Praise & Worship

This is a House Mix of "Praise the Lord", by Heath Bewley. The music video features 3D animation. The song is about praising God with music and dancing. I hope you enjoy it!

Listen to this uplifting song of hope titled, ‘Hold On’ by Katy Nichole during live New York Sessions. If you haven’t heard the song, let’s get your heart set up for the meaning behind ‘Hold On.’

Have you ever been on a long road trip that felt like the destination would never come? But then you see a sign that says your destination is only 50 miles away. You’d think those last few miles would pass quickly but they only seem to crawl by. The last leg of our trip can be the hardest. The same can be said about our faith in the middle of life’s toughest circumstances. Katy reminds us that when life gets off track and we feel like giving up, that’s when we hold on the tightest to the Lord.  

“Hold on just a little bit longer, I know it’s gonna be okay
These days are gonna make you stronger. You’ll find purpose in the pain
Hold on just a little bit longer. Deep down, there’s a well of faith
Let hope arise as you’re lifting up my name. And just hold on, hold on, hold on.”

What an incredible song! It reminds us that no matter what we are going through, even if the end isn’t in sight, God is holding onto us as we hold onto Him! Even in our darkest hour, God is there, pouring his love and strength into us. 

The Good Book is filled with examples of saints who cried out to God and asked, “How long?” God’s reply is “Hold on just a little longer,” because with the Lord, a thousand years are like a day in His courts (2 Peter 3:8-9). But that doesn’t mean His help and answers are a long way off. He answers in His perfect timing. In the meantime, we can lift our voices in sing the lyrics to Katy’s strength-filled song, ‘Hold on.’

May this song encourage you to ground yourself in your faith as you wait for help from the Lord. 

Psalms 121:1-2 “I lift up my eyes to the mountains—where does my help come from? My help comes from the Lord, the Maker of heaven and earth.”

Listen to this powerful live worship performance of the song ‘I Believe You Jesus’ by Jesus Culture, Chris McClarney, and Bryan & Katie Torwalt.

“I believe the words You’ve spoken, that eyes will see and graves will open
The curse of sin and death is broken. I believe You, Jesus, and though we live within the tension
Yet to see the full redemption, I know there’ll be a resurrection, I believe You, Jesus,
Bless the name, bless the name, oh the name of Jesus, shout His praise, shout His praise”

What an incredible song written by Brenton Brown, Chris McClarney, Bryan Torwalt, and Katie Torwalt. And their voices in the video sound absolutely wonderful.

The song ‘I Believe You Jesus’ is part of Jesus Culture’s new album titled Why Not Right Now? It is the group’s latest project since 2020.

“We’ve been anticipating finally sharing Why Not Right Now? with the world,” shares Jesus Culture member Derek Johnson. “We’ve captured a fresh sound that marks a new season for Jesus Culture Music, and we’re hopeful it will inspire worship in the hearts of believers everywhere.”

“Very few albums over the past 18 years of Jesus Culture worship have stirred my heart at the level that Why Not Right Now? has,” adds Jesus Culture founder Banning Liebscher. 

“Our heart has remained the same since the very beginning, and we want to see a generation encounter the presence of God and lift up the name of Jesus on the earth. We’re believing for revival in our day! Our heart is to see the Church ignited with a greater passion for Jesus and for a world that doesn’t know God to encounter Him.”

We hope that you enjoyed listening to ‘I Believe You Jesus’ and this song of worship left you encouraged today!

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.

Moe Bandy delivers a touching performance of “Thank You Lord” at Larry’s Country Diner, and guests don’t utter a sound!

Moe Bandy sings and plays, along with two other gentlemen, at what appears to be a homespun eatery of yesteryear, but Larry’s Country Diner is actually the set of Larry’s Country Diner, a variety show performed live in Branson, MO, and aired on RFD TV. With paneled walls, vintage wall decor, a rotary phone, and costumed cast members at the counter, it’s a show within a show!

Conversely, 79-year-old Moe Bandy sings with sincerity greater than that of a performer and more like a person who has gained wisdom and first-hand knowledge of the grace, love, and salvation of Christ—all described in the song written by Carter Robertson.  

“Thank You Lord” is included, along with eleven other gospel songs, on Moe’s 2023 album by the same name. The song expresses gratitude to God for His grace throughout life’s ups and downs, for the love He offers all our broken souls, and for the hope that lies in salvation. 

Here are three lines from the chorus:

And I will sing hallelujah, to You all the time
For loving a broken soul
Just like mine

Regarding his most recent album, Mr. Bandy said, “We all try to live life to the fullest and with purpose. When you get to a certain place in your life, you reflect on your past. We have all made mistakes and decisions that we may regret, but you have to look at the positives. God has been so good to me. He has given my family blessings that I never dreamed were even possible. I am so thankful to Him and wanted this album to fully reflect my faith in God.” 

Moe began his musical career in 1964, and he still performs. With numerous CMA and ACM awards, ten No. 1 hit songs, 5 Gold records, and a slew of other achievements, Moe’s got good reason to be proud. Way back in 1991, he even opened his own theatre in Branson. 

However, at the song’s conclusion, one of the hosts thanks Moe for his moving performance, and the acclaimed musician responds with true humility. He seems to know that even though the decor in Larry’s Country Diner is dated, the message he shared with his song is eternal!

