'I Need You' by Olly Kiff - Echoing Our Heart’s True Cry


Have you ever felt so down and out that the only words you could muster in prayer were a simple, 'God, I need You'? That is the key message behind Olly Kiff's song, 'I Need You.' Coming from deep desperation, a cry for God to be with you in your darkest of times. Possibly the lyrics are echoing your own need for the God who holds everything in His mighty hands. 

Olly Kiff - I Need YouThis song is more like the words of a prayer that Olly is sharing with us. It's a reminder that it's perfectly fine if we don't know what to do next, because we have a Heavenly Father who's got us. He has been holding us in the past, present, and will continue to hold us in future, caring for us in ways we can't even begin to understand. I believe 'I Need You' isn't just Olly's heart that is being laid bare; it's the echo of many souls (maybe even yours), a song that lovingly wraps around our struggles and whispers, 'You're not alone.' 

So, take a moment, sit down, and hit play. Allow Olly's honest plea to draw you closer to the One who can fill you when you're feeling empty, hold you close when you're feeling lost, and carry you when you're too tired to stand on your own. Your greatest strength starts by admitting that you need God. Let 'I Need You' by Olly Kiff touch your heart and help you to open your heart and let God's love and strength come into your life.

(Related scripture: Psalm 73:26; Jeremiah 29:13; 2 Corinthians 12:9)

"Jesus Christ" by Robin Vane: From Shame to Mercy, One Surrender at a Time

Robin Vane's "Jesus Christ" is a beautiful EDM track with a powerful message. A message, or better said, a testimony, that you'd expect to hear across a coffee table, or during an informal church gathering. It's raw, honest, and quietly brave. The song starts by looking back to a younger self, when he "had no hope" and "stopped believing," stuck in a season where it was "dark," lonely, and defeating. In other words, it names the kind of despair many people hide, even today, including our younger generations.  Robin continues to sing about when the turning point hit: Jesus "knocked on the door," and how he opened up to "love in the flesh." He also sings about what happened when Grace found him before he was able to clean himself up… Robin shares, "I surrendered and fell to my knees," and "I was weeping for the first time." That moment became a line in the sand for Robin: "I will never...

"Hallelujah" by Kensie Breen: Finding Grace in Every Broken Hallelujah

Kensie Breen's "Hallelujah" takes Leonard Cohen's timeless song and gives it a warm, country-Christmas vibe. Kensie, just 14 years old, beautifully emphasizes the reality of faith, the never-ending clash between biblical beauty and human brokenness.  Staying true to Cohen's original lyrics, Kensie traces David and Samson's stories. Stories that remind us that even when we've "done our best, it wasn't much," and still we can stand before the "Lord of Song" with our praises. The song gives us the hope that every hallelujah on our lips, holy or broken, can still rise to God.  So what does that mean for us? It means our imperfect worship still matters. Our mixed-up, mid-December heart still counts. It invites us to stop looking for excuses and just praise, because He is listening. He hears our praises, and He knows our hearts. May Kensie's beautiful rendition of Cohen's "Hallelujah" remind you that true worship isn...

"Saved" by Cody & Brody: Faith Beyond Four Walls

Growing up in a small town where faith is measured by church attendance can feel very restrictive. Cody & Brody's "Saved" challenges that narrow perspective with refreshing authenticity. It challenges us to reflect on how relationships with God (or in fact with anyone) can be defined by four walls. There must be more to a relationship than that! The idea for the song came from a conversation with a small-town preacher about the fact that loyalty to God doesn't require loyalty to a single church building. Instead of judgment, it's all about grace, His grace. Sadly, so many people feel caught between their faith and institutional expectations… especially the human expectations that are not grounded in His teachings. The song opens with "I don't wear my Sunday best, or sit in a pew like all the rest." Yet the Cody & Brody connect with God through nature's own cathedral - on dirt roads, beneath the open skies, in the thunder, and the songs t...
