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

"A Love Song" by Seek and Surrender: The Three-Stranded Covenant

(By Jasper Tan) We always see people say "I love you" to someone, professing their love to that significant other. But we often see how a marriage united by love easily shreds to tatters, and we ask ourselves, "Why?" Where did it all go wrong? How did something joined together by love easily get broken and be accepted as "falling out of love"? But the biggest thought that comes to mind while listening to Seek and Surrender's latest song, "A Love Song," is: do we really understand what it feels like to love? In Seek and Surrender's song, there are countless lines in which the singer professes his love to his bride. It seeks to highlight the sincerity of his love, the magnanimity, the pureness. But in those lines, there's this line that we all should focus on —  "If Christ gave Himself for His bride, Oh, then I'll give myself for mine." Do we know how Christ gave himself for his bride (the Church)? He sacrificed himself w...

John Mayer's Secret to Writing Catchy Song Lyrics

John Mayer's Secret to Writing Catchy Song Lyrics by Kapa Freeman  Why are John Mayer's song lyrics so easy to remember? It comes down to human psychology. I am notoriously bad at remembering song lyrics, except for John Mayer's Songs. Other artists may write a song I remember here or there, but John Mayer does it consistently. Why? I discovered the reason when I was working full-time as a teacher. Teachers can always tell when they're losing students. When those eyes start to glaze over, when that one eyebrow raises in confusion and someone yells out... "I don't get it!"  I got those a lot when I first started teaching. Talking to other teachers, I soon discovered why. I was giving too much information at once. I would vomit these elaborate explanations, thinking that more information would help clear things up... But they just got confused. Talking to my teachers reminded me of lessons I'd learned while getting my teaching degree:  "People remem...

"I Lift My Eyes (Psalm 121)" by Cindy Clark: A Psalm Turned Present-Tense

Cindy Clark's "I Lift My Eyes (Psalm 121)" was born during a special friendship. The backstory that Cindy shared says it all and deserves to be shared with a larger audience.  Cindy wrote:  "In 2024 I had the honour of meeting a young lady named Stephanie. This was what I would call a divine appointment, and it changed my life. Unfortunately I didn't have a lot of time to get to know her, as her health took a turn for the worse and she ended up in the hospital for a few weeks before passing away at the early age of 25. The time we did have together she shared a little bit of her journey with OCD/addiction and it was heartbreaking. During this season I met with her weekly, and prayed for her daily. Every time I did I would sing this old Vineyard worship song by Brian Derksen's called "I Lift my eyes up". For 4 months I sang that worship song numerous times a day, when one day I felt that inner prompting in my soul, this voice whisper "go and sin...
