Daniel Spriggs - Let There Be Light (CCM)


Daniel Spriggs - Let There Be Light

'Let There Be Light' is a beautiful song written and performed by Daniel Spriggs, an Ohio-based musician. The song was written during a particularly difficult time in his life, where he found himself driving on icy backroads during the end of winter, feeling the effects of seasonal depression. In the midst of the dark and cold, he started singing the song's lyrics.

The song speaks of making way for more of God in our lives, asking for His guidance and light to fill up every space and illuminate our lives. It acknowledges Jesus as the only Name that can make the darkness hide and tell the sun to rise. The lyrics beautifully describe the desire to belong to God and the longing to be reminded of that belonging, especially in the midst of difficult times.

Daniel's vocals in the song are passionate and heartfelt, and the instrumentation perfectly complements the message of the lyrics. It is a song that inspires hope and encourages the listener to turn to God even in the darkest moments.

'Let There Be Light' is a beautiful composition that showcases Daniel Spriggs' talents as a musician and songwriter. It is a song that will resonate with anyone who has ever felt lost or alone, and will undoubtedly leave a lasting impression on those who take the time to listen to it.

"Your Love" by Kevin Winebarger - When Mercy Becomes Your Identity

Kevin Winebarger teamed up with Joshua Frerichs and Benji Cowart to create this beautiful song. "Your Love" tackles that discouraging voice we all hear from time to time, the one that whispers that we're not enough and that we are defined by our past. "Once a liar, always a liar," and all kinds of variations along this same line of thought. This song isn't about wallowing in shame. "Your Love" is a celebration of the grace that changes everything.  The opening lines hit hard: "I could believe that I'm not enough // It's clear to see I don't measure up." Yep, we've all been there! But this isn't how God want us to be defined… He loved us first! "It's just what You've done // Because of Your love." That's the heart of everything.  Kevin places the change the God brings into perspective, "I could believe that my mistakes // Will follow me down into the grave // But I'm not who I was....

"Simple Pursuit" by John Long: Finding Joy in the Everyday Moments

John Long wrote "Simple Pursuit" after realizing he had spent years chasing the next big thing for God, but in the meantime his family suffered. The real grand moments aren't found on a stage (or at work), they are found in moments like at the supper table, in bedtime prayers, in the waking of children in the morning, and while standing with a brother in his laughter and sorrow.  It's in those moments that we will find God: "My reward is knowing that you're closer than my breath." It's these moments that make us ask ourselves why we are chasing the applause when the King is already within whispering distance. Instead of building towers, John Long suggests choosing a slower, lower altar: "I will live a life that's slower… I find my joy here in the… still." This song is one of those beautiful nudges in life, one that challenges us to trade the big race for the rhythm of "ordinary days." The lyrics point us to the real and simp...

'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...
