"Good Are You" by whispering HOPE: When Seasons Shift, He Stands


What does it mean to worship when nothing around you feels stable? whispering HOPE tackles this question head-on in "Good Are You," a declaration rooted in scripture and fresh conviction. 

whispering HOPE - Good Are YouThe song opens with morning light and immediate recognition: God's mercy meets us exactly where we are. "When the morning breaks again // And I lift my eyes to see // Your mercy meets me where I am // You meet me faithfully." Instead of demanding that we first clean up ourselves / our lives, He meets us just as we are. In other words, His presence doesn't depend on our performance, and He loves us and is ready to guide us forward. The lyrics remind us that "When the world weighs on my heart // And I cannot find my way," His love stands unshaken - "firm and sure," and His "grace remains secure."

I love how the chorus reminds us of a simple and unshakeable truth, "Good are You, good are You // Faithful, kind, and true." No theological juggling or balancing act. Just honest recognition. The bridge also builds this confidence: "Your love is more than I can see // Your grace keeps pouring over me." Even when hope feels weak, His "grace keeps pouring over me." 

If there is only one message that you take away from this song, may it be that God's goodness isn't seasonal! Our God never fails and never moves.

(Related scripture: Psalm 100:5; Psalm 107:1; James 1:17; Lamentations 3:22-23; Psalm 145:8-9)

"Holy (In The Valley)" by Caleb Andrew: Finding His Greatness in the Valley

What if worship wasn't just for mountaintop moments? Caleb Andrew's debut single, "Holy (In The Valley)," addresses this very question. Caleb shared that this song has been in the making for 10 years. What started as a chorus and bridge written during an intense encounter with God's presence has since grown into an anthem for his life.  God's holiness doesn't fade when our life grows heavy! In other words, our God not only meets us in triumph, He also walks with us through uncertainty. The lyrics declare, "You are holy // In the valley // You are holy," turning our gaze from circumstance to Him, our Lord. When Caleb sings, "There in my weakness // You see greatness," he captures the heart of persevering faith. This song empowers you to choose to worship Him, even before a breakthrough. The lyrics have become Caleb's daily reminder: "will you let trials silence your song, or will you sing anyway?" The bridge commands cour...

"Dancing On Water" by Mary Oz: When grief has no power over Hope

(by Jasper Tan) I have always been a huge admirer of Mary Oz's music. Since the moment I discovered her songs, without fail, I've always made it a point to add them to my playlists. If there was one CCM artist from the Philippines who deserves to be heard on a global scale, then my vote belongs to Mary.  Her latest single, "Dancing On Water" (which is a part of her forthcoming album), is a pure acoustic folk/rock song that talks about breakthroughs from grief. As Mary shares, "Grief can swallow you whole, but it's not a life sentence. The morning will come, and with it, Joy." This is a very empowering statement that seeks to inspire her listeners to take courage, rejoice, leave the sadness behind, and just conquer their fears.  What I love about Mary's songwriting is her deep metaphorical lyricism that makes her songs stand out among the clutter of songs in this age of digital music. You'll definitely know that her songs are very well thought of...

“We Worship You I AM”, Doyin Teru – Worship in Spirit and Truth

"We Worship You I AM" by Doyin Teru is a relatively simple song with a massive vision and message behind it. The song was born in a moment of prayer. In Bolaji Teru's own words: "Few minutes into the prayers, I knelt down on my knees with the consciousness that God is present and must be revered. In a moment, tears began to flow from my eyes as I heard the song in my spirit as if it's being sung by thousands of others. So I joined them to sing the song and right after, took my phone, recorded the song and gradually began to develop and produced it." In other words, this isn't just another worship track; it's an invitation to join in with a heavenly chorus.  The song repeats a few core phrases: "We worship Your Majesty," "We worship Your Royalty," and the declaration, "We worship You, I AM." Instead of crowding the song with many words, it leans on the weight of God's revealed name  —  "I AM," the Etern...
