Praise & Worship

One of the biggest names in Christian music – Brandon Lake – performs a beautiful song about praising the name of Jesus everywhere, even during the hard times and the struggles.

Life isn’t always exactly a ton of fun. As everyone knows, hurt, heartache and loss are genuine parts of this experience called life. Sometimes it feels like that no matter what we do, we can’t win or even draw even. 

However, while it may be difficult to do so, the Bible instructs us to praise God in all situations, even during the bad, trying circumstances of life. In the official music video for his song “Praise You Anywhere,” Brandon Lake reminds us that He is to be praised everywhere and anywhere.

The track's opening verse encourages Christ's followers to give Him praise. The lyrics talk about specific places and times when thanking God may be the furthest thing from our minds. Nevertheless, God is to be praised. 

“Sometimes you’ve gotta dance through the darkness
Sing through the fire, praise when it don’t make sense
Sometimes you’ve gotta stare down the giant
Worship from the lion’s den”

When facing these situations, everyone would agree it'd be and is hard to praise God. But Brandon, near the end of the song, adds why he is so willing and able to praise God in the tough times. God has been faithful and kept every promise. There is no reason to doubt He will ever change.

What a wonderful reminder that while it may be difficult, Christians are to praise God and find joy in all situations, even when they are less than ideal. He is still working, and is still in charge, even when it may not appear that way or feel like it. 

James 1:2-4 “Let it be all joy to you, my brothers when you undergo tests of every sort. Because you have the knowledge that the testing of your faith gives you the power of going on in hope; but let this power have its full effect, so that you may be made complete, needing nothing.”

Check out this stunning video of The Isaacs singing the hymn ‘It Is Well’ in Israel.

“It is well (it is well)
With my soul (with my soul)
It is well, it is well with my soul”

What an incredible sound! All of their voices are amazing, and their harmonies are just heavenly. No wonder there were so many people gathered around them watching them sing; they truly are wonderful to listen to.

The Isaacs were singing ‘It Is Well’ in Israel in the ancient city of Magdala. Magdala developed as a fishing village and a center for fish trade as it was on the crossroads next to the Sea of Galilee. It was also the home of Mary Magdalene.

Many people online shared how much they loved The Isaacs and their music.

“One of my favorite groups. Beautiful harmony,” one person writes on YouTube after watching the video.

“I love The Isaacs!  And one of my favorite songs!” another person comments online.

When it comes to The Isaacs, they are a multi-award-winning family group that began singing 35 years ago and is based out of Hendersonville, TN. 

The vocalists are mother Lily Isaacs and siblings Ben Isaacs, Sonya Isaacs Yeary, and Rebecca Isaacs Bowman. The group plays their own acoustic instruments and are sometimes joined by other band members. The Isaacs have a unique musical style that blends tight family harmonies with contemporary acoustic instrumentation that appeals to a variety of audiences. Their group’s musical style has been influenced by many genres of music including bluegrass, rhythm and blues, folk, and country, contemporary, acoustic and southern gospel.

So far in their music career, The Isaacs have won over 7 Dove Awards in various categories and have had several Grammy nominations. How wonderful that they are able to use their talents to spread the message of hope!

Listen to this incredible live performance of the worship song ‘Miracle In Me’ by Red Rocks Worship.

“Jesus, my healing, I will reach for Your hem, my great physician, death is not how it ends 
The work was finished at calvary, Your body broken so mine is complete 
My testimony of faith will be, because of Christ there’s a miracle in me  
Because of Christ there’s a miracle in me”

What a powerful song performed by such talented artists. And it is amazing to see Red Rocks Worship lead that entire room in such a moving moment of worship.

“Now, come on, you guys. If He said it, He means it,” says the lead vocalist to everyone in the room halfway through the worship song. “If He said it 2,000 years ago, it is finished. And He meant it with all of His heart. Which means that you cannot remove yourself from His grace. And that means you cannot remove yourself from His love. It was purchased with His blood, and it was sealed with His resurrection. Come on, let’s sing this out. There’s power in the cross! Let’s go!”

