Morgan Starner's debut single "FUNK!" isn't your typical worship track… and that's exactly the intent! The song comes out of Morgan's journey through anxiety, insecurity, and depression during adolescence. She shares the lessons learned during this journey in a joyful, 70s-inspired song, reminding us that you don't need to have it all together to praise God. In fact, your "funk"—that heavy, stuck feeling—can be the place where worship begins!  "Get me out of this funk… I'm thirsty for that living water only You provide," she sings, pointing to God for relief and renewal. We don't need to pretend that we've got everything under control, because God already knows what's going on. The song is an invitation to surrender our control and trust in a God who's "always right on time." And what if your next step of faith isn't a quiet prayer… but a dance?  The message is clear… joy doesn't depend on our cir...

"Wonderful Becoming" is a Pop R&B fusion about resilience, overcoming, and hope that can rise after loss. The message of the song was born out of a season of heartbreak and rebuilding. ANO uses her experience to send a relatable message of hope.  The lyrics beautifully capture her journey in a manner that invites us to listen closely. She links her experiences with spiritual truths that we all need to hear from time to time. A gentle reminder that "You Formed me from heaven // And Knit me together." Our existence isn't random! We have been intentionally created by God for a reason and with a purpose.  The lyrics don't dwell on any feelings of despair. It is touched on because that is how life can feel from time to time. The song quickly moves on to a bigger vision and inspiration: "You fill me with visions // And dreams when I'm sleeping." The chorus puts everything into an eternal perspective: "Before time and space // You knew me....

"A Child's Prayer" is the first song that Remilekun wrote. It's a song that whispered for years as she sang it to herself, until she realized that it was meant to be shared with the world.  Backstories really matter! They frame the songs, and this song is one that really moves and touches the heart. It's easy to picture a child's hands folded at dawn: simple, honest, and filled with positive expectation. This song is a prayer without pretense. We hear an open and vulnerable heart asking God to listen, to notice every thought, and to meet the day with mercy.  The timing of this release is magnificent, like clockwork in God's larger plan. A time when the world desperately needs reminders like this one, affirming that God is a faithful Father who hears us, who carries our burdens, who never fails.  There's a morning rhythm here, starting the day with a prayer directed upward, eyes lifted toward His help. Instead of striving, trust. Instead of fear, surren...

With "bones […] in agony," a "soul […] deep anguish," and "drench(ing) my couch with tears," King David refuses to let grief have the last word. What imagery! Have you ever felt like this? "Psalm 6 (Tears)" by Red Letter Society shows us that there is hope beyond the sorrow. It reminds us that it's okay to be vulnerable and that we can be very honest with God about our struggles.  The song starts as a raw cry, mirroring the words of King David, "Heal me Lord, my bones are rubble." It's a feeling of being utterly worn out, and still knowing that this is not where the story ends. Knowing that God gives us the strength to turn our grief around, just like in the song where grief is turned into a prayer of hope.  "Can resurrection bring you praise?" , or in other words, can our lowest moments in life ultimately become a testament to God's glory? Psalm 6 answers that question. It acknowledges our pain and at the same...

Justin Barnett's "Your Kingdom—Live" captures the heart of anticipation and encourages us to think about what it means to long for Christ's return. A song that was recorded at Riverside Revival in East Nashville and written by John Chisum & Bonnie J. Barbey.  The song looks at the fact that we're already citizens of heaven and that we ache for the day when Christ's kingdom fully comes. It makes it clear that we live between a promise and the fulfillment of that promise. Barnett sings about Christ's kingdom being characterized by love, mercy, and power, and how it touches our present reality.  The lyrics encourage us to recognize our identity in Christ. We are "children of light," and are called to lift our praises and anticipate the moment "when we look on Your face." The lyrics also links its message to the Lord's prayer, "let Your kingdom come, let Your will be done, on earth as in heaven,"  where the prayer is bot...
