Amazing Grace - diatonic harmonica (K. Kuraś)

One young man demonstrated his God-given, angelic voice with an awe-inspiring and stunning vocal performance of the most beloved hymn of all time, “Amazing Grace.”

Hymns are beautifully written pieces of music. Their lyrics often impart much wisdom and truth about the Lord’s love, faithfulness, forgiveness and grace. Songs like “How Great Thou Art,” “Victory in Jesus” and “Great is Thy Faithfulness” will never lose their meaning and significance no matter how many times we hear them. 

In a clip posted on YouTube, one young man, Malakai Bayoh, performs the timeless classic “Amazing Grace.” 

“Amazing grace, how sweet the sound
That saved a wretch like me
I once was lost, but now am found” 

Simply put, Malakai’s performance is marvelous! To hear a voice like that coming from someone so young is almost unbelievable. God has blessed him with a singing voice that needs and deserves to be heard. 

The entire clip is a feast for the ears. He expertly moves his voice up and down, hitting one impressively high note after another as the teen sings the beloved hymn. 

However, like all performers, Malaki saves his best for last. At the end of the tune, Malakai reaches back and lets loose. He reaches for, hits and holds a series of high notes for an extended period of time. 

His performance is enough to send chills up and down your back as you listen to the young man belt out the classic lyrics about God’s astounding and confounding grace. 

Malakai, a teenager, first captured attention with his wondrous operatic voice on Britain's Got Talent. In his first appearance on the popular program, the teenager earned a coveted Golden Buzzer and even brought one of the show’s judges to tears. 

This young man could sing the phonebook and create a pleasurable listening experience. His level of musical talent is absurd. 

Psalm 105:2 “Let your voice be sounding in songs and melody; let all your thoughts be of the wonder of his works.”

Most with some years behind them will have no problem relating to the message of “Scars in Heaven,” sung here by Casting Crowns and Amy Grant. The music is lovely, and the lyrics are inspiring. 

Casting Crowns member Mark Hall wrote “Scars in Heaven” with Matthew West, and the group recorded the song in 2021. Amy Grant joined Casting Crowns to record “Scars in Heaven” in September 2023. 

Amy offered her feelings about the song in an instagram post shared on her official website, saying that she “choked up on every line.” She went on to say that the studio engineer, the producer, she, and others were crying during the recording of the “beautiful” song. 

“Scars in Heaven” tells the story of a person mourning the loss of a loved one. While the grieving person wishes they had just one more day with their family member or friend, they are simultaneously comforted by the knowledge that all the scars, literal and figurative, that their lost loved bore are no more. The pain of loss is lessened by the promise of a Heavenly restoration at the end of one’s earthly journey.      

Here are the words of the chorus from “Scars in Heaven:”

The only scars in Heaven, they won't belong to me and you 
There'll be no such thing as broken, and all the old will be made new 
And the thought that makes me smile now, even as the tears fall down 
Is that the only scars in Heaven are on the hands that hold you now

Amy Grant began her music career in 1976; Casting Crowns began performing together in 1999. Both have found tremendous success in the music industry. Both have experienced loss and pain. Mark Hall shared the inspiration for “Scars in Heaven” when he spoke with The Christian Post back in June 2021. 

Mark stated, “I began to write the song [while] watching my mom care for her mom and dad as they were passing away. They passed away within a year of each other. Seeing sickness change the people that raised her, seeing their minds change, and so many things were just taking a turn, and watching her bear the weight of that… My mom is a believer; she loves Jesus. She's the one I go to first when I need somebody to pray for me. But watching her deal with this as they passed away — that was tough.”

Ms. Grant’s voice is angelic. The violin that we hear at 45 seconds is superb. The way the tempo picks up at 1:45, as if to signify glimpses of hope, and the chorus of joyful voices that come together at 2:00—all these musical mechanics showcase the message of this perfect song.

How appropriate! Words and talents given to musicians so that they may communicate the most perfect truth there is. Jesus bears the scars that he suffered so that ours can be erased when we join Him in eternity! 

“Then he said to Thomas, “Put your finger here, and look at my hands. Put your hand into the wound in my side. Don’t be faithless any longer. Believe!”” John 20:27

Watch Natalie Grant Sing ‘In Christ Alone’ in her new official music video. In a world filled with noise and chaos, the act of praise and worship emerges as a profound salve for the soul. 

