Lyrics:

Head so heavy on the pillowcase
Eyes staring out the window pane
The harder that I try
The more I lose the fight

Think I'm fine then here it goes
What if's and scenarios
Betrayal by my mind
Feeling paralyzed

I'm hanging by a thread
Everything keeps running through my head
Can't stop the chaos around me
But I can surrender what's in me

Be my peace
Be my light
Be my one and only
Through my fear
Day and night
Be the one who holds me
Father give me new life
Spirit renew my mind
Oh, be my peace
Be my light
Be the one who gives me rest

My rest

Try so hard just to make it work
Head down hands in the dirt
Carrying the weight
Hoping it's okay

Smile and try to cover my emotion
But I'm really drowning in an ocean
It won't go away
So I guess I'm not okay

Be my peace
Be my light
Be my one and only
Through my fear
Day and night
Be the one who holds me
Father give me new life
Spirit renew my mind
Be my peace
Be my light
Be the one who gives me rest

My rest

Being scared isn't sinful
But God sometimes I'm forgetful
That You're right here in the middle
Father help me remember

Being scared isn't sinful
But God sometimes I'm forgetful
That You're right here in the middle
Father help me remember

That You want to carry this for me
This isn't the end of my story
Your love is forever restoring
Forever restoring

Yes You want to carry this for me
This isn't the end of my story
Your love is forever restoring
Forever restoring

Be my peace
Be my light
Be my one and only
Through my fear
Day and night
Be the one who holds me
Father give me new life
Spirit renew my mind

Be my peace
Be my light
Be the one who gives me rest
My rest

'Lonely Dirt Road' by Dax: A Journey to Solitude and God

Dax's 'Lonely Dirt Road' is a conversation that Dax has with himself and God. Dax shares his journey of turning mental health walks into healing solitary drives. As you listen, you can almost feel the cruise, where it's just you, your thoughts, and God.  The chorus is so relatable: 'When I need space, that's where I go, a place to escape that nobody knows.' What do you do when life's pressures stack high? Do you also have a space where you can let go? That lonely dirt road that Dax sings about symbolizes solitude, but it is also an incredible opportunity for connecting with God.  Dax's honesty is raw and relatable. 'I didn't want my family to see me cry… dealing with the pressure of trying to provide.' There are times when we all put on a smile to hide how challenging situations may be.

Avery Stafford's "Manna (Come on Down)": A Reminder of God's Faithfulness

Avery Stafford's "Manna (Come on Down)" is a beautiful reminder that God never forgets us. The song was inspired by Avery's own journey of faith. He remembers how excited he felt as a 7-year-old standing in front of a church in San Jose, CA, when he said "yes" to Jesus. Avery has that same fire and excitement for God's constant presence and provision today.  The song's title is a nod to a youth rally called Mannafest, emphasizing that God continues to provide for us amidst life's challenges, just as He provided manna in the wilderness. God reigns, even though hopelessness, loneliness, and disappointments constantly plague our world. The acts and consequences of people's choices can distract our focus from God. It is through lyrics like "Remind me, Lord, just why I need You living in my dreams" and "Spirit, come on down," that Avery calls us to remember God's unending faithfulness and reignite our initial love and de...