Many people online were also moved by the song ‘Miracle In Me’ by Red Rocks Worship.

“Phenomenal! Red Rocks Worship, you never ever disappoint! Praise the Lord!” writes one person on YouTube after watching the music video.

“Thank you, Jesus. There is a miracle in me, and I am healed. Thank you for this song, it is a blessing,” comments another person online.

Red Rocks Worship is the worship ministry of Red Rocks Church, which was founded in 2005. It is one church in multiple locations, including four Denver-area campuses, one international campus, and two God Behind Bars campuses in Colorado prisons.

Red Rocks Worship is comprised of worship leaders and songwriters who have a passion to bring their love of Jesus to people through music. The heartbeat behind their music is to cultivate communities of believers that pursue God’s presence.

We hope that you enjoyed listening to ‘Miracle In Me’ by Red Rocks Worship today!

A collection of talented musicians performs a track about how Christ can and will meet all the needs of those who earnestly seek and search for Him. 

The world is full of hurt, struggling and fallen people. Sin, since it entered the world with a bite of forbidden fruit, has gone on to wreak havoc on our society. War, sickness and death are just a few of the consequences of the disobedience in the garden all those years ago. 

However, thankfully, God has made a way. Due to the excruciating and wholly undeserved death of his son Jesus Christ on the cross, sinners can now enjoy everlasting life with Him. But, like any gift, Christ’s blood, spilled on the cross, must be accepted before it can be of any use. 

In a video posted on YouTube, Joshua Aaron and a group of talented musicians sing “Spirit and the Bride.” The tune is about Christ being the answer to all our needs and worries. He is the beginning and the end, all we could ever need. He provides those thirsty and who seek Him, those who call out His name, with water that will never leave them thirsty again. 

“And let the one who is thirsty come
Behold! The Alpha and Omega
Beginning and the end
In Him we will never, never thirst again”

In the video, the musicians play at the Garden Tomb in Jerusalem in front of dozens of people who take in the dazzling performance. At various times throughout the clip, two women, in white dresses, elegantly dance about as the band performs. 

What a beautiful song about the power, majesty and love of Christ! 

Revelation 22:17 “The Spirit and the bride say, ‘Come!’ He who hears, let him say, ‘Come!’ He who is thirsty, let him come. He who desires, let him take the water of life freely.”

This is a cover of the song, Lord of Hosts (Psalm 46) from Shane & Shane.

Listen to this beautiful worship song titled ‘Live Up To Your Name’ by Danny Gokey and featuring Mariah Bernard and Legacy Worship.

“There are records of Your goodness, spread across the earth, endless stories of the wonders
Of the Wonder Worker, You are worthy of Your fame, testimonies from the broken
Show You still heal wounds, and we named You the Way Maker
Cause You made a way through, You are worthy of Your fame”

What a powerful worship song! And the message within the song reminds us that God’s different names can directly affect our faith simply by knowing them. He is known as Abba, Yahweh, Father, Jireh, Healer, Protector, Redeemer, Promise Keeper, Great I Am, as well as many other names. And these names are reminders of who He is and give us new ways to praise His name.

Danny Gokey shared some of his thoughts on the song ‘Live Up To Your Name’ and its place in modern worship music.

“‘Live Up to Your Name’ is a unique title for the song, because it's not a typical worship statement. A typical worship statement is we love You, we adore You, and there's no one like You. We are starting a case in this song, and there are multiple examples of how we say it in the song, that there are records of Your goodness,” he said. “With endless stories of the wonders of the Wonder Worker, God has fame that has lasted throughout the generations.”

Many people online have shared how this worship song has impacted them

“I love your music, it soothes my soul and gives me peace,” comments one person online after watching the music video.

