Into You – Tony Robert Allen: Drawn by Unfailing Love


Tony Robert Allen's latest single "Into You" is a synth-pop laden CCM track that hooks us with its catchy melody and danceable tune. On surface, one might mistake the song as your traditional pop song, but taking a deeper dive into the lyrics will allow you to appreciate the song more and realize that it's more than just your traditional pop song. And that's the beauty of songs like these. 

Tony Robert Allen - Into YouIn a world where pop music's lyrics has fallen off to shallow meanings, buoyed only by the well composed music, "Into You" is a breath of fresh air. Because not only are we hooked with the synth-pop sensibilities of the music, but we are also drawn to the overall message of the song. And like how our Christian life sometimes drifts apart from God, the song has a magnetic way of pulling us back into God's gravity. That is what the song seeks to remind us. 

We can run as far away from God as we can. Or we can choose to shut him off. But once we recognize his love and have it affect us deeply, we will always be drawn back to him. God's love for us is inescapable. It will always be magnetic. And Tony couldn't have expressed it better with this song. "Into You" proves that Christian Music can be fun. And we do have a choice when it comes to engaging with positive and inspiring pop music. And we look no further than tuning in to "Into You."

(Related scripture: Jeremiah 31:3; Philippians 4:7; John 17:21)

"Soon and Very Soon" by Robby Robinson: Why This Classic Still Hits Like the First Time

What if one song could carry the weight of every hardship you've ever faced, and still leave you smiling? That's exactly what Andraé Crouch accomplished in 1978 when he wrote "Soon and Very Soon," and this new recording by Robby Robinson, Tony Galla, and Ray Reynolds makes sure you feel every bit of it.  The song is based on Revelation 21:3–4, reminding us of what's coming: no more crying, no more dying, just the glorious moment we finally see the King. Simple words, but it carries a profound promise.  Crouch was honest about the journey. There are "rivers we must cross" and "mountains we must climb." He emphasizes the truth that faith doesn't erase our struggles — it sustains us through them. God, as the lyrics remind us, will "supply all the strength that we need."   Featuring powerhouse vocalists Tony Galla and Ray Reynolds, Robinson blends this classic gospel energy with a rich, Hammond-organ-driven groove. Rather than a slow...

"Holy Forever" by Stephanie Staples: When Music Becomes an Offering

(by Jasper Tan) Stephanie Staples has just recently released her own rendition of Chris Tomlin’s recent critically acclaimed worship song “Holy Forever”. For this version, Stephanie transforms this song into a soulful and reverent version of this classic hit. While Tomlin’s version is more grandiose and soaring, Stephanie’s version feels more grounded and meditative. Leaning on her more emotive expression of the song, this version offers an alternative listen to a song that is well loved by this generation of Christian worshippers. Just like Tomlin’s original version, "Holy Forever" themes gives focus on eternal worship and the unchanging dominion of Jesus Christ over us. The song gives reverence to the value and the importance of having Jesus in our life. Our continued reverence and submission to him is crucial in our quest to know him more and understand how his presence in our life transforms us to become better Christians. Foremost to this is accepting the fact that Jesus...

"Going Outta My Mind" by Fisher of Men: He Challenges You to Stop Living for Yourself

(by Jasper Tan) "Going Outta My Mind" by Fisher of Men is a modern indie pop CCM song that focuses on the suffocating nature of being self-centered, rather than being freed by the truth of God's love. With the lines "Yeah I've been livin' in my head too long, spinnin' every little worry like a broken song," it quickly establishes our tendency to dwell on our problems. And once we get in too deep with it, we more often than not get drowned by the darkness it brings. These intrusive thoughts are not healthy for us. And the only way to break free from these thoughts is to acknowledge and receive God's love, and place your problems in His care.  A simple "tap" by Jesus is all that it takes to be set free from this cycle of darkness. But the question is, are we ready to acknowledge it and let go? Jesus is always there ready to offer His help. He's always there ready to offer His friendship. Are we ready to receive it? Are we ready for H...
