Ben Buhler - By My Side (CEDM)


I'm writing about Ben Buhler's Christian EDM track 'By My Side,' and I'm struck by how powerful the lyrics are. The lyrics take me to a place of reflection and gratitude for God's constant love and presence in our lives.

'By My Side' is a song about feeling lost and alone, but also knowing that God is always by our side no matter what. The lyrics are very personal, and they speak to the daily struggles that many of us face. Buhler sings in the first verse about being alone in a corner, wondering why no one is home, and feeling lost and afraid. However, when he turns to God, everything changes.

Ben Buhler - By My SideThe song's chorus is extremely powerful, and it conveys a message that we all need to hear. Buhler sings about not wanting to go another day without God and how God will always be there for him. He admits that he has no idea where he would be without God, but he knows he would be living a lie. It serves as a powerful reminder that no matter what we face, we can always turn to God for comfort and strength.

The song's second verse is equally powerful, with Buhler singing about how he will never be alone because God is always close by. He explains how God is with us in the rain and storm, and how He always makes it clear that He is there for us. The imagery in this verse is incredibly vivid, and it demonstrates Buhler's songwriting power.

If you're looking for a song to lift your spirits and remind you of God's love and presence in your life, I highly recommend giving 'By My Side' a listen. You won't be sorry.

"What A Savior" by Will & Jacinta Ellis and Crossing Life Worship: Never Growing Numb to Grace

Have you ever grown numb to a miracle?  “What A Savior” by Will & Jacinta Ellis and Crossing Life Worship began as a chorus in a co-write, before it took on a life of its own. Will & Jacinta wanted something rich and almost hymn-like, a bold declaration of who Jesus is — not a tired restatement, but a fresh look. They never wanted to grow “used to” what Jesus accomplished, so they wrote about holding on to Him in every season, regardless of whether it’s calm or chaotic.  The opening lines start with the redemption through Jesus’ blood: “The precious fount, that cleansing flow, the Son of God poured out for all.” That’s the blood that Jesus spilled for you. The song moves from the cleansing through His blood to the result: “The debt I owed and all sin’s claims were buried with You in the grave.” Your debt. Buried. Gone.  Here’s where it gets even more personal. Romans 5:8 says, “God shows his love for us in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.” ...

"If Jesus Danced" by Cameron Pruitt: Making Room for Laughter in Your Walk with God

Does your faith leave room for laughter? Can you imagine Jesus kicking off His sandals, dancing to a rhythm only He can hear? Strange thought? Maybe, but Cameron Pruitt’s song “If Jesus Danced” asks exactly that: “Sometimes I wonder if Jesus danced.” It’s a question worth pondering. Most of us picture Jesus as solemn, serious, carrying the weight of the world. But rarely do we picture Him laughing so hard that “the room relaxed.” Cameron insists this joy was real. Jesus wasn’t just a teacher of hard truths. He was, as Cameron sings, “the life of the party, radiant friend.” He warmed hearts. He had humor. People wanted to be near Him, not because He demanded reverence, but because His presence felt like sunshine. This connects to Psalm 16:11: “You make known to me the path of life; in your presence there is fullness of joy; at your right hand are pleasures forevermore.” Joy isn’t a distraction from faith. Joy is the destination. God doesn’t just tolerate your happiness; He included j...

"Hallelujah Anyway" by Zach Garrett: Praise That Doesn't Wait for the Storm to Pass

What if worship doesn’t require having answers? Storm clouds hide the stars. The road stretches on with no map and no end in sight. That’s the world Zach Garrett describes in the opening lines of “Hallelujah Anyway,” and if you’ve walked through a season of loss or confusion, you already recognize the setting. Zach wrote this song from inside real darkness, in his case, a stretch of loss, hurt, and unanswered questions that didn’t resolve on his timeline. Zach’s message is that we don’t need to wait for clarity before we choose to worship. Like Zach, we may need to make that choice daily, sometimes hourly, possibly even through gritted teeth. The bridge describes a common misconception: “I used to think that faith meant having all the answers, that doubt was just a sign I wasn’t strong enough to stand.” How many of us carry that same lie? We assume that real faith looks certain, steady, unshaken. We get confused when it isn’t! Zach flips the definition of faith: “Maybe trusting You me...