“I'll be sharing this with those who need this reminder today!” writes another person on YouTube.

May this worship recording of ‘Live Up To Your Name’ encourage you today and help you reflect on all the ways that God has lived up to His name in your life.

Psalm 9:10
“Those who know your name trust in you, for you, O Lord, do not abandon those who search for you.”

Title says it all.

Check out this powerful worship song that invites us virtually to be a part of praising the Lord Jesus. 'Holy Forever' live performance from Chris Tomlin, Jenn And Brian Johnson.

This beautiful song begins as Christ Tomlin starts to sing about a thousand generations falling down in worship to sing to God. The chorus sings: 

“And the angels cry, Holy. All creation cries, Holy
You are lifted high, Holy. Holy forever”

Jenn Johnson sings the second chorus, and it adds a gorgeous female vocal line. The harmonies are wonderful to hear. As we witness this beautiful setting of worship to God, we ourselves cannot help but join in the praises of the Savior. 

We find ourselves also even lifting our hands in the beauty of this worship to the one who is God, Jesus. He is truly reigning on the throne. This melody and these lyrics are easy to sing along with, yet powerful to proclaim that the Lord is who He says He is and He is worthy of our praise. The angels themselves will cry holy forever.

Maybe you need this reminder today that the Lord is on the throne, and He is holy forever and always. We are His creations, and He is our God. 

He is far beyond what we could ask or think, and songs like this minister to our souls. He is so worthy, and total honor and glory belong to Him alone in every area of our lives. When we accept Jesus as Savior, we are His for all eternity.

“To Him who sits on the throne and to the Lamb, be praise and honor and glory and power forever and ever." Revelations 5:13

In this video, i felt the power of worship as the koinonia worship team took the church deep into soaking worship. It was a refreshing moment in the presence of the LORD.

From the moment that I wake up, until I lay my head, oh I will sing of the goodness of God
And all my life You have been faithful, and all my life You have been so, so good
With every breath that I am able, oh I will sing of the goodness of God”

The song ‘Goodness of God’ is so beautiful, and Jenn Johnson of Bethel Music shared about how the song came about during the adoption process of their son, Ryder.

“During the adoption process, I found myself driving on a long country road. I was just singing to the Lord when I recorded a song on my phone about the "faithfulness" and "kindness of God." I wrote and sang most of "Goodness of God" as an overflow of my heart at that moment,” she said.

Our new album 'All Amazed' is filled with arrangements that we absolutely love, so please check them all out and let us know your favorite track(s) and why. Love you guys!” the band writes.

According to their YouTube page, Simply Three “has been captivating audiences worldwide with high-octane performances since 2010. Acclaimed as ‘having what it takes’ (Boston Philharmonic) and ‘highly imaginative and well played’ (Maine Today), Simply Three continues to receive praise for their ability to impress listeners with a multitude of genres that span from Puccini and Gershwin to artists such as Adele, Coldplay, and Michael Jackson. 

By reshaping convention through this style of genre hopping, the trio continues to seek the true essence of classical crossover with original works as well as innovative arrangements that showcase their technical virtuosity and heartfelt musicality.”

In this music video, Simply Three is playing the hymn ‘Be Still My Soul’ while heartbreaking scenes of loss and destruction flash across the screen. But as the song takes a more hopeful turn, a sense of resilience is felt. It is a beautiful and thought-provoking production from the talented trio.

We hope that you enjoyed listening to Simply Three’s version of the hymn ‘Be Still My Soul’ today.

Several supremely talented young people beautifully performed a Lauren Daigle hit.

Lauren Daigle is one of the biggest names in Christian music today. Already in her young career, Lauren is responsible for producing such hits as “Rescue,” “Trust in You,” and “Thank God I Do.” However, her most popular and recognizable song is, without a doubt, “You Say.”

