"Brand New Day (20th Anniversary Edition)" by Thoughts And Notions: How Faith Rewrites Your Story


"Brand New Day (20th Anniversary Edition)" by Thoughts And Notions is a revamped song for anyone who is feeling weighed down, looking for renewed hope, or just needs a fresh start. The band reunited after years, made changes to their signature sound, and are releasing new versions of their songs. The result is a song that feels like an old friend who is reaching out in tough times and reminding us that a new morning is on the horizon no matter how dark the night was. The original version of this song was released in 2006, an uncertain time in the Philippines, and it really speaks to the heart (both then and now) with lines like "I am dreaming of a better tomorrow // Where there will be no more sorrow." Just look around! This desire is just as relevant today as it was in 2006. It is a desire that can affect our actions through prayer and how we treat others. The lyrics also share a promise and encouragement that healing is on the horizon. 

Thoughts And Notions - Brand New Day (20th Anniversary Edition)The lyrics encourage us to hand over our brokenness to God, search for meaning in God, and growing our faith fill the gaps: "For this heart has a gaping hole // And catch me when I fall // In your arms is where I lay." We may trust that God's love will lifts us up and pulls us through, day after (difficult) day. This is the gentle nudge that comes back in each verse of the song, … trust, lay your burdens down, and believe that tomorrow holds something beautiful. 

This song is a beautiful and heartfelt reminder that faith always creates new possibilities and following Jesus really does changes your life. So, go ahead and turn up the volume, and let Thoughts And Notions lead you into your own brand new day.

(Related scripture: Lamentations 3:22-23; 2 Corinthians 5:17; Jeremiah 29:11)

"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...

Vertical Worship - Blessed (CCM)

Vertical Worship has released a Christian Contemporary Music (CCM) track called Blessed. The Beatitudes serve as the inspiration for this new track. Quoting Vertical Worship: “The first line of the sermon on the mount, ‘Blessed are the poor in Spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven’ are words that we may be familiar with, but hold a profound invitation from Jesus. It is not those who have it all figured out, or have all the answers that will know more of His kingdom, but rather those who recognize their need of Him. And more of Him means more of His rule, His reign in my life. His law is love and He comes near with mercy.” They continued, “So, quite simply, that’s where the song started, from a place of remembering, a place of trust that when we turn to Jesus, we gain more of Him. And more of Him means more of His presence, His peace, His love. For what does it matter to gain the whole world, but forfeit our soul? What a gift that we get to at any moment recognize our deep need fo...
