'Psalm 126' by Marcus & Jalyn McGill - Blessings following faithful endurance


Psalm 126 celebrates God's restoration of Zion, turning sorrow into joy, and gives us the promise of countless blessings that follow our faithful endurance. Marcus & Jalyn McGill have beautifully captured that essence in their song 'Psalm 126'. Just like you will find in this Psalm, this song is such a source of hope if you're going through tough times. 

Marcus & Jalyn McGill - Psalm 126'Psalm 126' is the fourth single from their upcoming album, 'Between Barren & Beautiful'. It features Chris Graham, who gives the song an extra gospel vibe that reaches deep into your heart, and makes you want to close your eyes and sway with the music.

You know how sometimes life can feel as if your all alone, wandering through a desert? Can you imagine the joy you would feel when you see the help that is rapidly coming your way? That joy of knowing that the situation is changing for the better, the tears running down your cheeks when you realize that you will soon be embraced by the One who truly loves you. It's lines like 'You have done great things for us // We've seen You restore' and 'So even in this desert land // We expect You Lord' that remind you that God is faithful through it all. The key is to hold onto hope, even when you're just sowing in tears - going against everything that your flesh wants you to do during these difficult times - because the promise of a joyful harvest is right around the corner.

Then comes the bridge of the song! 'I can see armloads of blessing // And a table of plenty' trusting in God's promise to bring life out of nothing. If you need a little (or maybe a lot of) hope, or you know someone who does, do yourself (or them) a favor and listen to 'Psalm 126.' May its truths sooth your pain and remind you that with God, a harvest of joy is always on the horizon!

(Related scripture: Psalm 126:5-6; Isaiah 43:19; 2 Corinthians 9:6)

"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....
