Amanda Danziger - How Long (CCM)


Amanda Danziger has released a Christian Contemporary Music (CCM) track called How Long.

King David’s Psalm 13 reaches across the millennia asking God a question that’s troubled all people since Adam and Eve were expelled from the Garden: “How long will you hide your face from me?”

Singer-songwriter Amanda Danziger brings it into the modern era in her latest release out now, “How Long,” and shares the Good News that answers our question: “But I trust in your unfailing love; my heart rejoices in your salvation.”

“This psalm speaks to me about our human condition as we suffer depression, anxiety, grief and pain,” Amanda says. “As I read it, a song came into my heart and I transcribed it to share with you here.”




You can listen to the track on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/track/6F0a6SOiMn3uOneB6LWosW

"I Need God" by Richard Baś: Because Nothing Else Really Satisfies

Have you ever chased what you thought was peace and come up empty?  “I Need God” by Richard Baś is a song for people who keep searching and never find enough. Richard wanted a Christian song with energy and edge — something that causes listeners to experience certain emotions that are regularly not in the Christian genre. The song opens with restlessness: “These days I’m running from my own shadow,” he sings, “trying to find a peace of mind.” He tries love. He tries drugs. He tries more. Nothing changes. That’s the trap that so many of us already know. We chase one thing, then another, hoping the next thing will finally be enough… But it never really is.  There is a shift in the song. “Jesus has set me free and I, I am free now,” Richard declares. The running stops. The striving stops. Richard names it clearly: “Yeah I need God.”   The song echoes the same message that we read in Psalm 42:1–2: “As a deer pants for flowing streams, so pants my soul for you, O God. My so...

"I'm Still Going to Praise You" by Die Taube: Choosing Praise in the Waiting

Can worship survive a season without answers?  Some seasons don’t resolve on schedule. “I’m Still Going to Praise You” by Die Taube ( ‘the dove’ ) was born from one of those seasons — infertility sitting alongside a father’s cancer diagnosis, disappointment stacking on disappointment. The song is part of an upcoming album, Pilgrimage, releasing one song per month until December. The album is a crossing, not a recovery, not getting back to who one was but coming through changed. The opening line of the song sets the whole tone: “Thank You has no seasons, worship does not wait.” God’s worthiness does not depend on our circumstances. Even when circumstances stay unresolved, we decide to look beyond our circumstances to praise and worship Him.  Notice what the second verse admits. “When I feel like I’ve got nothing and other times so much”  — our praises aren’t conditional on constant victory. The song is honest about fluctuating faith, and pairs it with a steady choice underneat...

"I Love to Praise Your Name" by Chrystal: Worship That Survives the Storm

A declaration of consistent devotion and faithfulness to God (by Jasper Tan) Chrystal Williams-Alberty’s “I Love to Praise Your Name” is a beautiful and heartfelt contemporary praise and worship song. The song focuses on our devotion and adoration to our God. The lyrics are simple but deep in expression. Reminding us that to worship God is a lifelong commitment, and we should always give our gratitude and faithfulness to our loving God. The song shares a message that is similar to Psalm 34:1 —  “I will bless the LORD at all times; his praise shall continually be in my mouth.” Chrystal came up with the song from her own personal experiences where she wants to praise God even in her most difficult times. This shows us that praising God isn’t just when things are going our way, but even in the most trying times; our devotion and faithfulness to him must remain constant. This is what makes this song beautiful because it came from a place of sincerity and raw honesty. Chrystal shows her unw...
