Praise & Worship

SONG BY ELAINE TAYLORBROWN

This is a song that simply came into my head one day when I was praying and repenting of a sin I had just done in haste. I know for sure that it was God's answer to my prayer. Over the years I've gradually came to understand more and more, the meaning of the wonderful words.

"Hosanna to the Risen Lord" is a catchy song giving praise to God that Jesus is risen, having died for the sins of the world. Jesus gave his life to forgive people for their sins, if they put their faith in him. He was resurrected, within three days.

This is an original I wrote and sang at the Homestead Hollow Festival in Springville, Al

"Praise the Lord Forever" is a fun song of praise to God. He is the one true God. He alone is worthy of worship. This is exciting Disco music. As usual, the music video contains 3D animation. I hope you enjoy it! Praise the Lord!

A trio of incredibly talented vocalists gave a touching and moving cover of the most beloved and well-known hymn of all time, “Amazing Grace.”

All are sinners and have fallen well short of the glory of God. But despite this fact of man’s sinful and fallen nature, God showed a tremendous amount of love, mercy and pity on us when He sent His one and only Son to die on the cross. If not for that act of grace and love, none would have a chance at everlasting life. All would have been lost and without hope. 

In a clip posted on YouTube, The Texas Tenors sing about the Lord’s amazing and life-giving gift of grace. While it’s a tune everyone is familiar with, the lyrics are still as touching and true as ever. His love, mercy and grace will never stop being astounding, confounding and amazing!

“Amazing grace how sweet the sound
That saved a wretch like me
I once was lost, but now I’m found
Was blind but now I see”

While the memorable lyrics remain the same, the music accompanying the singing sounds different slightly from the original. Normally, from the opening notes of the song, before a word is sung, everyone within earshot recognizes “Amazing Grace.” But that’s not the case here. It’s not until one of the members of The Texas Tenors begins belting out the lyrics that the tune becomes familiar.

In addition to changing up the music a little, the guys also sang the song oddly in spots. They unexpectedly sing some lines with a different rhythm and cadence than the original. The change is nothing drastic that alters the meaning or feeling of the classic song in any way. It's something slight that helps to differentiate their version from the hundreds of thousands of other times “Amazing Grace” has been performed. 

“Amazing Grace” is without question the most well-known and widely recognized hymn of all time. One look at or listen to the song’s lyrics, and it’s clear why. All are sinners, and no one deserves the grace the Lord generously gives to all who ask for forgiveness. 

Ephesians 2:8 “Because by grace you have salvation through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is given by God.”

Check out the official video ‘Crazy About You’ by Tauren Wells. The message of this song packs a powerful punch that will take your breath away. God is crazy about you! This song is punctuated by Tauren’s soulful voice and powerful vocals backed by a choir of background singers. The complex combination of music styles creates a traditional soulful church rock song. The sound heightens the meaning of the words of the song too!

“He's crazy about you. Died so you didn't have to.
Tore your failure apart, now He wears your scars
That's how much He loves you.”

Have you ever thought about God’s love this way? Have you considered that God loved you so much His son now wears scars for you? What a great song with a life-changing message. It’s taking the internet by storm with over 21,000 views and hundreds of comments. 

One viewer shared how this song impacted her relationship with Jesus. She wrote, “When I sit quietly by myself and listen to this song I get goosebumps!  It’s like Jesus is holding me in His arms and surrounding me with His love!  Thank you, Tauren for this beautiful song!”

“This song is coming from his heart, it's like his poetry to say something in a way that hits our hearts,” another viewer posted.” Especially those who have heard of salvation since a young age. He has a way of telling the story afresh so we keep living the beauty of it all our lives.”

Another listener thanked Tuaren for the song, “Thank you Tauren, for a heartwarming, beautiful, and touching song. This song made me cry. May God keep blessing you.”

We hope you enjoyed this new song from Tauren Wells today! 

