Luke Garfield - Every Knee (CCM)

Luke Garfield has released a Christian Contemporary Music (CCM) track called 'Every Knee'.

Every Knee is the fifth single from The Unseen album, a collection of songs about rebellion and restoration by Gold Coast songwriter and music producer Luke Garfield.

Garfield is a seasoned songwriter and producer who spent time in Nashville honing his skills recording other artists. He is continually writing and recording new material at Banana Llama Studios on the Gold Coast, Australia.

Luke Garfield - Every KneeEvery Knee is a song that Garfield wrote one sunny afternoon while his kids were playing in the backyard

“As a father of 4 children (now 5), your time is shared between a lot of important people. So time to write songs needs to be grabbed when you can,” he says.

“Songwriting isn’t always about waiting for the inspiration to strike. Sometimes you’ve just got to take what time you can get in the midst of the busyness of life and write.”

“Every Knee was a song like this and it came together over an hour or so one afternoon while my kids were playing around me in the backyard.” Garfield says.

“Thematically, the thrust of this song is found in its first two words, “It’s simple”. The Christian life and truths are inherently simple. A saving faith in Jesus should be as easy for a child to grasp hold of and believe as it should be for a theologian.

“At the same time Jesus, who he is and the victory he’s won, is incredibly deep theologically as well as having amazing cosmological implications. This song tries to capture both this simplicity as well as the depth.”, says Garfield.

Musically the song departs from the slower ballad-like sound of some of the previous songs on the album and lands squarely in a more upbeat, pop rock vibe.

Every Knee has been sung by Garfield’s local church for the last 8 years. He’s excited to finally have a version of the song to share with everyone.

"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 ...
