Charity Abbott's 'Turn My Faith': A Heartfelt Call Back to God


Turn My Faith' was written by Charity Abbott, Matt Moss, and Joy Dame. Matt Moss did the instrumentals and harmonies as a collaboration on the song with Charity. This song is such a powerful anchor of hope in the chaos of everyday life. Beautiful lyrics that redirect our focus to the One who will never fail us. The One who guides His followers through their darkest nights with a promise that He's always there, always ready to hold us up. 

Charity Abbott - Turn My FaithWe all know that life can throw some nasty curveballs. We've all had moments where we're caught in the rush of doubts, fears, and the many 'what-if's' that cloud our days. Charity has faced these distractions as well and shares how she manages to refocus during her own battles with depression and anxiety. 'Turn My Faith' isn't just Charity's journey; it's a journey that may sound familiar to quite a few listeners. All through the lyric, there is a gentle yet powerful reminder to shift our focus from our own struggles and refocus on the strength and love of God. He's the constant factor in our lives. It's His love and promises that form the firm foundation we need to stand strong in a world that's constantly shifting. 

The heart of the song is in its raw honesty and search for peace in life's chaos. We've all had moments, like Matt Moss, where misunderstanding God's intent resulted in decisions that didn't work out (and in Matt's case, also caused sorrow), but by keeping our focus on God's unfailing love and peace, inner peace is restored. 

So, give it a listen. Let its words remind you of where your faith should be focused. In a world eager to pull us away from our anchor, 'Turn My Faith' calls us back home, back to the heart of God, where we will find true peace, joy, and the strength to face another day.

"King, Lamb, Lion" by Ben Jero & Graham Guy: When the World Runs Dry

What happens when the world just isn’t enough?  In early 2025, Graham Guy was reading Revelation chapter 4. The picture of heaven gathered around the throne — declaring God holy and worthy of praise — planted the seed for this song. Three words surfaced from that moment: “King, Lamb, Lion.” Graham sent them to Ben Jero, and across a string of FaceTime calls between South Carolina and California, the song “King, Lamb, Lion” took shape.  The opening verse doesn’t pretend. “I’ve tried this world, but it won’t fill me,” the lyric admits, before landing at surrender: “My life laid down, at your feet.” That’s honest territory. Most of us have chased something we thought would satisfy, only to find ourselves empty-handed. The song changes our focus to lasting results. “The old is gone, the new has come,” it declares, repeating a promise found in 2 Corinthians 5:17: “If anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old has passed away; behold, the new has come.” Notice what that ...

"Paper Lantern Heart" by MK Green: When God Lights a Fire You Can't Contain

What happens when God lights a fire in you?  Some fires refuse to stay hidden. MK Green wrote “Paper Lantern Heart” around that exact truth, inspired by Jeremiah 20:9, where the prophet admits that he tried to stop preaching but simply couldn’t. The Word burned inside him “like a fire shut up in my bones.” Green’s lyrics echo that same struggle: “Behind the bones inside my chest there burns a paper heart.” Cold turns to burning. Silence turns to song. “I was cold as stone until You lit a spark,” the chorus declares, and something about that image sticks with you long after the music fades.  Here’s the question worth pondering: What do you do when God ignites something in you that won’t stay quiet?  Jeremiah tried holding it in, and that exhausted him. “There is in my heart as it were a burning fire shut up in my bones, and I am weary with holding it in, and I cannot” (Jeremiah 20:9). That weariness sounds familiar, doesn’t it? Maybe you’ve felt the nudge to speak up, ...

"Stand By Me" by Daniel Aranda: Finding Steadiness in Life's Storms

Who’s standing with you in the storm? “Stand By Me” by Daniel Aranda is an amazing rendition of a hymn written by Charles Albert Tindley in 1905. Tindley was the son of a former slave, a man who knew what it meant to need help that wasn’t guaranteed. He didn’t write from comfort. He wrote from the middle of a fight, and that’s exactly why the song is still so relevant and cherished by many today. Daniel Aranda’s recording brings gospel legends Terry Blackwood and Charlie McCoy into that same lineage, carrying Tindley’s plea forward into a new generation.  The lyrics move through life’s troubles, one verse at a time. “When the storms of life are raging, stand by me”  — that’s not poetic exaggeration. Tindley’s first verse is about a ship tossed on open water, powerless against the waves. Then verses about failing strength, friends who misunderstand your best efforts, persecution, and the song ends with a verse about old age creeping toward “chilly Jordan.” Each of the verses names ...
