Darrell Vaughn's 'Heaven My Home': Looking Forward to Our Real Home


Darrell Vaughn's new single, "Heaven My Home," is a heartfelt song that was inspired by health battles and the loss of loved ones. Darrell shares how these experiences made heaven more real to him and changed his look on life and eternity. 

Darrell Vaughn - Heaven My HomeThe lyrics look at the beauty and peace that is waiting for us in our eternal home. Darrell describes what could be in paradise, such as rolling meadows, clear rivers, and endless blue skies. Imagery that may even come very close to reflecting the peace and safety we will experience on that day when we may return home. The chorus powerfully declares: "Heaven my home, it's where I belong // I'm pure and whole by the savior's grace // His glory shines, it lights me up inside // Praise the Lord, On my knees, on my face". Yes, we may belong and be purified through His grace, and His promise of light and glory that fills us with joy and praise. 

"Heaven My Home" is an uplifting song about facing life's challenges with the hope of heavenly joy. May this song encourage you to focus on the incredible future God has prepared for you, a future where we all will worship together in perfect unity and fulfillment.

(Related scripture: Revelation 21:4; 1 Corinthians 2:9; John 14:2-3)

"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....

"He Must Increase" by Rorie: Humbling ourselves in God’s presence

Inspired by the verses John 3:30, Philippians 3:7–8, and John 10:27, Rorie releases "He Must Increase", a beautiful song that reminds us of the sound of CCM from the 2000s, easily the era when the rise of CCM was at its peak. Rorie sings the song with earnestness as she opens the lines "The seasons change and we are aging, But You alone are God of the ages." You'll immediately know that this song is putting God front and center. There's a certain aspect of the song that clearly wants to remind us that God will always be bigger than us. That his glory and mercy will always shine through, and we are mere travelers in the world that he built. Everything emanates from him, and we cannot claim to be bigger than God.  It's a humbling reminder that what we have, what we attained, it all comes as a blessing that He has gifted to us. We cannot claim that it is our works that brought us the joys and triumphs. These gifts and accomplishments are nothing without Hi...
