(by Jasper Tan) Taylor Pride's latest single, "Praise You In The Morning" is an uplifting song that is a powerful reminder of God's faithfulness in different seasons and circumstances. The song is an acknowledgement that even if we are facing hardships and difficulties, we should still continue to praise God, for he is our provider and protector. And that he has promised to redeem us in his perfect time. The song follows an established style of Taylor's "heart-on-your-sleeve" type of worship song, drawing inspiration for this song's music from the likes of Cody Carnes and Phil Wickham's songs, the likes of which are simple with an easy-to-sing chorus layered by joyful sounds. The lyrics serve as a prayer for those in the "desert seasons," suggesting that praise is a choice made even in times of uncertainty with our faith. The song uses the transition from night to day as a metaphor for moving from weeping to hope. It is a modern worship...

Have you ever felt your heart drifting away from what truly matters, even when you desperately try to stay faithful? “Come Thou Fount of Every Blessing” is a song that Logan and Katie grew up singing (and still are). It's a song that has spoken to generations and will continue to speak to future generations about the grace of God. Their rendition of "Come Thou Fount of Every Blessing" breathes fresh life into Robert Robinson’s timeless masterpiece—a hymn born from a rebellious heckler who, instead of mocking George Whitefield’s sermon in 1752, became a Christian three years later. Another three years later, when preparing a sermon for his church in Norfolk, England, he penned the words that have become one of the church’s most-loved hymns: “Come, thou fount of every blessing, tune my heart to sing thy grace.” This song speaks to the wanderer that we all have inside of us. When you hear Logan and Katie sing "prone to wander, Lord, I feel it," you're hearing ...

(by Jasper Tan) Romario Lela's latest single, "We Will Sing Glory," is a song that seeks to inspire us to never lose hope, especially in the current situation that our world is in. When we look at the world around us, it feels like we are burdened by wars, division, political tension, natural disasters, injustice, poverty, greed, and all the chaos that surrounds us. It's no surprise that as we are dealing with these, we feel a little more heavier each day. It is impossible to find peace as the world feels so broken and hopeless, with conflict upon conflict enveloping us. But as Christians, this shouldn't surprise us. As Romario shares, the Bible had already spoken about these moments. The turmoil across the earth, the decline of morality, and the selfishness among people that results in turning us against one another, these are not random events. These already happened long ago, as told in the Bible.  But there is an underlying message beneath these surface level ...

Aaron Goodhew's song, "All Praise (Great Are You Lord)," is a reminder of the ultimate hope that fuels our faith. Aaron shares that the inspiration for this song came to him while studying Revelation, specifically chapter 7. He was moved to tears by the promise of believers surrounding God's throne for eternity, experiencing pure joy, and free from all suffering. Just look around you at all of the suffering around the world, as well as the suffering close to home. Realize that we're just seeing a glimpse of all the suffering that is happening.  There is hope! Aaron explains, "The hope of that future in Christ is the fuel that drives believers every day to lay down their lives in pursuit of Jesus." This song is written with the desire that it will stir people to lift their eyes from their current circumstances and look up to Him who is seated in all authority.  The song reminds us of Jesus walking "the road that we deserved," carrying "th...

Are you thirsty for something more, a change that gives more meaning to life? Mark & Sarah Tillman's "Rains of Revival" calls us back to repentance, to the simple Gospel, to be the hands and feet. This is one of the songs featured on their compilation album, "The Story So Far - The Collection," which is filled with all the songs they have released so far. The song begins with a confession we all need to make at least once in our relationship with God: "Oh God we're crying out! Our hearts are desperate for You!" In other words, this isn't polite Sunday morning singing. This is about an honest hunger for God to be present in all parts of our lives. But most of all, this song confronts our hidden idols.  After more than a decade of ministry, Mark & Sarah Tillman understand how even good things can become idols, distracting our focus from the Most High. The lyrics plead: "Rains of revival, wash every idol away!" Standing in this...
