those in the "desert seasons," suggesting that praise is a choice made even in times of uncertainty with our faith. The song uses the transition from night to day as a metaphor for moving from weeping to hope. It is a modern worship...
