Have you ever found yourself at a loss for words when you tried to describe God's greatness? Darrell Vaughn is a worship leader at the Rockpile Church in Texas, and he knows that feeling. This song, "Holy Is Your Name", takes a closer look at this struggle. Darrell has been involved in leading worship and church planting for four decades. He uses his experiences and musical skills to turn this struggle between our human limitations and God's majesty into a faith-boosting song. The melody of the song is an intriguing mix of country, soul, and modern Christian music with a bit of a laid-back vibe.  There is nothing laid-back about the message of the song. The lyrics challenge us to look for new ways to express God's worthiness. Vaughn sings, "I'm searching for a new word," showing the challenge we all face from time to time to express what we feel using words. It's a bit like the challenge we have to describe the taste of a strawberry or the feeli...

"MIRACLES" by Citizen Way, Jasmine Murray, and Kevin Winebarger is a catchy and energetic song that makes you want to throw your hands up and shout "Hallelujah!" . MIRACLES stands on the core belief that God is very much still in the miracle business. If you've ever doubted whether He could also do for you what He's already done for so many others, then this song is here to silence those doubts. As the lyrics say, "They said the storm would never break, but I've seen You make a way."   The key message? Have full confidence in His power. Don't doubt. Whether it's turning darkness into light or moving mountains, Citizen Way, Kevin Winebarger, and Jasmine Murray sing with bold assurance: "I've seen it time and time again // Oh, there's nothing out of Your hands."   Lines like "I've seen the grave get out the way // You're making Friday feel like Sunday" declare that even in the toughest moments, breakth...

"Back to Life" by Taylor Charmayne is a song of strength, redemption, and faithfulness. Taylor Charmayne had what she calls a "Damascus moment", a moment where she realized that her music wasn't in line with God's plan for her life. She was a rising star in secular pop at that time, and she turned away from the fame and the record deals to give her life back to Christ. The lyrics describe the change,  "I've been feeling like I'm on E," she sings, describing her struggle. But she knew He was with her, even when she couldn't see His hand. “What’s Goliath to a stone when you with me?” The chorus is full of thankfulness and reminds us that God is always there: “You always show up on time… every time I lost my fight, you brought me right back to life.”   This song isn't about being perfect; it's all about trust. It's about healing and knowing that God has prepared a way, regardless of how tough things...

Phoebe Durojaiye's "I Need You Now" is a relatable warm hug for anyone who feels (or has felt) overwhelmed by life. Phoebe wrote this song when she was 15 — a teenager struggling with faith, uncertainty, and the weight of growing up. It's a personal song, more like a prayer set to music. She performed and recorded the song live at the Ageless One concert when she was 17, but it remained unreleased until now!  What makes this track special is its simplicity and sincerity. Lines like "I really can't do this anymore, I really can't do this by myself" reflect thoughts so many of us have, and at the same time we struggle to accept it and place our struggles in the Lord's hands. "Lord, I need You now," a cry paired with a plea for grace. When you look deep into a parents heart, isn't this the cry we all hope our children will repeat when they are struggling…  The bridge of the song slightly shifts the focus, offering more hope: "I ...

Our Father is the latest release that completes Yemi's latest EP, "YHWH". An EP with 4 songs in the CCM genre, 1 song in the CEDM genre ("Our Father") and an instrumental version of "Our Father." Each one of these songs aims to help us grow our relationship with our Heavenly Father. Yemi brings us a message that the world is thirsting to hear. In Our Father, you will recognize most of the lyrics as the Lord's Prayer, and the beat helps to spread this message to a new group of listeners. When we cry out to God, we're not praying to a distant, uninvolved, abstract thing called "god." We are praying to the living God, our Father who "abound[s] in faithful love" (Psalm 86:15). We are crying out to a protective Father who is full of love, courage and wisdom. And His answer is always, "I'm here. I've got you." Heavenly Father is not a deadbeat father. He is near. He is present. His concern for us touches our bigg...

Dave Langdon's "Outrageous" is the kind of song that makes you stop for a moment and think, "Wow, He really did that for me?" Co-writer Chelsea Brandow was driving in her car when the concept and melody for the chorus just flowed out. They loved the idea she shared and decided to run with it.  The song celebrates how Christ gave everything on the cross, even though we didn't deserve it. Lines like "I'm amazed that you would give your life for me" remind us how incredible and astonishing it is that Christ chose to give his life for us on the cross.  What stands out the most is how personal this song feels. Dave sings about being undeserving yet forgiven and broken yet healed. The bridge beautifully captures this: "My heart can barely fathom the measure of Your love." The lyrics are catchy, and you'll quickly find yourself singing along, especially with this part, "Your love is outrageous," over and over again.  This s...

"Follow Jesus" by S.D.G. (Soli.Deo.Gloria) is a song that started in a miraculous way. S.D.G. shared that 95% of the song lyrics, melody, and harmony came to mind completely unexpectedly in 1–2 days. He compares it to lightning, lightly, seemingly without his effort, as if somebody else from High sent it all to him and said, "do it"!  A song sparked by the realization that many people just say, "Has not been born on earth yet… // Man who can wisely teach me life." But look at Jesus! He's already here, sowing love and offering wisdom that is way beyond human understanding.  The song challenges us to reflect on our feelings of pride and self-reliance: "When I do say - I'm always right… Am I not blind?" It invites us to exchange our arrogance for humility and reminds us that Christ already lives among us and guides us with His grace. "Jesus - He lives in our midst, // He's the best teacher that the earth has ever known!"   Th...
