Aaron Shust - Majestic (Psalm 8) (CCM)


Aaron Shust - Majestic (Psalm 8)

Aaron Shust's song 'Majestic (Psalm 8)' is a beautiful expression of praise to God for His greatness and the wonder of His creation. The lyrics are based on Psalm 8, a powerful piece of scripture that acknowledges the majesty of God's name in all the earth. As Shust sings, 'O LORD our Lord, how majestic is Your Name in all the earth.'

Shust writes: 'I took a walk under the stars on the January night I wrote this song in 2022. I got a crick in my neck from staring at the night sky while I walked, singing these ancient words to the Maker of Heaven + Earth over and over. I knew it would become one of my favorites.'

The song reflects on the vastness of the universe and the stars, and marvels at how God, in all His splendor, remembers humanity. Shust asks, 'What is man that You remember us? The Son of Man that You would visit us?' These lyrics remind us that God is intimately involved in our lives, despite our smallness in comparison to the vastness of the universe.

As the song continues, Shust praises God as the Creator of the starry sky and the universe, crafted by His hands. He repeats the question, 'What is man that You remember us?' emphasizing how God has shown great love to humanity through His Son, Jesus Christ.

The bridge of the song includes a reference to Hebrews 2:6-9, which speaks of Jesus being made a little lower than the angels, and crowned with glory and honor. This verse emphasizes the special place that God has given humanity in His creation.

'Majestic (Psalm 8)' is a beautiful song that encourages us to reflect on the greatness of God and His love for us. It is a reminder of the awe-inspiring beauty of creation and the special place that we have in God's plan. Listening to this song can be a powerful way to connect with God and experience His presence.

'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...

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...

"Follow Jesus" by S.D.G.: Unity Through One Teacher

"Follow Jesus" by S.D.G. (Soli.Deo.Gloria) is a song that started in a miraculous way. S.D.G. shared that 95% of the song lyrics, melody, and harmony came to mind completely unexpectedly in 1–2 days. He compares it to lightning, lightly, seemingly without his effort, as if somebody else from High sent it all to him and said, "do it"!  A song sparked by the realization that many people just say, "Has not been born on earth yet… // Man who can wisely teach me life." But look at Jesus! He's already here, sowing love and offering wisdom that is way beyond human understanding.  The song challenges us to reflect on our feelings of pride and self-reliance: "When I do say - I'm always right… Am I not blind?" It invites us to exchange our arrogance for humility and reminds us that Christ already lives among us and guides us with His grace. "Jesus - He lives in our midst, // He's the best teacher that the earth has ever known!"   Th...