Natalie Grant, a powerhouse in the realm of Christian music, exemplifies the transformative power of praise through her new song, ‘In Christ Alone.’ As we immerse ourselves in this sacred melody, Natalie leads us on a spiritual journey that nourishes our souls and fosters a deeper connection with our heavenly Father. 

The song, with its rich theological depth and Natalie’s beautiful voice, becomes a vessel through which listeners can elevate their spirits and engage in worship that transcends the ordinary. Wearing a lovely flowery dress, Natalie walks around a greenhouse filled with different plants and places to sit to take in the wonder of creation. 

The music video, with its evocative visuals, complements the lyrics, creating a multisensory experience that resonates with the depths of our souls that only in Christ alone do we have our hope and salvation. 

At the heart of the song is a celebration of Christ's redemptive love and the unshakeable foundation it provides. As Natalie’s heavenly voice soars through the verses, each note becomes a proclamation of faith, an affirmation of the profound truth that in Christ alone, our hope is found. It tells us that the real victories are fought and won through Jesus. 

Natalie invites us to let the song become a prayer, a declaration of our faith in God who keeps His promises. This beautiful song stands as a poignant reminder of the indispensable role that praise and worship play in nurturing our souls. 

Through this musical odyssey, listeners are invited to lift their eyes beyond the mundane, finding solace, renewal, and a connection that echoes through the corridors of their lives, uplifting and transforming them from the inside out. 

We hope your heart soars as you listen to Natalie sing ‘In Christ Alone.’ 

"Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make straight your paths,” Proverbs 3:5-6. 

If you need encouragement for your heart today, check out this reminder of Christ as the Living Water. “Holy Water” the Belonging Co. with Daniella Mason and David Dennis.

At the start of this song we see a church singing and the worship leaders proclaiming that anyone in need of strength and satisfaction can turn to Jesus. As various individuals sing and play their instruments, it is evident that the joy of the Lord is present in their worship. 

They have great excitement over what they are singing. Daniella is so excited in her worship leading. She is a motivator and enthusiast. 

We see a community of believers with various ethnicities, talents, and stories standing on one stage glorifying Christ. The Lord is worthy of all of our praise. He is so glorious. They sing to come on into the water because Jesus is our Living Water and He is who He says that He is. 

The lyrics repeat a lot in hopes that the listener hears the message of hope proclaimed that Jesus has come to set us free. There is free worship in this video and great joy. The harmonies are completely stunning and the choir of people and the audience joining in makes it all the better.

Maybe you are feeling “spiritually dry” right now? Remember that Jesus is the Living Water, but in the midst of that, He is inviting us to come to Him. We are all thirsty and in need of spiritual fulfillment and purpose. Jesus is the answer to that deepest longing. We have nothing to bring, but we have everything to receive in Jesus. Praise Him!

“Come, all you who are thirsty, come to the waters; and you who have no money, come, buy and eat! Come, buy wine and milk without money and without cost.” Isaiah 55:1

Feel God’s embrace as you listen to ‘Just Be Held’ by Casting Crowns and Anne Wilson in this official audio version of the song. ‘Just Be Held’ captures our human nature. When we feel like we are drowning in life’s storms, we try to do everything in our power to control the situation. 

The reality is we have no control. We don’t have control over cancer, relationships, job layoffs, or the weather. But what we can control is where we place our faith and hope. Instead of assuming we can fix the crisis, we can turn to Jesus and let Him hold us through it all. 

“So when you're on your knees, and answers seem so far away
You're not alone, stop holding on and just be held
Your world's not falling apart, it's falling into place
I'm on the throne, stop holding on and just be held, Just be held, just be held”

‘Just Be Held’ has been a beloved song of believers since 2014 from the album ‘Thrive’ when writers Bernie Herms, Matthew West, and Mark Hall wanted to remind listeners to turn their attention to Christ when the world is seemingly falling apart. Especially when we live in a society where we’re taught to wear the mask of being fine. Isn’t it a blessing to know we don’t have to hold it all together because God does? 

