"The Mountain of Yahweh" by NARROWAY: A Call to Worship


Given what's happening in the world today, it is difficult to imagine that there will be a time that all nations unite in peace. Even more challenging is trying to imagine the thrill we'll feel when this happens. That promised moment of uniting in peace, and the excitement this will bring, is the heart of "The Mountain of Yahweh," by NARROWAY. This is one of the songs on NARROWAY's latest album, a song where the artists try to picture what will happen when the Messiah returns.

NARROWAY - The Mountain of YahwehBased on biblical prophecies, the song is about how people will be streaming to Yahweh's mountain, a gathering where all will come to worship and learn His ways. Don't mistake the use of the word "all" as an indicator that this is still so far away and nearly impossible. It is a promise that is going to happen, and when it does, it will still come as a surprise to so many! "To the mountain of Yahweh go, // Where His truth and mercy flow." And just as important, the lyrics emphasize the peace that He will bring to the world, "No more war—He breaks the spear," and the world will be under His reign. 

The song reminds us that we don't need to wait until He comes again! It invites us to join this future gathering by taking action right here and now! The lyrics ask, "Are you ready to walk His path?" The message is clear: Yeshua reigns! We can follow Him today to the place where justice stays, the heart of Yahweh's ways. May we follow His ways and walk His path for us daily.

"Is Anybody There? (Psalm 27)" by Stephen M. Miller: Holding On to Grace at Heaven’s Door

Stephen M. Miller's "Is Anybody There? (Psalm 27)" comes in the quiet aftermath of the Christmas celebrations, when reflection can feel like isolation. Stephen's song isn't about polishing away his mistakes, nor does it encourage you to do so with your mistakes. Stephen shares his painful experience, "I never saw it coming Lord // It felt right but it was wrong // Family and friends have left me // But I still have you and a song."   Stephen owns the fallout of his actions, taking accountability without despair. "I said it and I did it, Lord // Broke more hearts than I'll ever know // I can't fix this, though I've tried // Don't be angry, and please don't go." His song is a prayer for God's presence and guidance. "Hear me when I call you, Lord // Don't turn your face away // Don't give up on me like others have // Come help me through this day." Stephen describes a fear that we too experience when we ...

"Fishers of Men" by Tyler Philip Ratcliffe: Dropping Your Nets and Following Without Looking Back

Jesus doesn’t call the qualified. He qualifies the called.  “Fishers of Men” by Tyler Philip Ratcliffe was written back in July of 2024. It was the first Christian folk-style song that Tyler had ever written, and he had no idea at the time that God was going to pull him in that direction. It’s a favorite among his friends and family, and God recently laid it on his heart to share it with the rest of the world.  The song draws from the ordinary moments when Jesus walked up to fishermen and tax collectors and said two words that changed everything: “Follow Me.”   What strikes you in the lyrics is the honesty. “My friends thought I was crazy, and my folks just shook their heads.” Following Jesus has always looked strange from the outside. Peter left a fishing business. Matthew walked away from a lucrative government post. Neither of these men had it all figured out, but they simply responded to a call they couldn’t ignore.  Maybe you also know that feeling. The moment ...
