"Wait" by Reflect Church: Finding Worship in Patience


"Wait" by Reflect Church is about coming back to the absolute basics of waiting on God and how challenging that can be, possibly even challenging our faith. The song invites us to slow down and trust in God's timing and ask God to help push us past the awkwardness, impatience, and distraction that we feel when we are still. 

Reflect Church - WaitSomething very interesting happens in the waiting… You begin to become more and more aware of God's presence and greatness. This stage is where faith grows, because you get a better sense of how much God really loves you, how much He's for you, and what He is already doing in your life. There are blessings in the waiting, although we may not always see it that way. 

The repetitive assurance in the lyrics, "We're going to wait on you," is all about creating a genuine commitment in our hearts and minds, a commitment that helps to cut through the noise of everyday distractions. The verses honor titles like Creator, Forgiver, Redeemer, and Healer, reminding us of God's multifaceted love and that there is never a reason to hold back our praises. 

"We're not going to wait for the rocks to cry // Our lips will fill with praise // We're not going to wait till the end of time // You're worthy of it all // We're not going to hide our hearts from you // We're holding nothing back // We're not going to miss a moment's praise // You're worthy of it all." God is truly worthy of all our adoration. 

The key message of this song is that it's in the stillness that we really may discover God's greatness and love, and this discovery can change our mindset from expectation to awe-filled worship. May this song encourage you to embrace the stillness and rediscover His greatness and love for you.

(Related scripture: Isaiah 40:31; Psalm 27:14; Revelation 4:11)

"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...

"Sunlight (Storge)" by Chelsea Chaisson: Reminisce the Simpler Times

(by Jasper Tan) Feel good, light-hearted, easy listening track. That's how I find Chelsea Chaisson's new single called "Sunlight (Storge)." I was kind of curious what the word "Storge" means, so I had to look it up. According to Wikipedia, "Storge is a Greek word that refers to natural, familial affection or love, particularly the bond between parents and children, as well as among family members and close friends. It is characterized by familiarity, dependence, and loyalty, often rooted in kinship bonds and shared experiences." Sounds very familiar? Of course, it should be, because as per the description, it actually describes what Christian love is. Or should I say how God loves us as His children? Chelsea was inspired to write this song by reminiscing about her childhood, marked by simpler times spent with her cousins and their grandma.  Countless times, we always heard the saying that we all should have faith like a child. The reason for that i...

"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...
