Shawn Thomas has released a Christian Contemporary Music (CCM) track called Takes Hold. "Takes Hold" is a funky, upbeat Contemporary Christian Music (CCM) song written and performed by Christian recording artist and worship leader, Shawn Thomas (https://www.shawnthomasonline.com). The lyrics for "Takes Hold" are inspired by Romans 8:24-27 with specific emphasis on verse 26 which says "...the Spirit helps us in our weakness." This verse translated from Greek more accurately means the Spirit "takes hold" of us and is "together with us" in our time of infirmity and weakness. The song uses the theme of the Holy Spirit taking hold, and incorporates it into the experience of uninhibited and free worship reflecting the excitement and energy that is present "when the true worshipers will worship the Father in the Spirit and in truth." (John 4:23). Accompanying the digital release on August 20, 2021, is a high-energy music video availa