We hope this special edition of ‘Just Be Held’ by Casting Crowns and Anne Wilson gives you permission to fall to your knees and surrender to Christ. Let Him carry you through the trial you face, and may He be your peace and hope in the storm. 

James 1:2-4 “Count it all joy, my brothers, when you meet trials of various kinds,  for you know that the testing of your faith produces steadfastness. And let steadfastness have its full effect, that you may be perfect and complete, lacking in nothing.”

Redeemed Quartet’s performance of “Still Drinking Water From the Well” will certainly leave your soul satisfied! Check out the new video by Redeemed Quartet.

The bass part, performed by member Josh Koble, is featured in the group’s rendition of “Still Drinking Water From the Well,” written by Larry Petree and originally sung by The Cathedrals. Josh Koble gives serious Josh Turner vibes with his deep, resonating voice, and fellow members Caleb Koble, Nate Duncan, and Ben Duncan deliver their parts beautifully.

Recorded in the California desert, the landscape is perfectly suited for the song’s lyrics. Amid the dust and the brush, there is a lovely, crystalline stream that promises refreshment.

Here are the lines of the chorus of “Still Drinking Water From the Well”:

Oh, yes, I’m still drinking water from the well-overflowing
From that clear crystal fountain, watch it flow, watch it swell.
And my soul’s satisfied, and I’m happy, can’t you tell?
‘Cause I’m still drinking water from the well      

The words of the Southern Gospel song convey the need that Christians—we all—have for God and His word. Just as we need water to survive, we need God’s nourishment daily in order to thrive in our faith. His well never runs dry and is always available to quench our spiritual thirst. 

The four members of Redeemed Quartet, which includes two pairs of brothers, are best friends. They began performing in 2014 when they were all in their late teens, hoping to “shine a light in the darkness and lift the weary traveler.” 

Indiana is home to the group. They record and maintain a “leisurely” travel schedule while each working in careers outside the music industry by day. In the video, they appear to be regular, unassuming guys, but they are serious about their faith. In their short bios., each guy expresses the desire to bring joy, light, and/or encouragement to people. 

God certainly gifted them with vocal talent, and He blessed all of us with the opportunity to be enriched by their beautiful four-part harmonies!   

“But those who drink the water I give will never be thirsty again. It becomes a fresh, bubbling spring within them, giving them eternal life.” John 4:14

Don’t miss your chance to watch ‘Miracle Child’ in Brandon Lake’s official music video. In a world filled with darkness, pain, and turmoil, Brandon reminds us of our mighty Savoir. In the symphony of life, there are melodies that resonate deep within our souls, touching the very essence of our being. 

‘Miracle Child’ is one such composition, a powerful and encouraging song that encapsulates the awe-inspiring wonders of God and celebrates the miraculous story of Jesus conquering the grave because of His unwavering love for us. 

The lyrics of ‘Miracle Child’ paint a vivid picture of the extraordinary, highlighting the undeniable presence of the Holy Spirit that guides us through the stormy seas of existence. Brandon Lake, with his soul-stirring voice, invites us to witness the miracles that unfold in the tapestry of life, reminding us that each one of us is a miracle child in the eyes of God.

“Death, where is your sting 
My savior’s word is final 
I am resurrected, blood-protected 
I am a miracle child”

What makes ‘Miracle Child’ particularly poignant is its ability to resonate with people from all walks of life. Whether you're facing challenges that seem insurmountable or reveling in the joys of the present moment, this song serves as a reminder that God's grace is ever-present, ready to turn the ordinary into the extraordinary.

The beauty of the song lies not only in its Biblical, lyrical prowess but also in the seamless fusion of music and hope-infused message. The melody, with its uplifting crescendos and gentle interludes, mirrors the ebb and flow of life's journey. It is an anthem of resilience, echoing the sentiment that even in the darkest of times, the light of God's love shines through.

As the final notes of ‘Miracle Child’ linger in the air, listeners are left with a profound sense of awe and inspiration. The song is a reminder that, indeed, we are all miracle children intricately woven into the grand design of God’s plans. Through the powerful words of Brandon Lake, we are invited to marvel at the wonders of life and acknowledge the amazing God whose grace continues to shape our extraordinary journey.

2 Corinthians 6:18 “‘And I will be a father to you, and you shall be sons and daughters to Me,’” says the Lord Almighty.’”

