'Doxology' by Life In Groveland: A Classic With a New Vibe


Doxology is an instumental track found on the album 'The Hymnal' by Life In Grooveland. 

Life In Grooveland - DoxologyThis is a modern rendition using various instruments, including an electric guitar, of the well known hymn Doxolgy. Listening to this track actually gave me a bit of a chuckle as I was trying to picture the congregation of our church singing the traditional lyrics along with this track… as in the lyrics from 1674, together with this instrumental track. There is one church community that we occasionally visit that would have fun with such a challenge! 😂

You can try these lyrics as you listen…

Praise God, from whom all blessings flow;
Praise Him, all creatures here below;
Praise Him above, ye heav'nly host;
Praise Father, Son, and Holy Ghost.

We asked the artist behind this rendition of the song to share what triggered him to release this. Here is the reply we received: 

'It was my desire to take my love of classic hymns and reimagine them as exciting new musical works driven by drums and percussion. Each track on the album features a different instrumentalist with Doxology featuring electric guitar played by Dave Coleman. My goal was to show the listener how a melody which has been around for centuries can be reborn and capture our imagination.'

We trust that you will also enjoy the listen.

'Lonely Dirt Road' by Dax: A Journey to Solitude and God

Dax's 'Lonely Dirt Road' is a conversation that Dax has with himself and God. Dax shares his journey of turning mental health walks into healing solitary drives. As you listen, you can almost feel the cruise, where it's just you, your thoughts, and God.  The chorus is so relatable: 'When I need space, that's where I go, a place to escape that nobody knows.' What do you do when life's pressures stack high? Do you also have a space where you can let go? That lonely dirt road that Dax sings about symbolizes solitude, but it is also an incredible opportunity for connecting with God.  Dax's honesty is raw and relatable. 'I didn't want my family to see me cry… dealing with the pressure of trying to provide.' There are times when we all put on a smile to hide how challenging situations may be. Like his father, Dax says that he finds peace on this lonely road, where challenges become opportunities to grow. This shows the core of our faith: that...

'Jeremiah 29:11' by Sow In Peace: Connecting to God’s Plan

Mike, the artist behind Sow In Peace, brings us a powerful reminder with his latest track, 'Jeremiah 29:11.' This track has a modern CEDM vibe, blending soothing electronic beats with the timeless promise from God that we can read in Jeremiah 29:11. 'For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.' It’s an energetic melody that doesn't distract from the core message, a song that invites you to reflect on God's promise in your life, reminding you that His plans are driven by love and purpose. Mike grew up in a family of musicians, and it shouldn't come as a surprize that music has always been an important part of his life. He went on to have a successful career writing music for TV shows and movies after finishing his formal education in music. While living the fast-paced Los Angeles lifestyle, he gave his life to Christ and found a new calling—a calling to slow down and re...
