Check out this great new song and fun music video for Lauren Daigle’s ‘These Are The Days.’

“People out there, people out there, let go of your cares, turn your cries into loud hallelujahs
This is what we came for. Oh yeah, leave all your worries behind. We know the future's
Burnin' bright, this is the great jubilation, this is what He came for, what He came for
Oh, these are the days, these are the days, these are the days we been dreamin' of”

What a vibrant and joyful song! And the lively music video will have you dancing on your feet and singing along! Through the lyrics and melody, Lauren Daigle is proclaiming hope in the form of the good news. She reminds us that we can leave our worries behind and rejoice, because this is the life that Jesus gives us. He came so that we may have life and live it abundantly.

Lauren Daigle acknowledges that everyone has struggles and walks through dark times, like in the lyrics: “We thought we’d never see the sun through the dark skies.” But then we are reminded in the song that our struggles and burdens do not define our stories: “if it’s not good, then it’s not over.” 

Because of Jesus, we all can know and be filled with wild hope. Because of Him, true and lasting joy is possible. And the mix of Lauren Daigle’s strong vocals and lyrics with the fun and upbeat instrumentals in this song clearly delivers this message.

We hope that you enjoyed listening to ‘These Are The Days’ by Lauren Daigle and the song was able to bring a smile to your face!

John 10:10
The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full. 

Listen to this beautiful song that reminds us that Jesus is our anchor and all that we do, all that we are revolves around Him. ‘Christ Is The Center’ performed by Danny Gokey, and The Belonging Co, ushers us into a moment of reverence as we are reminded how Christ paid the ultimate price for our sins. In moments like this, we need to lay down our burdens, agendas, and offenses and open our hearts up to repentance. 

“In the morning, in the evening, You’re the one thing we are seeking
We come boldly. We are open to You now. You are healing all division
You are mending all that’s broken. Make us holy, make us holy like You are.”

The Belonging Co is a church worship group based in Nashville, Tennessee. They proudly state Jesus is above all. Written on their website, “We desire encounter over entertainment, intimacy over industry, presence over presentation, people over position, and Jesus over everything.” 

Some days, we struggle to put our feelings and circumstances aside and put Christ above it all. However, God loves us and reminds us of His love when we get distracted. Sometimes it’s not easy to keep Christ at the center when we are pulled in dozens of directions. In order for Jesus to be the center of your life, it means we give Him complete control. Why wouldn’t we want Him to be in the center? He created us. He has a purpose for us, and He is faithful. When we turn to Jesus and surrender, He does a much better of running our lives than we can.

In this genuine, awe-inspiring moment of worship, Danny Gokey and The Belonging Co sing our heart’s desire, we want Jesus and nothing else. We hope this worship video gave you a moment to praise God and thank Him for loving you!

Matthew 22:37-38 “Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind. This is the first and greatest commandment.”

Gifted artist Danny Gokey releases a lyric video for his song ‘No Pressure.’ He knows a thing or two about the pressure of life and the pressure to be someone Jesus can be proud of. In the midst of striving, we sometimes lose sight that nothing we do or don’t do will earn us favor with the Lord. Sometimes striving in life through careers, achievements, and awards misplaces Christ from the throne of our hearts. But the Lord gently reminds us of his infinite grace and the depth of his love for us. 

In this moving video, he sings: 
That there's no pressure to be someone
Other than who You love
I can let my stress fall to the floor
There's no pressure to earn Your grace

He then brings us to the point of giving everything over to Jesus as he sings:
You gave it all away
I don't have to be perfect
You tell me I'm worth it
There's no pressure (no pressure)

This powerful song reminds us we need to stop striving, stop fighting with God and surrender. Surrender the worry, the pain, and the struggles. As we lay our worries down, he fills us up with his peace. Danny is no stranger to struggle and striving. He lost his first wife to a congenital heart disease before he found himself competing in American Idol. As the season finale came to a close, Danny went from being one of the top three contestants to losing and going home seemingly empty-handed. What he didn’t know was how God was working all things together for Danny’s future in order to glorify Christ through music. 

Since then, Danny has released several albums and is now a popular Christian music artist. His music inspires others to rise up from the ashes and focus their hearts and souls on their savior. May this worship song help you reflect on how much Christ loves you unconditionally as it melts away the pressure.

Listen to ‘Life On It’ by TobyMac and Sarah Reeves in this official lyric video. TobyMac released a new album in 2022, two years after the tragic passing of his oldest son. In the midst of his grief, he honestly didn’t know if he would ever perform again. However, God met TobyMac in his grief, and through his journey of healing, he learned to put his life on God’s truths.

