'At a Gravestone' by Hannah B. Johnson: A Compassionate Musical Meditation on Life's Brevity


Within the tender silences that inhabit our contemplations on life and mortality, our hearts occasionally send forth a question that echoes the wonder and mystery of existence. 'Where does that grave go?' This is the profound question posed in Hannah B Johnson's touching contemporary Christian song 'At a Gravestone.'

Hannah B Johnson - At a GravestoneThis lyrical journey invites us to embrace the brevity of our lives, inspired by a poignant moment at a family funeral when a child's innocent question stirred unraveled layers of thought and emotion. To cherish the people we care about, to treasure our circumstances, and to look at ourselves with kindness and wisdom.

Hannah's elegantly crafted words urge us to embrace the essence of our fleeting earthly journey, to find comfort in the divine presence that envelops us even in our deepest challenges. She tenderly reminds us, through her soothing acoustic melodies, that our lives are but a breath, a divine whisper in the grand symphony of existence.

Allow 'At a Gravestone' to take you on a journey deep within, beyond the veneers of daily existence, drawing you closer to the divine dance of birth, life, and what lies beyond as you listen. Allow Hannah's soul-stirring song to reassure, uplift, and inspire you, encouraging you to reflect on the deeper reality of our human experience.

"Holy (In The Valley)" by Caleb Andrew: Finding His Greatness in the Valley

What if worship wasn't just for mountaintop moments? Caleb Andrew's debut single, "Holy (In The Valley)," addresses this very question. Caleb shared that this song has been in the making for 10 years. What started as a chorus and bridge written during an intense encounter with God's presence has since grown into an anthem for his life.  God's holiness doesn't fade when our life grows heavy! In other words, our God not only meets us in triumph, He also walks with us through uncertainty. The lyrics declare, "You are holy // In the valley // You are holy," turning our gaze from circumstance to Him, our Lord. When Caleb sings, "There in my weakness // You see greatness," he captures the heart of persevering faith. This song empowers you to choose to worship Him, even before a breakthrough. The lyrics have become Caleb's daily reminder: "will you let trials silence your song, or will you sing anyway?" The bridge commands cour...

"Dancing On Water" by Mary Oz: When grief has no power over Hope

(by Jasper Tan) I have always been a huge admirer of Mary Oz's music. Since the moment I discovered her songs, without fail, I've always made it a point to add them to my playlists. If there was one CCM artist from the Philippines who deserves to be heard on a global scale, then my vote belongs to Mary.  Her latest single, "Dancing On Water" (which is a part of her forthcoming album), is a pure acoustic folk/rock song that talks about breakthroughs from grief. As Mary shares, "Grief can swallow you whole, but it's not a life sentence. The morning will come, and with it, Joy." This is a very empowering statement that seeks to inspire her listeners to take courage, rejoice, leave the sadness behind, and just conquer their fears.  What I love about Mary's songwriting is her deep metaphorical lyricism that makes her songs stand out among the clutter of songs in this age of digital music. You'll definitely know that her songs are very well thought of...

“We Worship You I AM”, Doyin Teru – Worship in Spirit and Truth

"We Worship You I AM" by Doyin Teru is a relatively simple song with a massive vision and message behind it. The song was born in a moment of prayer. In Bolaji Teru's own words: "Few minutes into the prayers, I knelt down on my knees with the consciousness that God is present and must be revered. In a moment, tears began to flow from my eyes as I heard the song in my spirit as if it's being sung by thousands of others. So I joined them to sing the song and right after, took my phone, recorded the song and gradually began to develop and produced it." In other words, this isn't just another worship track; it's an invitation to join in with a heavenly chorus.  The song repeats a few core phrases: "We worship Your Majesty," "We worship Your Royalty," and the declaration, "We worship You, I AM." Instead of crowding the song with many words, it leans on the weight of God's revealed name  —  "I AM," the Etern...
