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.

Stephen M. Miller's "Is Anybody There? (Psalm 27)" comes in the quiet aftermath of the Christmas celebrations, when reflection can feel like isolation. Stephen's song isn't about polishing away his mistakes, nor does it encourage you to do so with your mistakes. Stephen shares his painful experience, "I never saw it coming Lord // It felt right but it was wrong // Family and friends have left me // But I still have you and a song."   Stephen owns the fallout of his actions, taking accountability without despair.

His song is a prayer for God's presence and guidance. "Hear me when I call you, Lord // Don't turn your face away // Don't give up on me like others have // Come help me through this day." Stephen describes a fear that we too experience when we ...
