Betty Lyles - Prayer Time (CCM)

Betty Lyles - Prayer Time
Betty Lyles has released a Christian Contemporary Music (CCM) track called Prayer Time.

Betty shares: "Prayer Time was written back in 2011 for my youth choir at Mount Rose Missionary Baptist Church in Houston, Texas to sing at devotion for prayer. We needed a song that would be short and sweet for them to learn and prepare the congregation for prayer. The Lord placed it on my heart to write this song. We sang the song a few times during the year, but after that, we returned to our old repertoire of songs written by other composers. A few months ago I thought about Prayer Time and decided to go on Fiverr to hire a vocalist, rapper, synth bass, and lead guitarist to accompany me (I’m playing the keyboard) on the song. I was quite pleased with the outcome and decided to release the song, hoping it will inspire someone who’s feeling hopeless to go to God in prayer."

Lyrics:

[Chorus]
Prayer time, prayer time, prayer time
Prayer time, prayer time, it's prayer time
He will, he will answer
He will answer, it's prayer time

[Verse]
Hey! Yeah, ah, come on
In dark times we need a prayer, just wanna put my hands high and keep 'em there
No matter what you're going through, no need to fear
Just gotta keep faith, remember He is here
When the money's low, or when you're feeling lost
He died for you, He paid the ultimate cost (prayer time)
Things might seem tragic, but he can make it happen (yeah)
Bring you out of the storm for life everlasting
We're all looking for love and for purpose (prayer time)
And when I look at the world, my heart's hurting (oh-h-h)
'Cuz people suffering daily, can't handle (oh, it's prayer)
Trying to survive and just needed an answer
I pray for peace and I know it will get better
With help from the Messiah, the Alpha, Omega (better)
He gave me the good news, I just wanna share mine (he)
If you're looking for him, all you need is some prayer time (prayer time)
Oe, ah, o, ah

[Chorus]
Prayer time, prayer time, prayer time
Prayer time, prayer time, it's prayer time
He will, he will answer
He will answer, it's prayer time

Sarah Kroger, Nathan Jess - Belovedness - Live (CCM)

Are you tired of feeling inadequate and alone in your struggles? Have a look at Sarah Kroger's 'Belovedness,' a powerful ballad that reminds us of our worth as children of God. Initially released on Kroger's sophomore album, 'Light,' during the peak of a global healthcare crisis, 'Belovedness' quickly found a following among those battling mental health challenges. The revisited live version, recorded in a barn-turned-studio in the UK countryside, offers a sweet, intimate take on the song, featuring Northern Irish singer-songwriter Nathan Jess on vocals. Kroger wrote the song during a period of personal growth, as she discovered the truth of her identity through reading Henri Nouwen's 'Life of The Beloved.'

'The Fall' by Josh Wright: Embracing Healing Through Pain

Josh Wright's new song, 'The Fall,' is about the dark and heavy moments that often come with loss, grief, and sin. Most of us have been there, feeling a deep sense of guilt and shame. But that is not where God wants us to linger! Yes, it's important to understand the consequences of our actions, but there is also a next chapter. God wants us to 'get up' and 'keep going.'  Josh beautifully sings about this next chapter in 'The Fall.' With lyrics like, 'I didn't want the valley, I didn't want the dark,' you can feel the pain and reluctance that Josh experienced. He continues, 'Nobody wants to stumble or ever hit the ground. Nobody wants to have to hurt for healing to be found.'   Josh emphasizes that although we're not looking for pain, it does play an important part in understanding God's love. If there is no contrast, e.g., no pain, then how will we be able to appreciate God's love and plan for us? This is how
