Sophie Keye releases 'Trinkets' (CCM)


Sophie Keye, an Australian Christian singer-songwriter, based in Ecuador, announces new single ‘Trinkets’ from her debut album. A song that calls out the hypocrisy in the church and in ourselves.

Sophie Keye’s latest single “Trinkets” pulls no punches in calling out the hypocrisy she sees in parts of the church and in herself. Each verse tackles a different way our representation of God can be distorted into something that fits our own image and agenda.

“The chorus of Trinkets “Kumbaya my Lord” conveys two things at the same time. On the one hand, it is a tongue-in-cheek way of calling out people who are superficially religious but hypocrites on the inside. On the other hand, as “Kumbaya my Lord” translates to “ Come by here, my Lord ”, ‘Trinkets’ is not just a critique of hypocrisy in the church, but a genuine cry for God to come and change the distorted ways we see Him and represent Him to the world.

'Trinkets' Lyrics

Some like the God of a box of trinkets
Keep him all locked up so safe and warm
Pick him up dust him off on a Sunday morning
And put him back when the dawn arises

Kumbaya my Lord

Others like the God of a checklist
A set of rules to follow so religiously
Helps us measure ourselves up against others
And we forget he requires mercy

Kumbaya my Lord

Some talk to God like he’s a vending machine
Press his buttons then take what you want
Nevermind about loving your neighbours
As long as you get the right flavours

Kumbaya my Lord

Bryan & Katie Torwalt - Miracle In The Works (CCM)

Bryan & Katie Torwalt has released a Christian Contemporary Music (CCM) track called Miracle In The Works. LYRICS: Some may say it’s hopeless They must have never met my God  Some may say it’s over But it was finished on the cross Some may say it’s broken But the Healer’s in the room  Some may say it’s hopeless But I know    God’s about to move...   There’s a miracle in the works I can feel it There’s revival in the church I believe it   Some may see an ocean But He’s made a highway through Some may see a mountain  But we’ve seen a mountain move Some may see a graveyard But we’ve seen His empty tomb Some may see a battle But I know   Reignite us, reawaken Breath of God, come breathe again Like the dry bones started shaking All that died will live again  Oh the miracle You’re making The beginning not the end Eternity is waiting  To see Your church alive again   You are my miracle Jesus You are my miracle   #BryanandKatieTorw...

Alexander Reign - Comeback (CEDM)

If you're looking for a song that will inspire you to keep going when you feel like giving up, look no further than 'Comeback' by Alexander Reign. This powerful track is more than just a catchy tune – it's a testimony to the power of faith and perseverance in the face of adversity. The song's background is equally inspiring. After experiencing a major setback in both his spiritual and business life, Alexander found himself feeling discouraged and hopeless. He even took a break from music for a while. But then, he stumbled upon Isaiah 52:1, a verse that spoke directly to his heart and gave him the strength to pick himself up and try again. With that newfound courage, Alexander poured his heart and soul into 'Comeback.' The result is a powerful anthem that reminds us that even when things seem bleak, we can always find hope in God's love and grace. From the opening notes to the soaring chorus, 'Comeback' is a song that will get stuck in your head a...
