Cindy Clark's 'A Future Song': A Song of Praise


Cindy Clark's 'A Future Song' is a special song inspired by the book of Revelation. The lyrics for this song are the versus that will be sung in the future by different people, saints, and the elders in heaven, and these songs will be sung at the end of this age. She wrote it while preparing for her 2023 album. One summer morning, Cindy was on her porch reading the last chapter of the Bible. As she read, she began to hear a melody form in her mind. She went to her piano and began to play, creating a few sections from Revelation 4 and 5. But she was still missing the first verse. She prayed, and God led her to Revelation 15, revealing the "Song of Moses," where it said, "They held harps given them by God and sang the song of God's servant Moses and of the Lamb." 

Cindy Clark - A Future Song'A Future Song' is a song of praise, singing praises in awe of God's deeds and the justice of His ways. The pre-chorus emphasizes God's holiness and that the nations will worship Him (… what a contrast it will be to what the world is going through today!!). The chorus exalts our God, who sits on the throne, and the Lamb with praise, honor, wisdom, and strength. 

The song continues and echoes the holiness and worthiness of God, celebrating His eternal reign. 

The book of Revelation is not the easiest of the Bible books to read and grasp, and Cindy has done a great job to make this part of Revelation more accessible. May this song stir your heart and remind you of the eternal praises that we may join in heaven.

(Related scripture: Revelation ch. 4, 5, and 15)

"Paper Lantern Heart" by MK Green: When God Lights a Fire You Can't Contain

What happens when God lights a fire in you?  Some fires refuse to stay hidden. MK Green wrote “Paper Lantern Heart” around that exact truth, inspired by Jeremiah 20:9, where the prophet admits that he tried to stop preaching but simply couldn’t. The Word burned inside him “like a fire shut up in my bones.” Green’s lyrics echo that same struggle: “Behind the bones inside my chest there burns a paper heart.” Cold turns to burning. Silence turns to song. “I was cold as stone until You lit a spark,” the chorus declares, and something about that image sticks with you long after the music fades.  Here’s the question worth pondering: What do you do when God ignites something in you that won’t stay quiet?  Jeremiah tried holding it in, and that exhausted him. “There is in my heart as it were a burning fire shut up in my bones, and I am weary with holding it in, and I cannot” (Jeremiah 20:9). That weariness sounds familiar, doesn’t it? Maybe you’ve felt the nudge to speak up, ...

"Set Free" by Kristin Ambuhl: Naming Your Real Enemy

What battle are you really fighting today?   Some enemies wear a smile. Kristin Ambuhl calls this out in her song “Set Free”. The song calls these enemies a “favorite shadow” who’s “throwin’ words like daggers” while “hiding behind your laughter.” This is much more than a person who is being difficult. Kristin wrote this song about the daily spiritual battles we face as believers — battles found in arrogant people, dark influences, and forces that work to pull us away from who God made us to be. Whether it’s small fights or big ones, she’s naming them all.  The song doesn’t stay stuck in the shadows. Kristin declares, “I’ve been set apart, I’ve been set free, from my enemies, against dark powers, rulers, and authorities.” Part of that line echoes Ephesians 6:12: “For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the cosmic powers over this present darkness, against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly places.” W...

"Come Alive" by Joel Lane: Finding Life Where Emptiness Used to Live

What if nothing you chase can truly fill the emptiness?  Emptiness has a way of following you around, no matter how fast you run. You chase a feeling (or things you believe will get you higher up “the ladder”), land on it for a moment, and then watch it slip through your fingers again. Joel Lane captures that feeling of restlessness in the opening lines of his song “Come Alive”: “Emptiness, chasing a feeling, trying to fill the void inside.” Sound familiar? Most of us have spent years searching for a purpose that felt just out of our reach.  Joel sings about how something happened that put everything in a different perspective. “You opened my eyes, now I see the light, I’m never going back.” That’s not a small statement. That’s a complete change of direction, a different way of living, a change the kind that can only happen when God steps into the picture.  The apostle Paul writes about this change of direction in Ephesians: “But God, being rich in mercy, because of the...
