Jenna Northwood wrote the song 'Gotta Keep' when she was going through a difficult time. The song is a testament to Jenna's steadfast faith. It's a rallying cry for everyone who is toughing it out. The beat of the song? A single line: 'Gotta Keep, Gotta keep it all together.' Jenna helps us to remember that we're not alone. Somedays the news can really hit your sense of safety and security, and you almost wish that you could just switch it off and pretend it's not happening. It's also in those moments that we are blessed with the assurance that God is always with us. He keeps us upright when things get rough. And it is in songs like 'Gotta Keep' where we find strongholds to help keep us strong and calm. Songs that help us to position events in a larger persective, changing how we perceive the news that comes by as well as the day-to-day challenges we face at work and home. Jenna's song is a call to action, encouraging us to hold onto our

We are excited to share the resonating heartbeats behind Kayla Watford's new single, 'Who You Call Me.' A Florida-based singer, songwriter, and worship leader, Kayla has poured the essence of Christ's life changing love into this song, her third original release.  'Who You Call Me' is a powerful and relatable song. It encourages you to reflect on your identity in Christ. We live in a world that is quick to label and box us in, but this song breaks those chains. So what if the world sees you as A, B, or C? The question isn't who the world claims you are, but who God is calling you to be.  Soak in the truths that echo God's grace: 'I'm shaking off these labels…breaking free…from who they say I am, to Who you called me to Be.' How liberating it is to assert with conviction that God's opinion is the greatest measure of self-identity.  Growing up as a pastor's child, Kayla understands the struggles of trying to fit into someone else's

Getting into the heart of Romana Grace's song 'Winner' is like finding an oasis in the middle of life's desert. Romana, whose family comes from the lively cultures of the Netherlands and Surinam in South America, writes a song with a positive message for anybody who has felt defeated or hopeless. You could say that 'Winner' is our story as well as Romana's. This is for all of us who have faced those days when the dim light of dawn seemed to be our only friend in a cycle of setbacks. Romana wrote the song during a period of heartache and feeling depressed. A time of questioning 'why' believers so often have to deal with these dark shadows. 'Winner' is a beautiful example of how surrendering to God's strength can change darkness into light, and a daunting challenge into glorious victory. Romana's urban and upbeat gospel sound reminds us that victory doesn't mean we don't have to fight; it means that we have our Savior on our sid

There's a new song that beutifully captures the feeling of frest start, like the sunrise that announces the beginning of a new day full of hope. The song is called 'Hope in the Morning' by James Kelso. It has a beat that gets your feet tapping and lyrics that cleanse your soul. It's a song for anyone who is seeking comfort in Jesus. Kelso's song is about our walk with Christ. The lyrics describe how empty and fake life was 'before him.' But then comes an encounter with Jesus, and life changes. Just like how each sunrise chases away the darkness, Jesus brings a fresh start, filling our lives with hope and peace, and each morning becomes a testament of His unwavering grace. Some people look at the brokenness of life and question if God really exists. Kelso also sees a shattered world tainted by sin. He also sees the broken pieces that God is lovingly putting back together through Jesus. It's a sentiment that is easy for us to relate to because it reminds u

'Mess into a Message' is a beautiful song. It's a personal conversation between the singer and God, in all His glory.  Ohiagu takes you from the chaos of challenging times to the greatness of God's grace, which can change your life. He sings, 'No story too far gone, no chapter you're not in it,' a reminder that God is with us even when things look really bad.  Ohiagu fills the song with the promise of newfound strength and hope, describing it as a gift from God that helps all of His children 'face a new day' and 'trust come what may.' The message is connected to the meaning of Jesus Christ's resurrection, about how He turned defeat into victory and a 'mess' into a life-changing message for all.  With tenderness, Ohiagu repeats God's promise that our troubles will be turned into testaments to His unshakable love and mercy. His words, 'You turn the tide into a wave, you turn the stress into a blessing,' give us a glimpse

With this unique and authentic song, Mark and Sarah Tillman remind us of our calling to worship the One who rules over everything and is the only One truly worthy of it all. The 'Adoration Song' has a deep and meaningful message that speaks to our hearts as believers. The lyrics show what runs deep in our hearts: the desire to praise the One who is forever worthy.

Yemi Alafifuni's latest release, 'Deep', has the subtitle 'The Journey', implying that this song symbolizes a journey we need to make to the Creator's heart. Yemi wrote this song during a period of intense reflection and an almost endless interest about the purest form of love. 'Deep' is an intimate journey through a heavenly love landscape, with verses that express a constant bewildering at the depth of God's love and commitment to us. During the chorus, Yemi beautifully combines lyrics in both English and Yoruba, emphasizing God's love for all mankind and even more, the promise of a gift given to him when his daughter was born. A promise to love, come what may… Yemi's lyrics connect with us on a personal level, echoing our own spiritual longings and reminding us of Christ's infinite mercy, as expressed in Ephesians 3:17-19. The song invites us to examine our relationship with God's love, a framework for living in His love and allowi

The gospel song 'It's Gonna Be Alright' by Mama Tee is another beautiful song of hope that boosts faith when life's deck of cards seems to be stacked against us. The song was written by Mama Tee, Emmanuel Awipi, and Emmanuel Dickson. The lyrics remind us that God sees everything we are going through, knows our deepest pain, and He is and always will be in control. Even when darkness and troubles come our way, they are merely fleeting moments because we know that the light of joy will rise again with the morning sun.  In hard times, it's easy to feel alone, afraid, and spiritually numb. Many people are facing serious financial challenges, loss of community, illness, or bereavement. In the deepest moments of suffering, we may question if there is a God, and if so, does God really see what we're going through.  Yet Scripture says God's eyes are on us, His ears open to our cries (Psalm 34:15). Our Lord and Savior cares deeply and will work all things for good (R