Are you in need of hope and encouragement today? Don’t miss this moment to spend time in worship as you listen to ‘God Can Use A Broken Man’ by Jason Crabb in this poignant music video. 

Jason Crabb, a prominent figure in Christian music, has consistently used his talent to deliver messages of faith, hope, and redemption. One of his notable songs, ‘God Can Use a Broken Man,’ encapsulates a powerful narrative of divine restoration and the transformative nature of God's grace.

‘God Can Use a Broken Man’ is a heartfelt and authentic exploration of the idea that God can work through individuals who are broken, flawed, and in need of His grace. The lyrics convey a message of hope, reassuring listeners that no matter how broken or imperfect they may feel, God has the power to use them for His plans and purpose. 

Perhaps you’re in need of this message right now because of the struggles and secret battles that only you and God know about. The message of this song is a powerful reminder God will redeem you and He has a purpose for you.

The song also highlights the universal truth that God's grace is not reserved for the righteous but extends to those like you, who may have strayed or faced struggles. It serves as a reminder that God specializes in using the broken pieces of our lives to create a beautiful mosaic of redemption and purpose.

Oh, God can use a broken man
He can take all of our failures and make us whole again 
I’m living proof, yes I am 
That God can use a broken man

What I treasure most about this song is how Jason reminds us it's okay to be broken. In fact, brokenness is a central theme of the song. In a world that often values perfection and success, this song speaks to the reality that everyone faces challenges and moments of brokenness. The song reminds us that in our brokenness, God fills in the cracks and makes us whole again. 

For individuals grappling with addiction, sin, or feelings of unworthiness, this song serves as a beacon of hope. It encourages them to turn to God, recognizing that He can use even the most broken parts of their lives for a greater purpose. It's a call to embrace vulnerability and surrender to the transformative power of God's love. 

Jason’s soulful delivery of this incredible message reminds us that our brokenness does not disqualify us from God's grace; rather, it positions us to experience the fullness of His healing and restoration. May this song inspire and encourage you to reach out to God today, trusting in His ability to use every broken aspect of your life for His divine purpose.

Psalms 51:17 “The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit; a broken and contrite heart, O God, you will not Despise.”

Don’t miss watching ‘In Christ Alone’ by Natalie Grant in the official music video. Natalie Grant, a vessel of divine grace and musical talent, has mesmerized audiences with her heavenly voice in her new song, ‘In Christ Alone.’ As her voice resonates with an ethereal quality, one cannot help but feel a profound connection to Jesus Christ, our Savoir.

Set in a greenhouse with sunlight flowing in, her lyrical masterpiece is a testament to the unwavering foundation we find in our Savior. Natalie Grant, with her anointed voice, breathes life into the verses, making them soar to the heavens. It is as if the very angels pause to listen, recognizing a kindred spirit harmonizing with the celestial chorus. 

With every verse, we ascend to the heavenly realms, carried by the wings of God’s promises. The melody becomes a lighthouse, cutting through the darkness and illuminating the path that leads to God’s comfort, strength, and hope. 

In Christ alone
I place my trust
And find my glory
In the power of the cross

In moments of weakness, when our strength falters, God's grace is a mighty river that flows, lifting us from the depths of despair. His promises, like a radiant sunrise, dispel the shadows of doubt and fear. In the chorus of the song, we hear the anthem of heaven, a proclamation that in Christ alone, we find our glory, strength, and power as our spirits are lifted high.

This beautiful song is a declaration of dependence on the One who is our hope, our refuge, and our strength. It is an acknowledgment that, apart from God, our efforts are futile, but in His presence, we find an inexhaustible wellspring of hope. ‘In Christ Alone’ is not merely a song; it is a spiritual journey—a reminder that in the arms of God, we find solace, restoration, and unshakeable hope. We hope your spirit was uplifted by Natalie’s powerful song today. 

Acts 4:12 “And there is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved.”

A beloved and world-renowned musician and one of his talented children – Andrea and Matteo Bocelli – joined forces for a dazzling musical version of “The Lord’s Prayer.”

The Bible is essentially a blueprint and a guidebook for any and all situations in life. Whatever it may be, the Word of God has an example or a piece of wisdom that will prove helpful. God’s book is full of directions and guidance. 