Lauren’s songs are also popular targets for covers. YouTube is littered with videos of other musicians covering her hits. Once again, “You Say” appears to be the most covered of her songs. One of those groups who performed Lauren’s massive hit is the Rise Up Children’s Choir.

In a video posted to YouTube, approximately two dozen children sing the 2018 track, which experienced huge crossover success. The children, who wear long, golden gowns and suit jackets and ties, sing in an intricately and elegantly decorated cathedral.

The short, one-minute video perfectly captures the group’s outstanding vocal performance of the popular song. Their harmonies are beautiful, with different parts of the choir vocalizing separate sections of the song all at the same time. It’s literally music to the ears of those in the audience and anyone who views the clip. 

The children’s performance is terrific and likely to be appreciated by anyone and everyone who is lucky enough to come across it. 

On the About section of their YouTube channel, the choir states they are “Utah’s premiere contemporary vocal performance group.” The choir is on a mission to change the world with music, literally. They describe their aim as to “uplift, entertain, and transform our world through music!”

Rise Up Children’s Choir is made up of members between five and 18 years of age. 

1 Corinthians 14:15 “What is it then? I will pray with my spirit, and I will pray with the understanding also. I will sing with the spirit, and I will sing with the understanding also.”

Check out this final song from Air1’s worship session with Cody Carnes as he performs “Take You At Your Word.” You may find yourself on your feet and singing along with these spirit-filled musicians!

There’s nothing better than a beautiful old hymn. “In the Garden” and “The Old Rugged Cross” speak to our souls, often moving worshippers and sometimes mourners to tears. There’s also nothing better than a rousing, upbeat tribute to Jesus.  

Christian singer, songwriter, and worship leader Cody Carnes was born in Atlanta and raised in Texas, and Dallas is where he began making music while serving as the worship pastor at Gateway Church. His solo career was launched in 2017, and these days the three-time Grammy nominee lives in Nashville with his wife, Kari Jobe, and their two sons. The couple now serves in their home church, The Belonging Company.  

Here, he sings and plays the acoustic guitar. Cody is joined by a keyboardist, electric guitarist, and percussionist, as well as a dozen or so background singers—hands raised, eyes closed, dancing, smiling, heads bobbing, fists pumping, and emitting joy. They are a pleasure to watch and hear!

The words of the song give them and us a reason to be joyful. 

Here is one verse of Cody’s 2022 song:

It's a narrow road that leads to life
But I want to be on it
It's a narrow road, but the mercy's wide
'Cause You're good on Your promise

Unfortunately, there aren’t a lot of things that we can be certain about; people fail one another all the time. We can, however, trust in Jesus. He is true and trustworthy! The folks singing, playing, and praising together during this worship session feel that. They know that to be true!

Air1 is a Christian American radio network, founded in 1986 under another name, that has as its mission “to create compelling media that inspires and encourages you to have a meaningful relationship with Christ.”  

“Your kingdom is an everlasting kingdom, and your dominion endures through all generations. The Lord is trustworthy in all he promises and faithful in all he does.” Psalms 145:13 

Listen to this powerful worship performance of the gospel song ‘The Blood Will Never Lose Its Power’ by Jason Crabb.

“The blood that Jesus shed for me, way back on Calvary, the blood that gives me strength
From day to day, it will never lose its power, it reaches to the highest mountain
It flows to the lowest valley, the blood that gives me strength, from day to day
It will never lose its power, it soothes my doubts and calms my fears, and it dries all my tears”

This music video of Jason Crabb singing ‘The Blood Will Never Lose Its Power’ was filmed live at The Mabee Center in Tulsa, Oklahoma back in 2022. Jason’s voice is incredible, and listening to him singing this song along with the other members on stage is very moving to hear. What an incredible message and such a wonderful worship performance!

“Good ole fashion gospel. Praises to the King,” comments one person on YouTube after watching the music video.

“Thank you for this beautiful song. The blood will never lose its power,” another person writes online.

