Zac Adams' "Joy In The Morning" - A Song of Hope and Resilience


Zac Adams released a beautiful cover of "Joy In The Morning". A song that has been incredibly meaningful to Zac and his team. In case you're not so familiar with the song, it's a reminder that even in life's darkest moments of our lives, keep your faith and trust that God will bring joy in the morning. It's a call to keep faith and trust that He is working for our good, even when we don't see it or understand how things will eventually work out for us. 

Zac Adams - Joy In The MorningOne of the reasons why Zac and the team connected with the song is the timing, it "popped-up" right when some of the team were facing personal and spiritual challenges. By performing "Joy in the Morning", the song also helped them get through their challenges, brought healing and a renewed sense of purpose and peace. They hope that this song will bring you that same sense of purpose and draw you closer to God. 

It's lyrics like "If it doesn't make sense right now, it will when it's over," that make the song so relatable. And still, we have a choice… hold onto your faith, accept that God's grace is always present, and that it will bring joy and restoration each morning. 

Zac shared that while they were recording the song, they noticed how singing it together brought such a lightness and energy to the team. It felt as if they were experiencing the joy that this song talks about in real-time! 

That is also what the team wishes for you: that this song will encourage you to hold on and grow your faith, know that God is truly with you, offering His guidance together with His promise that it will bring you joy and restoration in the morning. He's already standing at your door, ready to embrace and bless you… Will you let Him in?

"Boxes" by John Long: Breaking Free from Religious Boxes

(by Jasper Tan) John Long’s “Boxes,” written with Dustin Smith, is both a reflection and criticism of how we oftentimes allow ourselves to be limited (“boxed”) with our faith. Using the “box” as the core metaphor of the song, it represents our self-imposed (or community-imposed) limitations with religious traditions that prevents genuine a genuine relationship with God. John emphasizes that these limitations often run into conflict with the original intentions of God, to have a free flowing holy communion with God. The song is characterized by our sense of longing and our desire to re-approach our Faith with clean hands and a pure heart. From the opening lines itself, we are challenged to evaluate the current status of our faith and come to realize that it may never really what we intend it to be. Our intention from the start was born from a desire to start a deep and Holy Communion with God, and as the bridge and chorus approaches, the song has a more personal and prayerful tone. We a...

"He's My Rock" by Jamar Esaw & Triad 4 Christ: Finding Shelter in the Storm

(by Jasper Tan) “He’s My Rock” by Jamar Esaw & Triad4Christ featuring Koriann Lewis-Freeman is a powerful contemporary Gospel track that delivers a blend of traditional worship and modern soul. It reminds me of some of the songs by the band DC Talk, which was the definitive sound of modern Christian Contemporary Music when it exploded in the music scene back in the 90’s. This contemporary Gospel track brings forth an energetic sound that updates the way we sing our praise and worship sessions in our Churches. The song brings in a raw modern energy that breaks tradition while also encouraging worship sessions to be more in tune with the times, which brings a lot of youthful energy. The song is powered by Jamar Esaw’s smooth, commanding vocals and Koriann Lewis-Freeman’s additional vocal range. Bringing in an electric chemistry rooted in the authenticity of emotions as they sang the lyrics of the song. This is clearly felt during the song’s build-up to its climactic moments. With a r...

"GREATER THAN THE GRAVE 2026 - Remaster" by Josh Clay: Overcoming Walls and Giants

Have you ever felt like your heart’s gone cold, walls built high like Jericho’s? That’s where Josh Clay’s journey began with his song “Greater Than The Grave”, a song first released in 2022. It was the first song he ever released as an artist, and it’s also the first song that made him say … “yeah, this is my sound!” Years have passed since this song was born, and Josh Clay still sings it with conviction, giving him a good reason to release a remastered version.  Josh shares that this song came after watching a Beatles documentary, where they were explaining that they had 14 days to write 14 songs. He decided right there and then to adopt the same challenge. On the second day of this challenge, while practicing for church, Josh just started singing: “no mountain that may come my way,” and then mumbled something about a grave. In the next 30 minutes, he had the basis for “Greater than the grave”. Josh recalls that this is the song that gave him wings to fly, and without it, t...