In the New Testament, Jesus Christ even instructs His followers about the proper way to pray and communicate with the Lord. That prayer, which many have likely memorized by heart and could recite in their sleep, has become known as “The Lord’s Prayer.” In a clip posted on YouTube, Andrea and Matteo Bocelli have added musical notes and turned that series of Bible verses into a beautiful song.

In the video, Matteo sits at a brightly-colored piano, tickling the ivories while his father belts out the prayer in a sing-songy fashion. It’s a remarkable and moving version of the prayer Jesus Christ first recited in the book of Matthew. 

Others who commented on the YouTube link mentioned how much they loved and adored Andrea and Matteo’s musical version of “The Lord’s Prayer.”

“You couldn’t ask for a more moving, beautifully done version of our most important prayer. Your God given voice has given me so much peace and joy in my heart. Thank you, Bocelli family for this,” one person wrote. 

“Absolutely lovely and Andrea takes this song to another level! All the angels must have been listening to him and family! It was sooo good,” a second person added.

“The Lord’s Prayer has always been one of my favorites to read. Thank you for singing this. It was so beautiful!” a third individual mentioned. 

Matthew 6:9-10 “After this manner therefore pray ye. ‘Our Father who art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come. They will be done, as in heaven, so on earth.”

‘This Is Our God & Gratitude’ by Brandon Lake and Phil Wickham, performed at the 54th Dove Awards, will leave you breathless as you praise God. 

The moment you hit ‘play,’ you’ll be dancing on the balls of your feet the same way Phil Wickham did during his performance. The song, ‘This Is Our God & Gratitude’ is a song filled with energy, life, and hope because of our Heavenly Father!

It’s a song that speaks to the battles conquered, and the victories won because of Jesus Christ in our lives. In a world filled with challenges and uncertainties, Jesus continues to be the ultimate source of solace, strength, and salvation. 

Remember those giants we called death and grave
They were like mountains that stood in our way
But He came and He died and He rose
Those giants are dead now

The first two verses give the loving details of how Christ conquered sin and won the victory over “those giants we called death and grave.” The song rises in the beat for victory and praises about how God does the impossible in our lives simply because He loves us. 

The message of hope was broadcast to millions of people around the world. Between Brandon and Phil, they created a harmonious uplifting song filled with rhythm, melody, and lyrics inspired by biblical truths. It’s incredible to think how worship music has the extraordinary ability to soften hardened hearts, break down walls, and ultimately win lost souls to Christ.

Well done Brandon and Phil! Thank you for your willingness to follow the call of music that God has placed on your lives. We hope this music video filled your heart today!

1 Corinthians 15:54-57 “When the perishable puts on the imperishable, and the mortal puts on immortality, then shall come to pass the saying that is written: “Death is swallowed up in victory.” “O death, where is your victory? O death, where is your sting?” The sting of death is sin, and the power of sin is the law. But thanks be to God, who gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.”

Savor this video of “What a Beautiful Name,” sung and shared by TAYA (Taya Smith-Gaukrodger) and featuring André Valadão. What a treat it is!

TAYA, a former member of Hillsong United (a.k.a. United), was born Lismore, Australia, the daughter of a church elder and worship leader. You can hear an accent at times during this stunning performance; however, “performance” doesn’t seem quite the right word. TAYA completely engages her audience in the process of worship.

Dressed simply in an oversized sky blue blouse—the style oddly similar to a prison uniform—and black pants and combat boots, TAYA wears modest make-up and simple, delicate jewelry. Her look and presence are unique. Throughout the 8-minute performance, TAYA is feminine, exuberant, passionate, and clearly ready for battle in the name of Jesus.

She is joined at 2:50 by Pastor André Valadão. André Valadão (45) is a Brazilian Singer, Songwriter, Worship Pastor, and TV Presenter. Together, they lead the congregants of Lagoinha Baptist Church (at Virada 23 in Orlando); André is Lagoinha’s lead pastor. Lagoinha Baptist Church hosts 82,000 people and 45 services every week!    

Let’s take a closer look at TAYA and André’s inspiring collaboration. 

