"The Good" by Jensen & Company: A Heartbeat In Me And You


Jensen & Company - The Good

Can His goodness hold you when you stumble?

Picture the wind that picks up, the sun dropping below the horizon, and a darkness that creeps into every corner. That’s the opening image of “The Good” by Jensen & Company, a picture of ordinary life. Heidi Jensen North wrote this song to capture something rare: angelic intervention and the hearts of everyday people working together to bring even more love and compassion into the world! You don’t need wings to do that. You just need to show up. 

The chorus repeats: “God is the good — the light the way.” That’s not a general idea or a theory. It’s a heartbeat. Heidi sings, He’s “the heart that beats in me and you.” That makes it personal, and it’s something that we can use daily to make the world around us a better place. 
 
The song connects directly to Psalm 34:8: “Oh, taste and see that the LORD is good! Blessed is the man who takes refuge in him!” Tasting means experiencing, not just believing from a distance. Have you tasted His goodness this week, or did you just hear about it secondhand? What can you do today to taste His goodness?
 
Life will still bring valleys, and rivers will still rage. But look at what the song shares: “we may stumble, but never break, if His love is the road we take.” Stumbling isn’t failure — it’s proof that you’re still walking. That’s the road to choose today. Let His goodness meet you in the ordinary moments, the tired mornings, the uncertain nights. 
 
Give “The Good” a listen and let it remind you who’s holding the flow of every river, every peak, and every breath you take. “God is the good in everything.”

(Related scripture: Psalm 34:8; Lamentations 3:22-23; Psalm 46:1)

"King, Lamb, Lion" by Ben Jero & Graham Guy: When the World Runs Dry

What happens when the world just isn’t enough?  In early 2025, Graham Guy was reading Revelation chapter 4. The picture of heaven gathered around the throne — declaring God holy and worthy of praise — planted the seed for this song. Three words surfaced from that moment: “King, Lamb, Lion.” Graham sent them to Ben Jero, and across a string of FaceTime calls between South Carolina and California, the song “King, Lamb, Lion” took shape.  The opening verse doesn’t pretend. “I’ve tried this world, but it won’t fill me,” the lyric admits, before landing at surrender: “My life laid down, at your feet.” That’s honest territory. Most of us have chased something we thought would satisfy, only to find ourselves empty-handed. The song changes our focus to lasting results. “The old is gone, the new has come,” it declares, repeating a promise found in 2 Corinthians 5:17: “If anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old has passed away; behold, the new has come.” Notice what that ...

"Stand By Me" by Daniel Aranda: Finding Steadiness in Life's Storms

Who’s standing with you in the storm? “Stand By Me” by Daniel Aranda is an amazing rendition of a hymn written by Charles Albert Tindley in 1905. Tindley was the son of a former slave, a man who knew what it meant to need help that wasn’t guaranteed. He didn’t write from comfort. He wrote from the middle of a fight, and that’s exactly why the song is still so relevant and cherished by many today. Daniel Aranda’s recording brings gospel legends Terry Blackwood and Charlie McCoy into that same lineage, carrying Tindley’s plea forward into a new generation.  The lyrics move through life’s troubles, one verse at a time. “When the storms of life are raging, stand by me”  — that’s not poetic exaggeration. Tindley’s first verse is about a ship tossed on open water, powerless against the waves. Then verses about failing strength, friends who misunderstand your best efforts, persecution, and the song ends with a verse about old age creeping toward “chilly Jordan.” Each of the verses names ...

"Paper Lantern Heart" by MK Green: When God Lights a Fire You Can't Contain

What happens when God lights a fire in you?  Some fires refuse to stay hidden. MK Green wrote “Paper Lantern Heart” around that exact truth, inspired by Jeremiah 20:9, where the prophet admits that he tried to stop preaching but simply couldn’t. The Word burned inside him “like a fire shut up in my bones.” Green’s lyrics echo that same struggle: “Behind the bones inside my chest there burns a paper heart.” Cold turns to burning. Silence turns to song. “I was cold as stone until You lit a spark,” the chorus declares, and something about that image sticks with you long after the music fades.  Here’s the question worth pondering: What do you do when God ignites something in you that won’t stay quiet?  Jeremiah tried holding it in, and that exhausted him. “There is in my heart as it were a burning fire shut up in my bones, and I am weary with holding it in, and I cannot” (Jeremiah 20:9). That weariness sounds familiar, doesn’t it? Maybe you’ve felt the nudge to speak up, ...
