Unspoken - Hard Times (CCM)

Unspoken - Hard Times
Unspoken has released a Christian Contemporary Music (CCM) track called Hard Times.

“Writing for this record, we sat down and asked, ‘What do we need to hear ourselves?’” Mattson says. “Sometimes you write songs just based on what sounds good, but we talked ourselves away from doing that. This song is really about transparency, just letting people in to what we were going through.”

But before they could even think about producing this song, they had to endure.


LYRICS:

Sometimes in life the road we’re on is not the one we choose
Hits home when we find ourselves in someone else’s shoes
We sing a song of victory then we sing the blues
But through the highs and lows
No we ain’t losing hope

There’s gonna be hard times
Gonna be long nights
Gonna be days when we’re praying Just to make it through
But when it goes all wrong
We gotta just hold on
The promise that you gave us
Your love will not forsake us
In these hard times

Nothing lasts forever no no
Seasons always change
Change is for the better when your love becomes our strength
You make beauty from the ashes
You cover us in grace
So when darkness tries to knock us down
We’ll lift you up in praise

There’s gonna be hard times
Gonna be long nights
Gonna be days when we’re praying Just to make it through
But when it goes all wrong
We gotta just hold on
The promise that you gave us
Your love will not forsake us
In these hard times

I’m gonna praise you
I’m gonna praise you
I’m gonna praise you in the hard times
I’m gonna praise you
I’m gonna praise you
I’m gonna praise you in the hard times
Your love will lift me
Your love will lift me
Your love will lift, lift me, lift me

Whatever may come whatever we face
We’ll never lose hope never lose faith
Ain’t nothing gonna steal our praise
‘Cause you’ve been faithful all our days
Whatever may come whatever we face
We’ll never lose hope never lose faith
Holding on to the promise that you gave us
Your love will not forsake us in these hard times

Riley Clemmons - Stuck Inside My Head - Single Mix (CCM)

Riley Clemmons has released a Christian Contemporary Music (CCM) track called Stuck Inside My Head - Single Mix. The song 'Inside My Head' was born out of a season of pain and healing. As a result, the song has a way of speaking about life's difficulties that is accessible and relatable to everyone.  "As I was writing and dreaming up this record, "says Riley, "there was never a plan to create anything but honest music, born from hurting, growing, and healing. I collected songs for this body of work much like I collected every experience I found myself in the middle of over the past couple of years... the highs & lows, the conversations with God, the questions about my identity, the heartbreak, and the healing." Although the music addresses life's hurts, it does much more than that. The trials of life, according to Clemmons, are ordained by God so we can draw close to him. "The thread that began to connect them all quickly became the idea tha...

'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. Like his father, Dax says that he finds peace on this lonely road, where challenges become opportunities to grow. This shows the core of our faith: that...
