'Psalm 23' Phil Wickham Official Music Video With Tiffany Hudson

Two remarkable voices intertwine in the song ‘Psalm 23’ in this official music video by Phil Wickham with Tiffany Hudson. The pairing of their powerful voices filled with a passion for worship creates an emotional ballad of our most beloved psalm of the Bible. 

The music video begins with the rich tunes of a piano as Tiffany’s angelic voice creates the background vocals before Phil declares the goodness of God as a shepherd. As the song progresses, Phil and Tiffany’s voices stairstep low notes to high in a beautiful crescendo of the bridge when they sing, “You prepare a table before me right in front of my enemies."

Psalm 23 is a psalm of comfort, peace, and deep gratitude for God’s love in a painful world. Through these Psalms, we are reminded of God’s unwavering love and protection as we walk through dark and troubled times. With God as our shepherd, we have nothing to fear. He will protect and guide us through trials until we are sitting at the table of glory where God’s abundant goodness overflows. 

“Though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death
I don't have to fear no evil for I know that You are with me
With oil of blessing, You cover my head. You fill me to overflowing, my cup is overflowing.”

Psalm 23 has been a foundational scripture for believers. It speaks of love, hope, triumph, and faith. When we read the passage we are reminded of God’s adoration and constant presence in our lives. This psalm is more than just words, it’s a song that echoes faith, strength, and security from the Good Shepherd. 

No matter what circumstances you navigate, you can sing Psalms 23 with a blessed assurance God will guide you, shelter you, and lead you in the safety of His fold. 

Psalm 23:4-6 “Even though I walk through the darkest valley, I will fear no evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff, they comfort me. You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies. You anoint my head with oil; my cup overflows. Surely your goodness and love will follow me all the days of my life, and I will dwell in the house of the LORD forever.’

'Outskirts Of Heaven' Craig Campbell Performs At Larry's Country Diner

Capture the perfect vision of the afterlife as you watch this clip, ‘Outskirts Of Heaven’ by Craig Campbell, as he performs as Larry’s Country Diner. 

I doubt there was a dry eye in the room. The song ‘Outskirts Of Heaven’ describes rural life just outside of heaven’s gates with an old dirt road and a fishing pond. He sings of blue skies, dogwood trees, and how he would gladly trade a mansion for a farmhouse with a porch swing.

I don’t know about you, but there’s something about standing in the wilderness and witnessing God’s fingerprints all over creation. Nature is one of God’s primary ways of nourishing our souls and connecting with us. His presence is etched into the wind, the wide open skies, and rippling rivers. 

Throughout the Good Book, we can find hundreds of verses about the skies, the moon and stars, ocean waves, and fields of flowers. Nature reveals God’s glory and power; it’s one of the reasons we are drawn to the great outdoors. Because of our love of nature, especially rural life, Craig captured God’s creation in a poetic fashion. 

“When I die I wanna live on the outskirts of Heaven
Where there's dirt roads for miles and hay in the fields, and fish in the river
Where there's dogwood trees, and honeybees blue skies, and green grass forever
So, Lord, when I die, I wanna live on the outskirts of Heaven”

Normally, when we imagine what heaven will be like, we think of streets of gold, mansions, and pearly gates. We know every creature will praise God as we take in the splendor of Jesus sitting on the throne. To be sure, there will be no way to describe what it will be like, but like Craig, I hope there are open skies and long winding roads. 

Psalm 8:1,3-4 “O Lord, our Lord, your majestic name fills the earth! Your glory is higher than the heavens… When I look at the night sky and see the work of your fingers — the moon and the stars you set in place — what are mere mortals that you should think about them, human beings that you should care for them?”

Lauren Daigle Performs 'Be Okay' Live On The Today Show

You don’t want to miss this candid performance. Lauren Daigle performs the song, ‘Be Okay’ live on The Today Show

This incredible song was inspired by a little girl who wrote to Lauren and told her how she was losing her battle with cancer. Lauren said, “We wrote this song to give her comfort in the time of her passing.” Lauren collaborated with Christian artist Ellie Holcomb to write the song. 

Millions around the world got to listen to how God is our savior on national television. It was the perfect song for the moment!

