'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.

Citipointe Worship - Giants / How Good The Lord Is - Live (CCM)

Do the giants in your life have you feeling overwhelmed? Do you suffer from fear, confusion, or affliction? If this is the case, this song may bring you comfort and encouragement. Citipointe Worship's 'Giants / How Good The Lord Is - Live' is a powerful worship song that celebrates the victories that God has won on our behalf and serves as a reminder of His presence in our lives. The lyrics encourage you to be strong in the face of adversity, knowing that the Lord is already there by your side. The song praises God for shutting the lion's mouth and leading the captives out. It is the same God who is with us now, and with Him by our side, we need not fear evil... we need not fear those giants. The chorus emphasizes that victory was won when Jesus died and rose again, and that we can be strong and persevere because He has gone before us.

Lédylce - Tu es tout pour moi (CCM) - translated: "You are everything to me"

Lédylce has released a Christian Contemporary Music (CCM) track called 'Tu es tout pour moi' ("You are everything to me"). It is such an honor that Lédylce contacted us with this song. A song about the relationship between a child and their (heavenly) Father. The message of this song is subtle, but it is a message we can fully grasp once we realize who our loving Father is and what His grace entails for us.   Lédylce hopes to reach as many people as possible with her first project as an independent artist. The next songs she plans to record will have a distinctly Christian flavor, says Lédylce...   We're happy to offer you the original lyrics in French, as well as a translation into English of a song that reaches out beyond the barriers of language to His children. Paroles: Une pluie divine d’amour et de tendresse Et lorsque j’ai soif un fleuve d’eau fraîche Tu m’entoures par devant et par derrière Tu me protèges et me consoles de mes misères   Tu es tout, Tu es t...
