Vertical Worship - Blessed (CCM)

Vertical Worship - Blessed
Vertical Worship has released a Christian Contemporary Music (CCM) track called Blessed.

The Beatitudes serve as the inspiration for this new track. Quoting Vertical Worship: “The first line of the sermon on the mount, ‘Blessed are the poor in Spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven’ are words that we may be familiar with, but hold a profound invitation from Jesus. It is not those who have it all figured out, or have all the answers that will know more of His kingdom, but rather those who recognize their need of Him. And more of Him means more of His rule, His reign in my life. His law is love and He comes near with mercy.”

They continued, “So, quite simply, that’s where the song started, from a place of remembering, a place of trust that when we turn to Jesus, we gain more of Him. And more of Him means more of His presence, His peace, His love. For what does it matter to gain the whole world, but forfeit our soul? What a gift that we get to at any moment recognize our deep need for Jesus. And in recognizing, He draws so near to us and we get to know more of Him, that One who knows us full well.”


Lyrics:

Blessed is the poor in spirit
Blessed is the one in need
For every thirst and every hunger 
You are everything
 
Blessed are the worn and weary
Blessed are the ones who grieve
In every moment unexpected
You are everything
 
To seek You is to find You
To know You is to want You
And I want nothing more than You
To see You is to love You
And I can’t believe I get to
I want nothing more than You
 
Blessed is the mercy giver
Blessed is the way of peace
I will trust Your heart and hand
You are everything
 
Take this world and give me Jesus
Take this life and give me Yours
In every season You are the blessing
Jesus You are my reward

"My Love of Christmas (Peace Starts in Me)" by Avery Stafford: One Heart at Peace Can Change the Room

Peace begins in a willing heart. When did you last open your own time capsule? Avery Stafford found a time capsule somewhere in his mind and opens it in his song “My Love of Christmas (Peace Starts in Me)”. His time capsule contained a Folgers can filled with buttons and thread, a crystal globe, a denim patch, and the scent of Avon cologne. Seemingly ordinary treasures, but each one carries a Christmas that he’s never stopped loving. Avery blends gospel warmth with soulful pop to speak to the child in all of us, the child who still believes that Love leads the way. In the bridge, he wishes that child well, “forever dancing under the starlight with stories yet to tell.” The song also reminds us that memories alone cannot fix a restless / broken world, and he knows it: “We long for happily ever afters, but none of us really knows.” So where does peace begin? Not in a headline, a treaty, the outcome of the midterms, or a December calendar. Paul gives us an answer in Colossians 3:15: “And...

"You Are Holy" by Spirit Worship: Honest Worship When Hope Runs Thin

Honest worship starts exactly where your pain is. Years of loss pushed the songwriter behind “You Are Holy” into a wilderness. Loved ones died, jobs and homes disappeared, health and finances faltered, and a church plant that failed. Most worship songs felt dishonest to him during that season, so the Psalms became his lifeline. “You Are Holy” sits down beside you and tells the truth. “It’s hard to be patient with nothing but time.” “It’s hard to be hopeful when everything dies.” Have you ever whispered something like that? That’s okay, it’s what we do next that makes a difference! “Yet though I am suffering, I’ll trust in Your name.” David faced that same kind of challenge in Psalm 13. He opens with “How long, O LORD?” and lands here: “But I have trusted in your steadfast love; my heart shall rejoice in your salvation.” His circumstances barely moved between the first verse and verse five, but his gaze did. You can do the same today. Be honest with God. Tell Him exactly how heavy e...

"Digging Ditches" Brandon Drit: Preparing for Water You Can’t See

Obedience comes first. The rain comes later. Brandon Drit knows what dry seasons can feel like. His song, “Digging Ditches”, opens on a desert road, with strength fading and a question that probably sounds a lot like yours: “How much longer will this last?” The message of the song grew out of 2 Kings 3:16, and it also marks his first professionally edited and mastered release, a ditch of its own, dug in faith. Picture the following scene. Three armies are stranded in the wilderness with nothing to drink. Then God sends Elisha with a strange order: dig trenches in the dry valley. The promise that follows sounds impossible: “You shall not see wind or rain, but that streambed shall be filled with water, so that you shall drink” (2 Kings 3:17). Digging in a drought will seem foolish to some. Who on earth shovels dirt for rain that hasn’t shown up? Only the people who trust the One who promised it. We’ve seen similar promises happen before (e.g., Noah), and in 2 Kings 3 we see it happenin...
