Go Deeper by Belinda Adu: The Prayer of a Thirsty Soul


Belinda Adu's song 'Go Deeper' is a prayer set to an upbeat melody. It's a plea for a deeper relationship with God, and asks the Holy Spirit to fill us and rekindle a fire within. As I listen, I am reminded of Psalm 42:1–2: '… My soul thirsts for God, for the living God. When can I go and meet with God?'

Belinda Adu - Go DeeperBelinda beautifully captures our desire to feel God's love and guidance, 'I want you to fill me up // 'Cause I feel empty // Come on and pour your // Spirit out once again.' Lyrics that are so relevant when you're feeling spiritually exhausted and crave to feel God's refreshing touch in your life. 

The chorus emphasizes that God is all we need: 'You are enough // You are all that I need // All I want // Is for you to go deep // Start a fire from within.' What is the sense of resisting, when all we need to do is accept the invitation to let God lead and quench our spiritual thirst with His living water? Belinda's sincerity makes this song very relatable, leading you from hearing the lyrics to feeling it in your heart and dropping to your knees to make this your own prayer. 

It shouldn't come as a surprise that listening to 'Go Deeper' is a spiritual experience. Belinda's song leads the way to opening your heart to God so that He can refresh you with His Spirit no matter how thirsty you are. 

Need spiritual refreshment? Listen to 'Go Deeper' today to strengthen your relationship with God.

"Thankful" by Lowen: The Practice of Being Thankful

Lowen's "Thankful" isn't one of those typical feel-good gratitude songs. Life is good most of the time… and even when it hurts, there's often something quietly waiting inside the pain, like a lesson, a softening, or a deeper understanding. Lowen found inspiration for this song in what Stephen Colbert once said, "… he learned to love the thing he most wished had never happened, and that simply being here is a gift. Gratitude means holding all of it, not just the easy parts."   The lyrics open with a warm anchor: "Every day that I wake, I just feel so thankful." We're encouraged not to flinch from the messy middle. This is not about ignoring life's quakes! Lowen admits, "honesty is telling me I need space" when the world feels unsteady. In other words, the gratitude that Lowen sings about isn't about forcing a smile through pain — it's about meeting every moment (including the hard moments) with presence, care, and res...

"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....

"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 ...
