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.

"Is Anybody There? (Psalm 27)" by Stephen M. Miller: Holding On to Grace at Heaven’s Door

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. "I said it and I did it, Lord // Broke more hearts than I'll ever know // I can't fix this, though I've tried // Don't be angry, and please don't go." 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 ...

"Fishers of Men" by Tyler Philip Ratcliffe: Dropping Your Nets and Following Without Looking Back

Jesus doesn’t call the qualified. He qualifies the called.  “Fishers of Men” by Tyler Philip Ratcliffe was written back in July of 2024. It was the first Christian folk-style song that Tyler had ever written, and he had no idea at the time that God was going to pull him in that direction. It’s a favorite among his friends and family, and God recently laid it on his heart to share it with the rest of the world.  The song draws from the ordinary moments when Jesus walked up to fishermen and tax collectors and said two words that changed everything: “Follow Me.”   What strikes you in the lyrics is the honesty. “My friends thought I was crazy, and my folks just shook their heads.” Following Jesus has always looked strange from the outside. Peter left a fishing business. Matthew walked away from a lucrative government post. Neither of these men had it all figured out, but they simply responded to a call they couldn’t ignore.  Maybe you also know that feeling. The moment ...

"Born Again" by PeterLs: One Decision, One Lifetime of Walking With Jesus

Some choices mark the beginning of an entirely different life.   In a small Polish town called Podkowa Leśna, a choice was made that PeterLs has never stopped celebrating. Twenty-two years ago, he stepped into the waters of baptism and came out a different person. “Born Again” is his testimony — honest, grateful, and filled with the kind of faith that continues to grow. “Twenty-two years ago, I chose the life, to follow Jesus, day and night.” This isn’t a song that celebrates that specific moment twenty-two years ago; it’s a celebration of every moment since then!  The song has an interesting detail that is worth pointing out. The total duration of the song is 3:16, which in turn is a deliberate nod to John 3:16. This is the scripture where Jesus told a Pharisee named Nicodemus, “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life.” Eternal life isn’t something you can earn. It’s something you recei...