As the song begins, TobyMac sings of his unwavering commitment to God. No matter what comes his way, he will always remain in Christ: 

“You're my way and my truth, I'm a disciple of You
Through the highs and the lows, my heart will always stay true
They could put me in chains, they could lock me away
They would slay me in vain, I will always remain”

This groovy song deals with the depths of pain, needs, and struggles while reminding us God is with us as he walks through the valleys and mountaintops. TobyMac praises how Christ died for us and we can put our lives on his sacrifice and truth! He also shares tangible and relatable moments in his life where he was walking a path of grief. 

We all can relate to moments in our lives when something unexpected or tragic happens that leave us reeling and wondering why God would allow it. We will never know the answer on this side of heaven why God allows circumstances and situations. But we do know God will work things together for our good and his glory. 

We are all faced with a decision: live for Christ or die for nothing. But the truth at its core is that we would rather live for Christ than get distracted by meaningless things here on earth. The key is keeping our eyes on Christ and our hearts saturated in his promises. We hope is song rejuvenated the fire within you to keep living a life dedicated to Jesus! 

“For to me, to live is Christ and to die is gain,” Philippians 1:21.

Listen to this great song by Lauren Daigle titled ‘Be Okay’ and be encouraged today.

“You're gonna be okay. You're, you're gonna be okay, oh, the sun will keep on risin'
In that old familiar way, and every little thing is gonna be okay, you're gonna be alright
Darlin', you're, you're gonna be alright, 'cause the stars'll keep on shinin'
Through the darkest night and you can know you're gonna be alright”

This beautiful song is part of Lauren Daigle’s new full-length self-titled album. The project’s first ten songs came out in May, and another thirteen songs will be released this September. All twenty-three tracks showcase the singer’s stunning and powerful voice and her incredible musicality.

Lauren Daigle recently shared how the song ‘Be Okay’ came about and why it means so much to her.

“I wrote this track with my friend Ellie Holcomb, and it’s so special to me. Whatever hardship you may be going through – in joy or in sorrow, in strength and in weakness, there is a promise that we can hold on to that God works together good things for our good,” Lauren said. “You may be feeling like you don’t have purpose on this earth, or you don’t know what your reason for being here is, but I promise you it will all be okay.”

Many people online shared how the new song was encouraging to them and lifted their spirits.

“Wow, this has a chance to be one of those forever go-to songs. She just has a way to touch people right where they're at. What a beautiful soul,” comments one person on YouTube.

“Beautiful song, Lauren! Thank you for sharing your identity and your gifts from God with all of us! You make the world a better place!” writes another person online.

We hope that you enjoyed listening to Lauren Daigle’s song ‘Be Okay’ today!

Listen to this upbeat, foot-tapping song titled, ‘Take It To The Cross’ by Katy Nichole in New York Sessions. 

“You’ve spent so many sleepless nights. Worries racin’ through your mind.
You’re breakin’, is your soul achin’. You’ve got all this shame inside.
The kind that people try to hide. You’re hurtin’, are you searchin’
Well, I know there’s a place you can lay all your burdens down.”

The first verse of the song captures our daily troubles of adulting and trying to get ahead in the rat race of life. But Katy’s music turns our heads away from our problems and puts our eyes squarely on the cross with a reminder of how we can take our burdens to our savior. 

We can lay ourselves at the feet of our “Mercy Giver.” She reminds us God will wash our sins away in Jesus’ name. Along with washing our sins away, God will break the chains holding us back. All we have to do is take it to the cross. 

It’s such a simple concept, but we lose sight of it when we’re faced with the daily realities of life. Parenting, bills, health struggles, relationship challenges, and laundry. Laundry is never done! But the Lord knows and sees our lives. He wants to lift our burdens and replace them with his spiritual joy. I love Katy’s music vibe of southern gospel revival with a hint of country.

What I love even more about her music is Katy takes challenges and trials of her own life and creates music we all can relate to. This 22-year-old has faced congenital scoliosis, depression, and pain, but she stands in victory with God who healed her. She can’t help but sing of his miracles and faithfulness to remind her listeners, to take all your burdens to the cross. 

"Whoever wants to be my disciple must deny themselves and take up their cross and follow me. For whoever wants to save their life will lose it, but whoever loses their life for me will find it,” Matthew 16:24-25. 

Check out the new official music video for the song ‘What Are We Waiting For’ by for KING + COUNTRY.

“Can't be what we can't see, can't speak when we can't breathe, can't dance if we don't
Move our feet. It's a blur tryin' to keep pace. Days are running like they're in a race
Can't move if we're in our own way. I guess the crisis is we've just one life to live
And no one knows what happens next, so what are we waiting for? What are we waiting for?”

