New Horizons Worship - Leaving Empty (CCM)


'Leaving Empty' by New Horizons Worship is a powerful worship song that encourages listeners to give everything they have to Jesus, just as He gave everything for us. The lyrics speak of costly worship, inspired by examples such as the widow who gave her last mite and the expensive perfume poured on Jesus' feet. The ultimate example of costly worship is Jesus, who emptied Himself on our behalf (Phil. 2:7), and the song encourages us to pour out our lives at His feet and give Him all the glory and honor.

The song is filled with passionate lyrics, such as 'I wanna give you my last dime like the widow did,' and 'I'm leaving empty, I'm leaving empty.' The song speaks of losing all dignity and laying it all at Jesus' feet, in radical abandonment to the worthy One. The chorus repeats the phrase 'You're worthy, You're worthy of it all,' reminding listeners that Jesus is deserving of all our worship and praise.

New Horizons Worship - Leaving EmptyThe bridge of the song declares that 'I will dance like no one's watching,' expressing the freedom that comes from giving everything to Jesus. The song concludes with a final declaration that Jesus is worthy of it all.

'Leaving Empty' is a powerful and uplifting worship song that encourages listeners to give everything to Jesus and worship Him with radical abandonment. The lyrics are passionate and heartfelt, and the song is sure to inspire listeners to worship Jesus in a deeper way. I highly recommend giving this song a listen, and allowing it to stir up radical surrender and worship in your heart.

"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...