Between Lauren’s beautiful voice and her love for Christ, this song is a powerful reminder of how God is always by our side. Whether we are standing on a mountaintop or walking through life’s deepest valleys, God is there to offer comfort, peace, and strength. 

Lift your eyes to the hills
Remember where your help comes from
Lift your eyes to the hills
You'll never face a valley alone

When we cry out to Him, He hastens to our aid and never leaves our side. He is our true north and He is the light in the darkness as He leads us home. He will guide us every step of the way. There is no place on earth where He cannot find us. There is no battle we face that He can’t conquer. Be reminded of this as you listen to the powerful lyrics of ‘Be Okay’ by Lauren Daigle.

You're gonna be alright
Darlin', you're, you're gonna be alright
At the end of all our breath, when we're beckoned on to the light
Love'll meet you there, you're gonna be alright

These words are a soothing balm for a weary soul. It’s a reminder my heart needed to hear today. As you listen to the song, you will feel God wrap you in peace that surpasses all understanding. His love and hope will lighten your soul. Thank you, Lauren Daigle, for this song. It has provided peace and comfort to so many. 

Psalm 23:4 “Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff, they comfort me."

'Bridge Over Troubled Water' Natalie Grant And Tasha Cobbs Leonard Duet

When God doesn’t take away the troubled waters of life, He becomes the bridge to make a way through. If you need safe passage, listen to ‘Bridge Over Troubled Water’ in this beautiful duet performance with Natalie Grant and Tasha Cobbs Leonard. 

In a raw impromptu music session, Natalie and Tasha lend their commanding soulful voices inspiring hope and encouragement through ‘Bridge Over Troubled Water.’ The song was written in 1969 when America was in turmoil during the Vietnam War. The country was treading water over losing Martin Luther King and losing faith in the current president. Originally released by Simon and Garfunkel, it swept across the hearts of Christians. Simon was inspired to write ‘Bridge Over Troubled Water’ after listening to the ‘Swan Silvertones’ 1959 Gospel song ‘Oh Mary Don’t You Weep.’

Over three decades later, the troubled atmosphere of the world eerily mirrors those times. Everywhere we turn, turmoil, pain, and crisis face us. This song echos our insecurity and fears while pointing us to someone who can help us find safe passage over the raging waters. 

“When you’re down and out, when you’re on the street when evening falls so hard, I will comfort you.
I’ll take your part. Oh, when darkness comes and pain is all around,
Like a bridge over troubled water, I will lay me down
Like a bridge over troubled water, I will lay me down.”

Together, Natalie and Tasha infuse this song with promises of God’s comfort, triumph, and hope. Their performance is an intimate, raw recording session where their voices intertwine beautifully, filled with unity and resilience. Their poignant performance arrives at a fitting time to remind us God will be the bridge to safety and peace through uncertain times. Both, Natalie and Tasha’s talent shines through in this beautiful rendition that will deeply resonate in your heart. May their performance be the first of many stepping stones to take your burdens to Jesus.  

Matthew 11:28-30 “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.  Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.”

‘How Great Thou Art’ Chilling Brothers Of The Heart Performance

An unbelievably talented group of musicians – Brothers of the Heart – once again have displayed their God-given gift for sound with a performance of a beloved and classic hymn, “How Great Thou Art.”

Hymns, even though they may be hundreds of years old in some cases, still deserve to be listened to and played regularly. Tunes like “Great is Thy Faithfulness,” “What a Friend We Have in Jesus” and “Amazing Grace” are timeless and filled with so much truth.

Another of those classic hymns is “How Great Thou Art.” In a clip posted on YouTube, Brothers of the Heart turned in an outstanding and awe-inspiring vocal performance, singing about the magnificence, righteousness and wonder of the good Lord above.

Others who commented on the YouTube link mentioned how much they loved and appreciated the group’s performance of “How Great Thou Art.”

“Absolutely precious and love this group, Brothers of the Heart,” one person wrote.

“Absolutely beautiful. You can feel the presents (sic) of the Lord,” a second individual added.

“They love and believe in the words of this song. Truly inspirational. Love these magnificent men so much. It brings tears to my eyes listening to these beautiful men sing this beautiful hymn!!” another person commented.  

