'Beauty for Ashes' by Emmanuel: A Harmonious Testament of Faith Amid Despair


Divine melodies often serve as a comforting balm in the midst of life's trials and tribulations, gently encouraging us to press on. 'Beauty for Ashes,' an impassioned gospel anthem by Emmanuel, a soul-stirring ensemble of eight female vocalists, is found among these extraordinary melodies.

Emmanuel - Beauty for AshesThe harmonious resonance of this song reminds us of the wondrous transformation we go through with faith—from the ashes of trials to the beauty of triumphs. Each note and lyric conveys a powerful message about God's gracious act of giving freedom through His love. As the ensemble sings, 'You loosed all the chains, now I'm free,' listeners are reminded of the distinct liberty that comes with surrendering to God's endless love and compassion.

'Beauty for Ashes' depicts an inspiring image of unwavering faith in the face of challenges. It expresses the beauty of trusting your life to God and celebrating the newfound strength that comes from faith in Him. As the ensemble sings, 'Lord, it's because of you, I am here today,' one can't help but feel the comforting hope that comes from a deep relationship with God.

Allow this musical tribute to faith's transformative power to uplift and inspire you. Experience the strength that comes from surrendering difficulties to God and receiving beauty in their place.

Skillet has released a Christian Contemporary Music (CCM) track called Valley of Death. The global health crisis of the last two years has led to numerous questions regarding why bad things happen to good people. Skillet's John Cooper explains why he believes God allowed the pandemic to happen. Skillet has released their new album Dominion through Atlantic Records last Friday (Jan. 14). A discussion with 'Loudwire Nights' host Toni Gonzalez brought up the track "Valley of Death," which contains the lyrics: "Someone said this is all part of the plan / But I don't understand." Gonzalez then asked him why he thinks God would allow a pandemic. This is what Cooper said: "Well, the first answer is that we're not good people. We're all fallen and we are all in desperate need of salvation through Jesus. So, we're not actually good people, we all do bad stuff. We all cheat, we've all lied, we're all greedy and as much as the most lov...

"How Glorious" by Red Letter Society is a Trinity-focused song that pulls you into worship. Written by Justin Tweito and Jordan West, the song calls us to return to the heart of our faith. The opening line, "How wonderful is the cross of Christ,"  draws us into praise.  The song invites us to repentance and faith, but more importantly, the lyrics magnify the Trinity: the Father's eternal plan, the Son's sacrifice, and the Spirit's ongoing work in us. The song celebrates how every part of God is involved in redeeming us!  Have you ever wondered how a song can feel so unifying? That's the beauty of this song! It calls us, the Church, to stand together in bold praise. Instead of focusing on what divides us, it points us upwards, looking to our God who is glorious in love, power, and purpose. It encourages us to see the love of the Father, the blood of the Son, and how it is applied by the Holy Spirit.  There's no abstract theology in this song… the ...