This great song is part of for KING + COUNTRY’s new album, also titled What Are You Waiting For. It was released earlier this year after a long period of self-reflection and personal growth for the band during the pandemic. Some of the lessons learned about family, spirituality, and unity are reflected in the messages on the 13-song album.

When it comes to the message of the song ‘What Are We Waiting For,’ the band members of for KING + COUNTRY shared their thoughts.

“So often we deal in statements in life — about ourselves, about God, about others. And yet, if you look at Jesus’ life, He often dealt in questions. We have found it very relieving and exciting to start writing from that place, and ‘What Are We Waiting For?’ stands as just that,” the singers explained.

“One of our favorite lines in the whole song is ‘What are we praying for? What are we saving for? What if we could be the light that no one could ignore?’ We’re proud to ask these questions alongside you, and we hope that you find your answers as we’ve found ours,” they shared.

We hope that you enjoyed listening to and watching the official music video for ‘What Are We Waiting For’ by for KING + COUNTRY today!

“Count ‘Em,” Brandon Lake’s new official music video, is packed with powerful images and words. You may need a few views to identify and absorb them. You’ll most certainly want to watch it on replay!

The video opens on a set that mimics a dark city street. Brandon sits and leans against a newspaper vending machine as he reads a flaming copy. Inside the case, The Prodigal Times features a front-page story with the heading “The Greatest Miracle Of All Time.” And, for the next four minutes, Brandon Lake enumerates a laundry list of Jesus’s greatest miracles! 

The photo under the newspaper’s headline is an empty tomb, but Jesus’s resurrection is only one miracle mentioned in the song’s lyrics. You might want to reflect on each of them cited, testing yourself on the details of the Bible story-not-story referenced.

Brandon himself portrays a miracle in the video. Looking like a stereotypical problem (or prodigal) adult man-child, he is surrounded by a group of black-clad singers. With tattoos and lots of jewelry, Brandon does not look like the choir boy of our old-school imaginations, even though he grew up in church as a pastor’s kid.

With a quick switch to a brightly lit room, Brandon walks to a clothes rack that holds a single white robe. A tag on the robe reads “Miracle Child” underneath a photo of Brandon. He holds the tag a few moments before we are back in the dark.

Four lines of one verse go as follows:

All those funerals You ruined when You made the dead rise 
Heaven’s healer using spit and mud 
To open blind eyes 
You got wonders I can’t number     

The artist doesn’t waste a line, referring to “raging seas” and “prophecies,” Goliath and Thomas. 

Just past the halfway mark at 2:13, the lights come on briefly, and the volume goes down. There is a tone change, reflective of the conversion, that is dramatized in the video. 

He studies the white robe’s tag once again, pockets it, and puts on the robe. And, within the next minute, all of the black-clad singers do likewise. It’s very impactful!

Brandon and friends smile, dance, sing, and rejoice in their fresh, pristine robes for the next 40 seconds—they represent lives changed by Jesus! After all, He’s still doing miracles every day! The newspaper has been consumed by fire, but the true story lives on.

“He performs wonders that cannot be fathomed, miracles that cannot be counted.” Job 5:9

Listen to the beautiful song ‘Come Thou Fount (I Will Sing)’ performed by Chris Tomlin and be reminded today of all the blessings that God gives us.

“Come thou fount of every blessing, tune my heart to sing Thy grace, streams of mercy
Never ceasing, call for songs of loudest praise, teach me some melodious sonnet,
Sung by flaming tongues above, praise the mount I'm fixed upon it, 
Mount of Thy redeeming love, here I raise my Ebenezer, hither by Thy help I'm come”

Hymns like ‘Come Thou Fount of Every Blessing’ have withstood the test of time. It was written back in 1758, but church congregations still sing out these lyrics today. 

As the hymn says, Jesus sought me when a stranger, wandering from the fold of God. Jesus came to us while we were still sinners, not after we had cleaned ourselves up and gotten our acts together. He came right into the middle of our wandering.

The message of the song still resonates with believers, and Chris Tomlin’s rendition continues to remind us that God is by our side. His love and mercy reign down on us each and every day, and what a blessing that is! I am forever grateful that Christ pursued me and poured out His grace upon me, and songs like this are great reminders of that.

We hope that you enjoyed listening to Chris Tomlin’s version of ‘Come Thou Fount (I Will Sing)’ today and the song was able to bring you some encouragement. Let us use these words to sing of His many wonders and unconditional love.

Ephesians 2:8-9
For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God— not by works, so that no one can boast.