The hymn reminds listeners about God’s undeserving love and mercy. He sent His son to Earth, whose destiny was the cross. But instead of turning away from that agony and torture, Christ willingly went to the cross, bleeding and dying to wash away the sins of man. 

“Then sings my soul, my Savior God to Thee
How great Thou art, how great Thou art
Then sings my soul, my Savior God to Thee
How great Thou art, how great Thou art”

The hymn’s chorus is simple but utterly beautiful and memorable. Christ, because of His sacrifice, dying and suffering on our behalf, is worthy of all honor, glory and praise.

How great thou art, indeed! 

Revelation 4:11 “You are worthy, O Lord, to receive glory and honor and power: for you have created all things, and for your pleasure they are and were created.”

Brooke Ligertwood Chilling ‘King Of Kings’ Performance

One talented young woman, Brooke Ligertwood, gave an emotional and stunning performance of a beloved tune about the Lord Jesus Christ.

The world is a lost place filled with sinners who have turned their backs on God and His teachings. Despite that willful disobedience, God still showed wholly undeserving love, mercy and grace to us. He sent His Son, Jesus Christ, to Earth as a sacrifice. 

Christ willingly went to the cross, enduring a horrible and agonizing death. He took our place, and because of His death and resurrection, we have a chance. We have the opportunity for everlasting life with Him. 

In a clip posted on YouTube, Brooke performs “King of Kings.” It’s a song of praise and worship, thanking the Lord for the gift of forgiveness and salvation. He is worthy of all honor, glory and praise. 

“Praise the Father, praise the Son
Praise the Spirit, three in one
God of glory, Majesty
Praise forever to the King of Kings”

Like Brooke’s performance, the lyrics are beautiful. Those words are enough to cause even the most stoic person to become emotional. The song's words detail how much Christ’s entrance into the world immediately and dramatically altered human history forever.  

The opening verse mentions how much Christ changed everything for everyone. Without Him, all creation was without hope, sitting in darkness and living in sin and shame. But as the song states, praise God that Christ did not avoid the cross. He took on the cross and the punishment for our sakes. 

There is nothing to do but praise and worship Him for what He has done. Regardless, there is nothing that we could ever say or do that would even come close to earning salvation. It’s a gift that is offered to all freely. It’s a gift that has changed lives and continues to do so today. 

Christ’s blood, shed upon the cross, wipes away all sin. 

John 3:16 “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.”

Light (feat. William Sherry)

The world is full of injustices, but The Lord is forgiving and helps us find our way to the path of love and grace. This Contemporary Christian song by Nashville Country reminds us that if we walk the path of love God will help us find our way to peace. Lyrics and music by Clare Steffen, Music and Production by William Sherry.

Yeshua is my Messiah (Jesus, Jesus, Yes I Love Him) (Music Video) - Heath Bewley

This is a music video for "Yeshua is my Messiah". The song is about how Christ came to show the way to the God. He lived as an example for all of us, was crucified, dying for the sins of the world. He then rose to life and ascended to Heaven. Christ will come again to judge the world, reigning for a thousand years. Jesus is surely the Messiah, fully man and fully God. I hope you enjoy this meaningful and soulful Reggae song.

Born I AM

In Exodus 3:14, God said to Moses, "I AM THAT I AM." I have contemplated how the great I AM, who has always been and always will be, became a tiny human Baby inside a humble virgin. God is almighty beyond our comprehension, but it is good for us to contemplate. I have shared in this song only a very few aspects of this great I AM who humbled Himself to show us His love and save us. I pray that as you listen to this song I wrote in 2016, that you will be in awe of who Jesus, our Creator, Savior, and great I AM really is.

I Worship You Mighty God (Music Video) - Heath Bewley

"I Worship You Mighty God" is a song of praise to God, the creator of heaven and earth. Genesis says that the sky is a vault (firmament/dome). God created the land, and the sky. God made the dome (sky) to sperate the water above from the water below. The God put the sun, moon and stars within the sky. This song is more of an abridged song of creation, and praises God as the creator of everything. This song is similar to "Creation Song". I hope you enjoy this exciting, up-tempo song.