Psalm 30:4-5 “Sing praises to the LORD, O you his saints, and give thanks to his holy name. For his anger is but for a moment, and his favor is for a lifetime. Weeping may tarry for the night, but joy comes with the morning.”

Listen to this wonderful new song called ‘Jesus Cries’ by Riley Clemmons.

“It’s no secret that life gets a little heavy sometimes, like it’s too much for one heart to take
Your smile’s wearing thin, just tryin’ to hold it all in, but it feels like the dam’s gonna break
You are not alone facing that flood behind your eyes, heaven already knows
Every tear that you cry, let ‘em fall like the rain, let ‘em roll down your face”

What a beautiful song, and the music video is also so heartfelt. In the video, Riley is seen sitting on a simple church pew in an empty space singing out the lyrics to ‘Jesus Cries.’

The song reminds us that we can bring our hardships and heaviness to Jesus, because he understands and can be with us in our sadness. We are never alone. He is with us always.

When it comes to Riley Clemmons and her musical background, this 22-year-old artist from Nashville, TN has already accumulated over 210 million global streams and 50 million YouTube video views since the beginning of her almost decade long career. She began writing songs at the age of 13 and played shows around her hometown, but she really came onto the music scene in 2017 with her debut single called ‘Broken Prayers.’ And in 2021, she was nominated as Female Artist of the Year at the 9th Annual K-LOVE Fan Awards, marking a first in her career in addition to becoming the youngest nominee in the show’s history.

We hope you enjoyed listening to ‘Jesus Cries’ by Riley Clemmons today and the song was able to bring you some encouragement.

Deuteronomy 31:8
It is the Lord who goes before you. He will be with you; he will not leave you or forsake you. Do not fear or be dismayed.

A popular Christian band, We Are Messengers, gave an emotionally stirring performance of a beautiful tune about the faithfulness and goodness of God.

Life is an unpredictable ride, filled with potholes, speed bumps and many detours. Those different routes and exits often take us to destinations we never imagined or envisioned. Sometimes it’s a pleasant surprise and others it’s not so much. But regardless of where we go or how we get there, God will be there the entire journey. 

The good Lord above is always guiding, protecting and directing. He will never leave nor forsake us. For His constant care, watch and love, He deserves all honor, glory and praise. 

In their official music video posted on YouTube, the band, We Are Messengers, sings “God Be the Glory.” It’s a wonderfully written tune praising and thanking God, an ever-faithful, protecting and guiding presence in our lives. 

“God, You’re still good to me
When my hope is all but gone
And I’m barely hanging on
God, You’re still good to me”

Most people have found themselves in a position in which whatever decision or choice they make, it’s the wrong or losing one. There may seem to be no way out of a predicament. But God, because of His faithfulness and love, always comes through and makes a way when one appears impossible.

For that, He truly does deserve all our praise and worship, even though that could never ever be enough. 

God, as the song points out, is always loving and quick to forgive. He loves us when we’re on the highest mountaintop, experiencing happiness and joy. But, even more amazing, He loves us just the same when we’re struggling and in the valley. His love and faithfulness do not change depending on the circumstances of life.

God be the glory, indeed!

Deuteronomy 7:9 “Know therefore that the Lord your God, he is God, the faithful God, which keeps covenant and mercy with them that love him and keep his commandments to a thousand generations;”

A talented musician gave an inspiring and moving performance as he sang a beloved tune, reminding Christians of God's faithfulness, love and mercy. 

Life is a relatively easy and enjoyable experience when everything is going well and according to plan. Whenever troubles and worries are minimal and the stress of everyday living remains at a manageable level, life is pleasant. But then there are instances when that’s not the case. There are times when our faith is stretched and tested. Those instances are painful and experiences everyone would rather avoid if possible.

In a clip posted on YouTube, Jason Crabb sings “God on the Mountain.” It’s a song that reminds Christians that the Lord remains the same during those uncertain and painful periods of life. He is still in control, always working and ever faithful. The lyrics remind followers of Jesus Christ that He will never leave nor forsake us. 