Jason Crabb has had an impressive singing career so far and has won a Grammy and 21 Dove Awards, including being named the Gospel Music Association’s Dove Awards Artist and Male Vocalist of the Year along with Song of the Year.

According to his website, since his first solo release in 2009, Jason Crabb has “performed at many of the world’s most prestigious stages such as Carnegie Hall, the Grand Ole Opry, the Brooklyn Tabernacle and Billy Graham’s final crusade in NYC. 

He has also shared the stage with artists such as Gloria Gaynor, Kari Jobe, Vince Gill, Mary Mary’s Erica Campbell, Donnie McClurkin, Wynonna, Brad Paisley, Blake Shelton, Michael W. Smith, Jamie Grace, Sandi Patty, the Oak Ridge Boys and more.”

We hope you enjoyed listening to Jason Crabb sing ‘The Blood Will Never Lose Its Power’ today!

1 Peter 1:18-19
For you know that it was not with perishable things such as silver or gold that you were redeemed from the empty way of life handed down to you from your ancestors, but with the precious blood of Christ, a lamb without blemish or defect.

Three talented musicians performed a beloved hymn with a timeless, moving message.

If it were not for the gift of God’s grace, no one would have a shot at eternal life. Without God, humanity would be condemned to live the rest of its days in sin and shame. However, because of God’s unending and unceasing love for humanity, He sent his son, Jesus Christ, to die and to take our place upon that cross so that “whoever believes in Him may not perish but have everlasting life.”

While many songwriters have tried to express this astounding and confounding gift of grace, no song has been able to do so as successfully as “Amazing Grace.” It’s a beautiful song, filled with memorable lyrics that so perfectly and beautifully articulate the change God’s “amazing grace” has made in the lives of many. 

In a video posted to YouTube, the trio of musicians, known as Simply Three, play a beautiful, melodic and captivating instrumental version of the iconic and beloved hymn “Amazing Grace.”

"Amazing Grace" has been played and performed thousands of times by hundreds of performers, so the lyrics do not need to be sung. The words are so powerful and moving that most already know them by heart. 

“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”

In addition to the sweet sounds created by the three musicians, the video’s visuals are stunning. There are thrilling, sweeping shots of the vast and breathtaking locations where the musicians perform. In the video’s opening moments, text points out how the Lord has blessed us with an Earth filled with gorgeous scenery and extraordinary views. 

Ephesians 2:8-9 “For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, not of works, that no one would boast.”

A group of talented vocalists performed a song about the pain and hurt associated with being alone.

Many people in the world today deal with feelings of loneliness and despair. For a number of reasons, many people perceive that no one loves or cares about them. In a period of social media and other means of instant communication, loneliness remains a major problem in our culture.

In a clip posted to YouTube, The Gaither Vocal Band sings, “I’m So Lonesome I Could Cry.” As the song title heavily indicates, the songwriter is dealing with a heavy bout of loneliness.

While the song is performed beautifully, the lyrics are very depressing. In the lyrics, the songwriter makes mention of a bird – a whippoorwill - who is too sad, depressed and lonesome to even fly.

The songwriter points out that this period of great loneliness seems to be going on endlessly. No end to the night appears to be in sight. The songwriter is in a bad mental state.

The moon, the song indicates, is also hurting. The celestial body has gone behind the clouds in order to shed tears. Once again, the song mentions another bird. A robin’s actions are also used to illustrate loneliness. 

If there was any song that would be considered the blues, it is this one. Every single line of the single is more depressing and sadder than the one before it.

Unfortunately, everyone will feel alone and hurt at times. But there is One who has promised to never leave or forsake us. In these troubled times when grief, loneliness and despair arrive, He is the one to rely upon to see us through. He has never failed and He never will.

Isaiah 41:10 “Have no fear, for I am with you; do not be looking about in trouble, for I am your God; I will give you strength, yes, I will be your helper; yes, my true right hand will be your support.”
