'The Unknown' by Kosj Yamoah: Finding Light In The Midst Of Loss


Kosj Yamoah's contemporary Christian song 'The Unknown' illustrates how a parent's grief can change over time through God's love. The song a personal journey from devastating loss to divine hope. The lyrics were inspired by their painful loss of their son Zion. It tells a moving story of faith that speaks to everyone who find themselves walking the uncertain paths of life.

Kosj Yamoah - The Unknown'The Unknown' a heartfelt reminder that God is with us always, even when things are bad. Even though the challenges that we're going through may seem impossible to overcome, Kosj's lyrics remind us even a world turned upside down is not beyond God's redemptive reach. 'I am glad I'm alive in You,' he sings, voicing the immense strength that can be found when we realize how small we really are within God's grand scheme of divine love.

God's light can change our lives, as the bridge of 'The Unknown' says, 'You spoke to life all of my dreams and my vision... You gave me beauty for all the ashes.' Faith is such a beautiful grace-filled mystery—that new sense of hope and purpose can emerge out of pain and uncertainty—a faith that has been refined by fire and is rooted in God's unwavering love.

This beautiful song, 'The Unknown,' has a message of trusting God even when things in life are uncertain. I invite you to listen and let it echo during your own journey. What you experience today will become your testimony tomorrow!

"How Glorious" by Red Letter Society: Why This Song Unites the Church

"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 ...

"Your Love" by Kevin Winebarger - When Mercy Becomes Your Identity

Kevin Winebarger teamed up with Joshua Frerichs and Benji Cowart to create this beautiful song. "Your Love" tackles that discouraging voice we all hear from time to time, the one that whispers that we're not enough and that we are defined by our past. "Once a liar, always a liar," and all kinds of variations along this same line of thought. This song isn't about wallowing in shame. "Your Love" is a celebration of the grace that changes everything.  The opening lines hit hard: "I could believe that I'm not enough // It's clear to see I don't measure up." Yep, we've all been there! But this isn't how God want us to be defined… He loved us first! "It's just what You've done // Because of Your love." That's the heart of everything.  Kevin places the change the God brings into perspective, "I could believe that my mistakes // Will follow me down into the grave // But I'm not who I was....

"Be Thou My Vision" by Son Francisco: Updating a Traditional Christian Hymn for the Modern Times.

Originally, "Be Thou My Vision" is a Christian Hymn that traces its roots to Ireland and Scotland. It is one of the most popular Christian Hymns in the United Kingdom. It has been interpreted multiple times by contemporary artists, mostly retrieving the Slane tune. I've heard the different versions of the song, most notably the one interpreted by contemporary artist Audrey Assad. But Son Francisco's version is a breath of fresh air. Composed and arranged as a ballad/lullaby, it evokes a Leonard Cohen-type song (though on the softer side of rock). I mean, there are really no replacements for the solemnity and the purity of the original hymnal version. But this is the type of arrangement that you can bring out to the secular world and transform the song into a more modern version. I love the subtlety of how Francisco attacks the opening lines of the song "Be Thou my vision, O Lord of my hear Naught be all else to me, save that Thou art…." It flows beautifully...
