TheReal D.Tel - Surrender (CHH)

TheReal D.Tel - Surrender
TheReal D.Tel has released a Christian Hip Hop (CHH) an album called Kingdom Music. The highlighted song from this album is called 'Surrender'. 

Story behind the album 'Kingdom Music':

TRD shares: "When I was 12, I started writing music about things that I thought were cool and heard in songs at the time like: women, drugs, sex, violence, partying non-stop and being a good person gets you nowhere. That kind of music influenced my future decisions on what kind of songs I would start recording, which continued until I realized it.  I also thought it was cool to do the things I said in my music like:
Violence - the more violent the better (in songs)
Womanizing - the more woman you have sex with the better
Drugs and Alcohol - The higher and more drunk you are the better
Partying - Neglect all responsibilities if partying comes first

As I started making better decisions in life through God, my music was still the same and then I had a revelation.  I heard a random Christian song and it was so powerful and positive and full of joy and truth, I cried because it touched me.  I knew, even though I was saved and prayed all the time, something didn't feel right...That's when I started to question myself about the musical direction I was going in:

Would your music inspire or motivate the world?
Does your music help people who listen to it?
Does it make you feel good when you listen to your music?
If someone close died would your music help you cope?
Does your music give hope?

Unfortunately, all the answers to those questions were no...but I kept praying. One day I woke up and knew it was time for a change because beforehand, the decision to jump from all secular music to all Christian music was difficult until now because it was clear...it was peaceful.  I rewrote every song that was about to release and from that moment on, instead of making the music I thought I wanted to make, I vowed to only make Kingdom Music."

I am releasing 'Kingdom Music' to show that no matter what you're going through or what you have been through, it is never too late to turn your life around with Christ and get on what you've been called to do.

The message that I hope listeners take away is to be bold with your believing and endeavors because anything is possible with God."

The highlighted song is called 'Surrender'. 'Surrender' is intended as a reminder that God knows best for you, trust in Him to guide you through.


Lyrics:

let's go

every day every night (every day every night)
i surrender to Christ (I surrender to Christ)

covered with your blood protects like a shield (protects)
God is a big deal (big deal)
never seen begging for a meal (never) look

broke free from the devils hypnosis (free)
i'm gonna feed life to my inner man (life)
at rest when i move into the promise land (rest)

"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...

"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...

"The Manger King" by Prestonwood Worship: God With Us, Hope For The World

Where do you find hope this Christmas? “The Manger King” by Prestonwood Worship opens with a question and gives you no time to dodge it: “Can you hear it? Can you see it now?” A strong male lead and a full choir carry the song, with strings, piano, synths and drums building a sound big enough for the news it brings. The news is Emmanuel, “God with us” . Matthew 1:22–23 gives the name its meaning: “All this took place to fulfill what the Lord had spoken by the prophet: “Behold, the virgin shall conceive and bear a son, and they shall call his name Immanuel” (which means, God with us)” . Think about that. The Creator of Heaven and Earth chose a feeding trough, a cold night, and a poor family. He didn’t shout from a distance. He came close enough to touch. The lyrics make it clear how Love came, “In the silence, heaven touched the ground.” Does your silence feel heavy? Are you going through a hard season, a strained family table, confronted with an empty chair? Do you believe He enters ...
