Long Hollow Worship - The Wonder (CCM)


As a Christian music lover, I am always on the lookout for songs that will truly resonate with my soul. And I have to say, Long Hollow Worship's 'The Wonder' is definitely one of those songs.

The lyrics of 'The Wonder' speak of the amazing love and sacrifice of Jesus Christ, who was fully God and fully man. He left His throne in heaven to rescue us, and His victory over death means that we too can have victory over death.

The song begins with the lyrics 'Beyond what I can understand, Fully God and fully man.' These words immediately capture the awe and wonder of the incarnation, the fact that the infinite God took on finite human flesh to save us.

The chorus of 'The Wonder' repeats the phrase 'Oh, the wonder of it all' three times, emphasizing the sheer magnitude of what Christ did for us. The bridge continues this theme, proclaiming that 'It's the wonder of Your glory, Of how much You love us, It's the wonder of Your goodness and Your kindness.'

Long Hollow Worship - The WonderBut the song doesn't just focus on the abstract wonder of God's love. It also acknowledges our own sinfulness and the fact that we are the ones in need of rescue. The lyrics of the second verse declare that 'If You would leave the ninety-nine, And I'm the one You came to find,' highlighting the fact that Christ's sacrifice was not just a general act of love, but a specific act of love for each and every one of us.

The final verse of the song celebrates the victory of Christ over sin and death, proclaiming that 'Hope was lost until day three, When You arose in victory, oh, You have shattered sin's decree, The death of death is life for me.' These words are a reminder that the resurrection of Christ is not just a nice story, but a historical reality that changes everything.

I encourage you to listen to 'The Wonder' by Long Hollow Worship and let its message of awe and wonder sink deep into your heart. Let it remind you of the incredible love of Jesus Christ, who left His throne in heaven to rescue you and me. I pray that this song will inspire you to live a life of wonder and gratitude, always remembering the incredible price that was paid for our redemption.

"King Of All Nations" by Ezra Worship Initiative: Sing Today What Heaven Will Sing Forever

Your worship today echoes eternity. Ezra Worship Initiative trains young worship leaders through a ten-week, seminary-based internship. Their songwriters learn Scripture first and melody second. You can hear this in their latest release, “King Of All Nations,” a song written for congregations to sing. The song opens as a prayer: “May Your Name be proclaimed in all creation.” Who does the proclaiming? The Church does. The second verse asks God to “send Your Church to go and tell the gospel story,” which puts all who sing this right inside the request. Who on your street has never heard His name from you? Then the chorus lifts the roof: “All the honor, voices lifted to the King.” Worship here is not a performance. It is sung as a community, young and old, a multigenerational voice of praise. The bridge looks ahead. “All will come, and all will bow.” John saw the same moment: “a great multitude that no one could number, from every nation, from all tribes and peoples and languages, stan...

"Man of Sorrows" by Lauren Gruwell: Jesus Feels Your Pain With You

Jesus knows your pain before you speak it. Lauren Gruwell knows what it is when Jesus feels unreachable. Trauma in her childhood left her with deep sorrow, and for years Jesus seemed too far away. She didn’t think she was good enough to come near Him. Are you also familiar with that feeling? Do you sit in the dark, tears falling, and wonder: “… no one knows but if they did, would they care?” Lauren shares: “It wasn’t until He changed me, that I realized that HE has felt all the pain I’ve ever felt, and that He loves me regardless.” The Savior that she thought she couldn’t approach had already walked her road. This song, “Man of Sorrows”, grew from that discovery, and it carries a promise for anyone who hurts: “And all of my hurt, He felt it first…” . Jesus hurts right beside you. In Isaiah 53:3, we read that He was “a man of sorrows and acquainted with grief.” Then comes the line that changes everything: “Surely he has borne our griefs and carried our sorrows.” Our griefs. Our sorrow...

"My Side" by Dan Read: Proof That God Never Leaves Your Side

You can ask God the hard questions. Dan Read doesn’t tiptoe around hard questions. His song, “My Side”, opens with a whole bunch of questions: “Where is the rudder that keeps me afloat?” “Where is the anchor when I know I shouldn’t go?” “Where is the sail that guides me home?” Have you ever asked God something that blunt? Dan also admits what he can’t see. “I don’t know what the future holds.” “I don’t know why we hurt sometimes.” No tidy answers follow. Every one of these questions lands in the same place: “I look to the heavens.” Notice what he does with his doubt. He lifts it instead of hiding it. The writer of the book of Hebrews (we don’t know who the author was) gives that habit a solid footing: “We have this as a sure and steadfast anchor of the soul.” In other words, waves still roll, and our Anchor holds anyway. The song makes this personal. Dan sings that he has “heard stories about the peace that you bring” and heard of God’s power in the songs we sing. But seeing it ...
