"Praise" by Julia Igwe is a song that came from a place of gratitude. Julia shares, "I'm unashamed of what God has done and is doing in my life and everything He has brought me through. I want listeners to feel the hope that I feel."
The lyrics are filled with a joyful energy: "I'm kicking both my feet up // Oh baby cause I feel alive." Joy and freedom that are anchored in His goodness and mercy. Our God loves us and changes us, "He put the light back in my eyes // He made it turn to day from night." We are so blessed that he is always within our reach, despite our actions. All we need to do is invite Him into our lives and take His lead. The heart of this song is beautifully captured with these lines: "Oh yes I'm gonna praise right before You // Oh yes I'm gonna shout it from the mountain tops." That bold commitment to worship grows as we recognize His unchanging nature through every high and low in our lives.
"Holding on cause You're my peace of mind // Holding on to Who gives sight to blind," reflecting the certainty that we want to have in our lives! May this song invite you to trust and celebrate Him. May it encourage you, boost your faith, and bring you to your feet as you sing your praises to Him.