TAYA stands against the sky of blue, and the white lights look like stars. This rendition of “What a Beautiful Name” is unlike any we’ve heard. At 1:15, TAYA emphasizes “nothing” with a definitive gesture. And, at 1:50, she shouts out the word “greater” and changes up the words “separate us now” sung just seconds later.  

TAYA invites Pastor André onto the stage to “lead your people” in worship. From here, the singers sing alternately in English and Portuguese—delivering the good news that is understood in all languages and around the globe.

His name is beautiful! At 3:30, we get a view of the crowd, standing with raised hands and voices, as they sing of Heavenly Father. As the music builds, TAYA bounces as if unable to contain the joy she feels. 

At the 6-minute mark, the song winds down, and TAYA leads a prayer. Pastor André echoes each line in his native tongue. Surely, worshippers feel nearer to Heaven as they join TAYA and Pastor André in praise. 

What a blessing it is!

My ambition has always been to preach the Good News where the name of Christ has never been heard, rather than where a church has already been started by someone else. Romans 15:20

Get your worship on with ‘Praise You In This Storm’ by contemporary Christian artists Casting Crowns and Phil Wickham. For years, this Casting Crowns hit has brought us peace and comfort in life’s storms to so many people around the world. Since 2014, when the song was released on their album ‘Thrive,’ it has become a staple in worship. 

And every tear I've cried, You hold in your handYou never left my sideAnd though my heart is tornI will praise you in this storm’

The slower tempo and pace of the song combined with Phil Wickham allows the listener to soak into the rich Biblical meaning of the lyrics. We are reminded no matter what is happening in life, God is by our side. Every tear is held in His hands. The song was inspired by Casting Crowns' experience with Erin Browning, a young girl dying of cancer. 

The band had the sacred honor of walking with her family through her illness and passing. It was an incredible moment to watch Erin’s family praise God after Erin passed away. Mark Hall, a band member of Casting Crowns, said watched Erin’s mother praising God. 

"Watching [Erin's mother] walk through this really showed me truth about my worship. Watching her walk through a real storm showed me that my worship was extremely situational,” He said. 

Today, Casting Crowns is teaming up with Phil Wickham for a special edition of this blessed song. For years, Phil has been using his God-given talent to reach hearts around the world for Christ. Since the age of 13, Phil has been a part of the worship team at his church. 

He felt called to become a worship leader, but he had no idea God had even bigger plans in store for him. Today, he takes his passion for Christ to a whole new level with his talent as he performs right alongside Casting Crowns. It’s a song you don’t want to miss. 

No matter what situation you’re facing, we hope this song and the meaning behind it have been a blessing. 

James 1:12 “Blessed is the man who remains steadfast under trial, for when he has stood the test he will receive the crown of life, which God has promised to those who love him.”

If you are looking for a catchy new Christian artist, look no further. Check out 'One Of The Found' Katy Nichole official lyric video.

The upbeat melody instantly attracts the listener. This prayer type song is expressing this young woman’s heart calling out to God in the midst of her doubts. She shares in the chorus:

I'm reachin' out for Your savin', 'cause here in the waitin', yeah
I've been sinkin' in a sea of my doubts
Lord, break the horizon, 'cause I can't keep fightin', yeah
I just wanna be one of the found

Katy vulnerably and creatively shares about the struggle of wrestling depression and doubts, but desiring to seek the Savior. The song goes into the bridge of pleading for Jesus to come save her. Jesus is the only one who can rescue us from our sin. Scripture makes it clear that there is no other way to be saved. 

He has come after us like a Shepherd going after the one lost sheep. This song reminds us of the parable of the lost sheep found in the New Testament. Maybe you are a lost sheep or know a lost sheep. Jesus is pursuing, He is seeking to save the lost. We can be reminded of that truth today through Katy’s music. Christ cares about us individually and loves us. He comes in the midst of our mess.

This song is a current pop version to remind us that Jesus is the Good Shepherd and He is gently calling us to Himself. In a world where many are hurting and hopeless, His gospel meets them. He pursues the lost. He desires that none should perish, but that all should be saved. We get to celebrate this truth today.

“And when he finds it, he joyfully puts it on his shoulders and goes home. Then he calls his friends and neighbors together and says, ‘Rejoice with me; I have found my lost sheep.” Luke 15:5-6

Music has the power to uplift our spirits, convey a powerful message, and help us praise the Lord. Check out this Christian family as they sing the cover of ‘Clean’ by the Gaither vocal band. 

