Armstead Ford’s 'Have Mercy O Grace': A Soulful Cry for God’s Compassion

When we think that we are alone with our struggles and thoughts in the quiet moments of life, an unexpected whisper can pass over our hearts and herald a shift in our spirit. This is the journey that Armstead Ford beautifully captures in his gospel song 'Have Mercy O Grace.'

'Have Mercy, O Grace' is nothing short of a musical witness. Ford shares his personal experiences, ranging from feeling lost in the hustle of worldly pursuits to finding peace on a 'mourner's bench' during a Wednesday night church service. This spiritual offering is both passionate and tender, bringing up images of a man at the end of his rope, finally surrendering his burdens to God's unfailing grace and mercy.

It serves as a stirring reminder that when we surrender to God's grace, we are met with loving arms open wide, rather than harsh judgment. It emphasizes that no matter our past, no matter the burden we bear, God's mercy and grace are always ready to restore our weary souls.

Listening to 'Have Mercy, O Grace' does more than just filling the air with melody. It ushers in a sense of divine comfort, an intimate dialogue between a man and his maker. The song is an invitation to all of us: allow God's grace to lead you into His arms, and cry out earnestly for His mercy. Allow this song to inspire you, bring hope to your situation, and remind you of Jesus' endless love.

'The Fall' by Josh Wright: Embracing Healing Through Pain

Josh Wright's new song, 'The Fall,' is about the dark and heavy moments that often come with loss, grief, and sin. Most of us have been there, feeling a deep sense of guilt and shame. But that is not where God wants us to linger! Yes, it's important to understand the consequences of our actions, but there is also a next chapter. God wants us to 'get up' and 'keep going.' Josh beautifully sings about this next chapter in 'The Fall.' With lyrics like, 'I didn't want the valley, I didn't want the dark,' you can feel the pain and reluctance that Josh experienced. He continues, 'Nobody wants to stumble or ever hit the ground. Nobody wants to have to hurt for healing to be found.' Josh emphasizes that although we're not looking for pain, it does play an important part in understanding God's love. If there is no contrast, e.g., no pain, then how will we be able to appreciate God's love and plan for us? This is how
