Freedom in Christ: OCILIO's "Free So Free"


OCILIO's "Free So Free" is a beautiful deep house tribute to the freedom that we all may find in Christ. The track was inspired by feelings of gratitude, as OCILIO recalls how Jesus had saved him and how this felt. He describes it as feeling "free" after God removed his burdens. OCILIO initially produced the track with a slower chill house vibe, but the vibe didn't really capture that feeling of freedom and how his spirit soared. 12 months and a few versions later, he is pleased to share an upbeat deep house track that communicates both the spiritual freedom and the exhilarating feeling this gives him. 

OCILIO - Free So FreeOCILIO uses his lyrics en melody to paint this image of how our burdens are lifted, chains broken, enabling us to breathe fresh air again. He uses imagery of soaring in clear skies and over water to illustrate the joy and freedom we all may find when we embrace a new life in Christ. The message in "Free So Free" is very relatable for anyone who has experienced the life-changing power of God's love and an encouragement for those who haven't to take that leap of faith. 

May this deep house production remind you of the endless freedom and joy that comes from accepting and living in Christ's grace. Enjoy!

"Come Alive" by JONATHYN: Grace Restoring the Broken

(by Jasper Tan) "Come Alive" by JONATHYN is an uplifting CCM-Pop track that talks about spiritual renewal, grace, and finding purpose through our Christian faith. The song dwells on the classic darkness-to-light narrative, which is a common theme for those who are struggling with their Faith. The song begins by describing our state of being in a spiritual exhaustion, mirroring that feeling like we are breathing lead. It also speaks about our life that at times feels like it is dead, despite being alive in this world. This happens when we keep on making the wrong turn, and these frequent mistakes become our frustration. And in a twist of irony, sometimes we are being led to deeper depression, especially if we are clutching for hope, yet this is devoid of a firm foundation. And the chorus is where we are reminded that it is only through God and his gift of hope, which gives us new life and makes us feel much more alive. This is the emotional peak of the song, where the song tra...

"Paradise" by New Life Worship: One Moment, One Cry, One Promise of Paradise

Have you ever felt too far gone for grace? Like all of the wrongs in your life are just too many to be forgiven? If that is the case, then "Paradise" by New Life Worship has an important message for you. The song takes us back to one of the most powerful scenes in the Bible, the thief on the cross.  The song puts you right there. The thief, hanging right next to Christ on the cross. Guilty, undeserving, and despite that brave enough to be "Crying [to Christ] for mercy // Remember me." What this scene/song tells us is that it isn't about earning His mercy… It's about receiving it. The thief didn't have time to make things right again; he had no religious track record and no credentials. But he saw and accepted Jesus for who He was… and that was enough.  "You could've counted all my wrongs // Instead you counted me your own." These two lines alone are so precious. Just think about it! Instead of condemnation, Jesus offered paradise, extravag...