From the moment the video on YouTube begins to play, a moment of holiness settles over the family of five boys, and their father sings an acoustic rendition that will leave you mesmerized and praising God. The performance beautifully captures the essence of the original song while adding their unique vocals. 

I stepped into the river, sank up to my knees in the mud
Beneath that cleansing flood
There was something about the water, there was power in the blood
For the first time in my life, I felt clean

Written by Gary Gatlin and Bill Gaither, the lyrics speak to the deep yearning for forgiveness and the transformative experience of having our sins washed away, leaving a clean slate. 

The performance not only showcases their vocal strength but also resonates deeply with its message of redemption and how Jesus washes us clean, one by one, when we give our lives to Him. It’s an incredible moment of freedom! 

Doesn’t it just move your heart to witness these five young gentlemen honor God with their father leading them? Their cover of 'Clean' is a testament to the impact of Gospel music and its ability to touch the hearts around the world, uniting us under the banner of Christ. We hope this song has given you a chance to reflect on the precious gift Christ gave us through his actions on the cross. 

1 John 1:7-9 “But if we walk in the light as He is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus Christ His Son cleanses us from all sin. If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us.”

Listen to this new version of ‘Faithfully’ by TobyMac in his new official music video. 

Faithfully isn’t just a song, it’s a testament to God’s enduring faith. Even when we are not faithful or we lose sight of our Savoir, He remains steadfast in His love for us. 

It's been a long year, it almost took me down, I swear
Life was so good
I'm not so sure we knew what we had
I'll never be the same man

The song alludes to the journey of grief he’s traveled after losing his firstborn son, Truett Foster McKeehan died of an overdose in 2019. In the midst of imaginable sorrow, TobyMac wasn’t sure he would ever make music again. 

Yet, through God’s faithfulness, the songs came. The first song ‘21 Years,’ was a window into the grief his family grappled with as they mended their broken family. 

The next song, ‘Faithfully’ became a reel of watching how God held TobyMac’s heart in His hands as TobyMac learned to live again without his son. The music video unfolds as though TobyMac is having a conversation with a journalist and reflecting on how God revealed His faithfulness over the last few years since Truett’s death. 

It will resonate with anyone who walked through dark days. The song carries an undertone of longing and heartache and reminds us that even in the face of unbearable loss, God will be our strength to help us carry on.

TobyMac shared the new release on his Instagram.  “One of my favorites off the “Life After Death” album and the first song I wrote after “21 years,” he wrote. “ I remember thinking “how can I ever write a song again, how can I ever do anything again? Why is the world still moving.” But our God is kind. He meets us in the hardest, coldest places. It doesn’t scare Him. He remains. I will never be the same man, but I’m a man who still believes,” he added. 

But when my world broke into pieces
You were there faithfully
When I cried out to You, Jesus
You made a way for me

In TobyMac's "Faithfully," we find a beautiful reminder that, even in our darkest hours, God will be lifting us up and holding us tightly as we continue our journey through the mountains and valleys. We hope this song blessed you today. 

2 Timothy 13 “If we are faithless, he remains faithful, for he cannot disown himself.

You will love ‘TEAR OFF THE ROOF’ by Brandon Lake, featuring the TV series ‘The Chosen’ in the music video. Brandon sings with a passion that opens hearts to the mighty power of our Savior. He takes God’s healing to a whole new level in this song. 

In an interview about the new song, Brandon commented, “I can’t think of a better storyteller of Jesus than THE CHOSEN TV series, so it made so much sense to team up and have their help in sharing the story of this song, which is based on Mark Chapter 2 and Luke Chapter 8.” He added, “Thank you to The Chosen for changing my life among millions of others. We pray this song reminds you of the healing power of Jesus!”

“There is a life-changing
Grave shaking, dead raising power in the room 
Heart-healing Hell-stealing 
No ceiling power, so tear off the roof”

This awe-inspiring new song, set to a beat-driven explosive melody, reminds us of  God’s limitless power that comes from the name of our blessed healer and Savior. What I love the most about the music video is how Brandon partnered with ‘The Chosen’ which depicts various scenes from the T.V. series, showcasing Jesus’ miracles. 

