"Giver of All Things Good" by Galen Crew: The Unchanging Source of Every Gift


What if every good thing in your life leads back to a single, unchanging source? That's exactly the truth Galen Crew and co-writer Jesse Reeves share with their song "Giver of All Things Good." They ask you to take a closer look at the incredible gifts you have received in your life. It's a reminder that "Every good and perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of the heavenly lights, who does not change." - James 1:17 (NIV)

Galen Crew - Giver of All Things GoodIn a world where everything is constantly changing. Whatever was sure yesterday can change in the blink of an eye. Political unrest, acts of nature, the list goes on... but God remains the same. "You never change // Your glory shines // No shadow remains // All that I have // Comes from above." Everything from the breath in our lungs to the grace that refines and purifies us comes from our Father. Galen acknowledges that all we have is "made by your hands." So, how can we best respond? Galen has that answer... it's with wholehearted devotion. "All of my worship all my praise // All of my life lived for your name."

Listen closely to the lyrics, and take a moment to read the recommended scriptures. What stands out is the fact that the focus is on relationship over religion. It's about our relationship with the Father. It is through our relationship with Him that He places "an eternal spring" in our hearts and shapes us. It's personal. It's powerful.

Instead of chasing fleeting blessings, Galen points us to the origin: "Everything perfect comes from you." May this song help you to realize that "Every breath inside my lungs // Is a gift sent from above." May your response be an offering of continuous devotion.

(Related scripture: James 1:17; Malachi 3:6; Psalm 103:2)

"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...
