"No Wonder" by Chris Sarver: A Call to Hope and Healing


The seed for the song “No Wonder” by Chris Sarver was “planted” during a conversation with a friend about Psalm 16. That Scripture reminded Chris that there is fullness of joy in His presence. This led to writing a song about the countless reasons we can rejoice when we know God and live in His presence.

Chris Sarver - No Wonder“No wonder my heart is glad” underlines the joy we feel when we realize that every trial is there to shape us and take us forward in His plan. He promises that our cup never runs dry in His presence. He accepts us, even when the people closest to us seem to hold us at a distance. We don’t have to wear ourselves out striving to measure up, because if we are in His plan, then even our doubts become a place where He meets us.

The lyrics emphasize that even in the dark we are not alone. He frees us from the burdens of our past and turns our vulnerability into hopeful certainty. He is there with His comfort, His guidance, and His counsel, which is always fair and right. The song moves us beyond a plea for protection and invites us to see who God really is. There are endless reasons for our hearts to be glad, because He is the source of ultimate joy, protection, and inheritance.

May this song invite you to surrender and completely trust God. In His presence you will find assurance, wise counsel, and the promise of “pleasures forevermore” at His right hand, both now and in eternity.

The following scriptures are related: Psalm 16:11, 2 Corinthians 3:17, and Philippians 4:6–7.

Bryan & Katie Torwalt - Miracle In The Works (CCM)

Bryan & Katie Torwalt has released a Christian Contemporary Music (CCM) track called Miracle In The Works. LYRICS: Some may say it’s hopeless They must have never met my God  Some may say it’s over But it was finished on the cross Some may say it’s broken But the Healer’s in the room  Some may say it’s hopeless But I know    God’s about to move...   There’s a miracle in the works I can feel it There’s revival in the church I believe it   Some may see an ocean But He’s made a highway through Some may see a mountain  But we’ve seen a mountain move Some may see a graveyard But we’ve seen His empty tomb Some may see a battle But I know   Reignite us, reawaken Breath of God, come breathe again Like the dry bones started shaking All that died will live again  Oh the miracle You’re making The beginning not the end Eternity is waiting  To see Your church alive again   You are my miracle Jesus You are my miracle   #BryanandKatieTorw...