The climactic chorus of the song brings us to the story in the book of Mark when a paralyzed man was lowered through a hole made in the roof of the home Jesus was visiting. This man’s friends knew Jesus could heal him. They didn’t let the hoards of people in the home stop them from laying their friend at Jesus’ feet. 

When you’re feelings are frayed and doubt becomes a drumbeat in your mind, listen to ‘TEAR OFF THE ROOF’ and be reminded you serve a God who heals, who provides, and is miraculous. This song is a reminder to go out all for Jesus. Go after Him with your whole heart. He is waiting with open arms to provide rest, strength, healing, and comfort. 

We hope you enjoyed listening to this powerful song today! 

Mark 2:3-5 “And they came, bringing to him a paralytic carried by four men. And when they could not get near him because of the crowd, they removed the roof above him, and when they had made an opening, they let down the bed on which the paralytic lay. And when Jesus saw their faith, he said to the paralytic, “‘Son, your sins are forgiven.’”

You will fall in love with the song ‘Hallelujah Anyway’ performed by Charly Beathard in an official music video. 

Charly bridges the gap between authentic and sincere worship music and country music. With a voice that reveals the passion of the words she sings, Charly paints a picture of journeying through life while keeping our eyes on Christ. It’s not easy. 

In fact, some days are hard. We feel alone, discouraged, and disappointed. But Charly reminds us no matter what situations we are currently facing, we can sing ‘Hallelujah Anway.’ 

Come fire, come flood, come troubled waters
Jesus come what may
Hallelujah anyway

The Nashville native was discovered by record producers during a staff meeting at church. Charly was there to lead the team in worship. 

Jess Loper of Gotee Records remembers the moment he heard Charly sing. He recalled, “I snuck in the back of that room and was immediately floored by the sincerity and emotion in her voice. She is crafting veritable lyrics that universally resonate. We are so grateful for the chance to help share her music and what she is creating with the world.”

Like the song ‘Hallelujah Anyway,’ Charley’s desire for listeners to know and love music is the thread that weaves into every song she sings. She reminds us to believe in God’s plan, to lean into Him for comfort, and to rely on Christ for strength. 

‘Hallelujah Anyway’ is a testament to Charly’s commitment to creating music that resonates with people from all walks of life. We hope you enjoyed this music video and it strengthens your faith in Christ. 

Psalm 135:1-3 “Praise the Lord! Praise the name of the Lord; Praise Him, O you servants of the Lord!  You who stand in the house of the Lord, in the courts of the house of our God, praise the Lord, for the Lord is good; sing praises to His name, for it is pleasant.”

Several musicians turned in an outstanding performance as they sang about laying down all their worries, fears and stresses at the feet of Jesus Christ.

Everyday living, with all its obligations and demands, can be a tall task. Sadly, it can often get to the point where making it through one single, solitary day can feel like a monumental accomplishment. Every choice, regardless of the situation or circumstance, can feel like a lose-lose proposition.

But even in cases of extreme worry and stress, when everything is overwhelming, people will still attempt to go at it alone. It’s easy to see, and most people understand that nothing good usually comes from these situations. In fact, people tend to make their issues immeasurably worse. This all occurs when there is a simple solution: lay it all at the feet of the Savior.

In a clip posted on YouTube, a group of musicians perform an acoustic version of “Come unto Jesus.” Right off the bat, in the opening verse, the songwriters encourage all who have problems, issues or worries to come to the Lord.

“Come unto Jesus, all you who are weary
Come to the mercy seat, fervently kneel
Here bring your wounded hearts, broken and needy
Come unto Jesus, mighty to heal”

Many people in the world – people all around us – are hurting and struggling. There are legions of people today who are far too familiar with pain, heartache and suffering. Some may even believe they are all alone, left to fend for themselves in those times of extreme worry and stress. 

But instead of going at it alone, there is one who is more than capable. He has overcome all. He is a God of love, mercy and comfort. He invites us to bring our troubles to Him and to cast all our burdens on Him.

Matthew 11:28 -29 “Come to me, all you who are troubled and weighted down with care, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke on you and become like me, for I am gentle and without pride, and you will have rest for your souls.”