“For the God on the mountain
Is still God in the valley
When things go wrong
He’ll make them right”

At the end of his performance, the entire room claps and applauds, showing their appreciation for Jason’s display of his God-given talent. Some in the room are even moved to tears, with the camera catching a few wiping their eyes. However, it’s also very likely that they are showing their complete and total agreement with the song’s message.

While in the middle of a battle or a struggle, this idea of the faithfulness of God can be difficult to remember, but it is true. There will be times when our faith is tested and pushed to its limits. But this tune is an excellent reminder that God is a loving and always faithful Lord. He has never let us down. He has never given us any reason to believe He will start now. 

Deuteronomy 7:9 “Know therefore that the Lord your God, He is God, the faithful God, which keeps covenant and mercy with them that love Him and keep His commandments to a thousand generations;”

An immensely talented musician, Liv Harland, gives a moving and powerful rendition of a popular tune from Hillsong UNITED, performing in a beautiful, awe-inspiring location.

Most people enjoy and appreciate knowing what to expect in any given situation. Planning and anticipating are the best ways to combat and strategize against the unknown. However, that’s not how life often works. Instead, things – good and bad - can crop up out of nowhere, leading to confusion and the testing and stretching of our faith.

In a clip posted on YouTube, singer Liv Harland belts out the lyrics to the song “Oceans (Spirit Lead Me),” a tune about fully trusting in the Lord’s guidance and direction when the outcome is more than a little murky. The track accurately describes situations everyone has found themselves in at one time or another. The lyrics also correctly point out the feelings of fear, angst and unease that so often accompany those times. 

From the opening seconds of the video, it’s clear that Liv possesses an abundance of musical talent. Her voice is beautiful, wonderfully singing out the lyrics about having faith in God during a period of extreme uncertainty.

“Your grace abounds in the deepest waters
Your sovereign hand will be my guide
Where feet mail fail and fear surrounds me
You’ve never failed and You won’t start now”

During these periods, when the present situation and what lies ahead is unclear, simply call out the Lord’s name, as the lyrics mention. He is faithful, having never let us down up until this point. He will be there to provide help, healing, comfort and guidance. 

The stretching and testing of our faith is never ever fun. In fact, it’s often painful. But those circumstances can draw us closer to Him, forcing us to rely upon Him more and more because sometimes that is all we can do. 

Joshua 1:9 “Have I not given you your orders? Take heart and be strong; have no fear and do not be troubled: for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go.”

Check out this live performance of ‘Build A Boat’ by Colton Dixon and featuring country star Gabby Barrett.

“I've been wandering through the desert, ain't seen a cloud in forever over me
But I believe Your rain is coming, yeah, I've been hanging onto high hopes
'Cause You're the one who's making dry bones come to life, You're the light I put my trust in
Every word You say is gonna come true, You will lead me to the promised land”

What a great song that tells the story of Noah and his ark. Colton Dixon shared how the courage in Noah’s story inspired him to write ‘Build A Boat.’

“When Noah was telling people, ‘Hey, God spoke to me and said that a flood was coming,’ there’s no way people in their right mind took him seriously,” Colton Dixon explained. “How often do we let other people dictate our future? We believe what they say more than what God says.”

He continued: “‘Build a Boat’ is an anthem for anyone willing to stand up or step out for what they believe in. Just as Noah stepped out to construct an ark in the middle of a drought, faith can look a little crazy sometimes. I hope this song encourages you to go beyond what’s comfortable to experience the reward waiting on the other side of crazy faith.”

The song ‘Build A Boat’ already has over 2 million streams online, and Colton Dixon played the song for his Grand Ole Opry debut.

We hope that you were encouraged today by listening to ‘Build A Boat,’ and may it remind you to step out in faith when God places something on your heart.

These two songs go back to my childhood and teenage years. I am even more blessed by them today.