“Praise the Lord. Give thanks to the Lord, for he is good; his love endures forever.” Psalms 106:1

This is a Latin Pop mix of the song, "Live Your Life for God/Jesus". The song is about making God a priority in your life. It is also about making a joyful noise unto the Lord - praising God with music and dancing. The music video features 3D animation.

A group of musically gifted young women turned in a stunning cover of “Holy Water,” a song about the Lord's love, mercy and grace. 

No one walking on the face of the earth is perfect. When sin entered the world through the bite of an apple, the world became a fallen place. Everyone has their flaws, failures and shortcomings. Achieving perfection on this side of heaven is not possible. 

God, because of His love, mercy and grace, devised a plan to bridge the gap and the rupture that sin caused between Him and man. Thankfully, that same grace and mercy is available to all today. In a clip posted on YouTube, The Detty Sisters sing “Holy Water” a tune about God’s gift of grace, mercy and forgiveness.

The five women beautifully belt out the lyrics, singing about needing the Lord’s grace and His presence in their lives on a continual, daily basis. Without His constant presence and guidance, they would surely not make it in this life.

In the song’s lovely chorus, the women sing about the priceless and precious gift of the Lord’s forgiveness. It’s one that without, no one would ever have a chance, and all would be lost.

“Your forgiveness
Is like sweet, sweet honey on my lips
Like the sound of a symphony to my ears
Like Holy water on my skin”

Each of the five women gets their time to shine in the clip. They all take turns showing off their vocal talents. 

Before God mercifully sent His Son to die as a sacrifice for the sins of mankind, no one had a chance at eternal life. People were lost and fallen, destined to live out their days in their sin and shame. Now, thanks to Christ’s death and resurrection, everlasting life with Him is possible for those who confess their sins and accept Christ into their heart and lives. 

Matthew 3:11 “Truly, I give baptism with water to those of you whose hearts are changed; but he who comes after me is greater than I, whose shoes I am not good enough to take up: he will give you baptism with the Holy Spirit and with fire:”

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. 

“Be still and know that I am God,” Psalm 46:10.

Three unbelievably talented musicians share their gift for creating pleasant sounds with an instrumental performance of the beloved hymn “Come Thou Fount of Every Blessing.”

There is a reason why the same old hymns are still played in churches and performed by musicians. Songs like “How Great Thou Art,” "Great is Thy Faithfulness,” “What a Friend We Have in Jesus” and “Amazing Grace” are all so beautifully written and eloquently praise and worship the Lord. 

In a clip posted on YouTube, the group Simply Three plays the hymn “Come Thou Fount of Every Blessing.” None of the musicians in the video sing a word. Instead, they let their fingers do the talking. They nimbly and expertly play their instruments, providing a powerful, moving and thoroughly enjoyable rendition of the hymn. 

“Come Thou fount of every blessing
Tune my heart to sing Thy grace 
Streams of mercy never ceasing
Calls for songs of loudest praise”

Simply Three’s version of the old church hymn is more than worthy of a few listens. Their playing is fantastic, giving it an almost rock-and-roll feel and sound. 

In addition to the wonderfully pleasant sounds, the video is also a treat visually. The video is absolutely gorgeous, making full use of the landscape and the sunlight. Viewers are given wide, sweeping views of expansive mountain ranges, vast deserts and crystal blue waters. 

Several others who commented on Simply Three’s video mentioned how they adored the group's rendition of the hymn and the magnificent views captured in the clip.

“Love it! Love the up-tempo..Love the scenery..my goodness, where was this film with the river? So beautiful,” one person wrote.

“I love this! Beautiful song, it’s so relaxing and giving me joy. And those views? So stunning,” someone else added.  

“Gorgeous video, guys!” another YouTube viewer posted.

A former American Idol contestant has turned in another dazzling performance as she sang about the wonder, power and righteousness of the Lord.

This past season of American Idol was chock full of talent. There were dozens of outstanding performances and 10 or so contestants who could have easily taken the top spot. However, Iam Tongi, from his first appearance on the program, set himself apart from everyone else. He continually did so throughout the season and was eventually crowned the winner of American Idol. 

But there was one contestant who always gave Iam a run for his money, Megan Danielle. Megan, in her every appearance on the show, sang songs of praise and worship. Thanks to her beautiful voice, the young woman made it to the second spot, becoming the runner-up. 

Now, Megan is back. In a video posted on YouTube, she is once again singing about the Lord, His faithfulness and His purpose for her life. Megan gives a stunning rendition of “Oceans (Where My Feet May Fail).”

Megan, before her performance, mentions that the song serves as a reminder of why the Lord placed her where He did. 

“You know, I love this song because here lately, I’ve been doubting who I am, and I forget why God put me here,” she says. “And this is just a reminder.”

She then delivers a stunning, jaw-dropping cover of the popular Hillsong UNITED hit. 

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

The young woman, while singing about God’s unending grace and love, shows why she impressed millions and captured so many votes on American Idol. 

While she may have doubts about her musical future, anyone who hears her voice does not. Megan is a supremely talented musician. She has a bright future, singing about the goodness and faithfulness of the Lord. 

Hebrews 13:8 “Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever.”
