"Whom Shall I Fear (Psalm 27)" by Cindy Clark: Songs Forged in Trial


Cindy Clark's song "Whom Shall I Fear (Psalm 27)" is a warm and empowering song, with lyrics that sound both familiar and refreshing. Cindy, described by many as a psalmist, has faced quite a few challenges of her own - from depression and chronic pain to addiction and devastating personal losses. Many would have thrown in the towel, but not Cindy. Jesus drew Cindy to the piano, and that's where she found healing by singing His word. By putting His words to music, her songs not only feel comforting; she brings God's Word in a manner that helps mental, emotional, and spiritual healing. 

Cindy Clark - Whom Shall I Fear (Psalm 27)Most of the lyrics in "Whom Shall I Fear (Psalm 27)" can be led back to the first 14 verses of Psalm 27. These verses are so powerful and are a constant reminder of God's protection and guidance. Cindy's voice powerfully delivers lines like "The Lord is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear?" and "The Lord is the stronghold of my life; of whom shall I be afraid?" Golden nuggets of unshakeable faith that point us to our Lord, even in our darkest moments. 

Cindy's music is not just about making beautiful music; it's an encouragement to also experience God's loving rescue. Cindy encourages you to "Wait for the Lord, be strong and take heart," and trust that "He will hide me in his sanctuary." Precious verses that also gave Cindy strength during her own challenges, verses that will also draw you closer to the heart of the Father. 

So, if you're in need of a reminder that God is always there for you, ready to embrace you with His love and guide you on your journey, then give "Whom Shall I Fear (Psalm 27)" a listen. May you too find strength and comfort in this song.

(Related scripture: Psalm 27:1; Psalm 27:4-5; Psalm 27:13-14)

Avery Stafford's "Manna (Come on Down)": A Reminder of God's Faithfulness

Avery Stafford's "Manna (Come on Down)" is a beautiful reminder that God never forgets us. The song was inspired by Avery's own journey of faith. He remembers how excited he felt as a 7-year-old standing in front of a church in San Jose, CA, when he said "yes" to Jesus. Avery has that same fire and excitement for God's constant presence and provision today.  The song's title is a nod to a youth rally called Mannafest, emphasizing that God continues to provide for us amidst life's challenges, just as He provided manna in the wilderness. God reigns, even though hopelessness, loneliness, and disappointments constantly plague our world. The acts and consequences of people's choices can distract our focus from God. It is through lyrics like "Remind me, Lord, just why I need You living in my dreams" and "Spirit, come on down," that Avery calls us to remember God's unending faithfulness and reignite our initial love and de...
