'Close To You' by Colonial Heights Worship: A Song of Faithful Hope


Colonial Heights Worship released a song called 'Close To You,' a beautiful reminder of God's unchanging faithfulness. The idea for the song was born from the desire to remember the Lord's steadfast love for us. A love that we can never earn or deserve, but we can always count on it through all of life's highs and lows.

Colonial Heights Worship - Close To YouThe lyrics start with expressing gratitude and recalling moments when He lifted our burdens and broke our chains. The verses reflect on past challenges and triumphs, making it clear how God's presence has been (and will continue to be) our anchor through it all. The chorus celebrates our Savior as Healer and Redeemer, and the bridge of the song assures us that He will stay by our side, echoing the comfort of Psalm 23.

'Close To You' is a beautiful song and especially encouraging for anyone that is longing for peace and assurance. May this song inspire you to trust in His goodness every day and invite you to live in the warmth of His love. He is our Shepherd, guiding and caring for us through anything that life brings, ensuring us that we won't lack anything, and that we can find comfort in His eternal presence.

(Related scripture: Isaiah 43:1; Psalm 23:6; Psalm 103:2-4)

"Sunlight (Storge)" by Chelsea Chaisson: Reminisce the Simpler Times

(by Jasper Tan) Feel good, light-hearted, easy listening track. That's how I find Chelsea Chaisson's new single called "Sunlight (Storge)." I was kind of curious what the word "Storge" means, so I had to look it up. According to Wikipedia, "Storge is a Greek word that refers to natural, familial affection or love, particularly the bond between parents and children, as well as among family members and close friends. It is characterized by familiarity, dependence, and loyalty, often rooted in kinship bonds and shared experiences." Sounds very familiar? Of course, it should be, because as per the description, it actually describes what Christian love is. Or should I say how God loves us as His children? Chelsea was inspired to write this song by reminiscing about her childhood, marked by simpler times spent with her cousins and their grandma.  Countless times, we always heard the saying that we all should have faith like a child. The reason for that i...

"Stand In Awe (Live)" by Perimeter Worship: Grace Upon the Cross

(by Jasper Tan) If you are looking for a very beautiful praise and worship song this month, then look no further than listening to Perimeter Worship's song "Stand In Awe." From the get-go, you'll feel the chills and the calming presence of the Holy Spirit as the opening notes are played. And the song gets right to it when the opening lines "Christ alone be lifted high, Christ alone be glorified" immediately glorify God. As Perimeter Worship shares, "'Stand in Awe' is a declaration of worship centering our hearts on Christ, reminding us of His finished work on the cross, and thanking Him for the grace He lavishly poured out for us. We worship with both humility and confidence, ascribing all majesty, power, and authority to Christ alone (Psalm 96:7–8)." The song is a through-and-through worship song that is tailor-fit to be sung at churches. It's a call to worship with humility and confidence, ascribing all majesty, power, and authority ...

"New Jerusalem" by whispering HOPE: When Heaven Comes Down to Heal Everything

whispering HOPE's New Jerusalem follows Revelation 21 and 22. After the final judgment has cleared the stage, God unveils a new heaven and a new earth, where the New Jerusalem descends like a bride. "Behold the New Jerusalem bright, descending robed in holy light."   "Then I saw heaven and earth made new," creation is healed, the old order gone, tears wiped away, and grief finally finished. Our hope is concrete, written down, and rooted in God's faithful reign.  The second verse is about the city's strength and welcome, with gates and foundations that echo the apostles, yet no temple at all, because God and the Lamb are the center. No sun is needed, because Christ lights up every street. The gates stay open; mercy welcomes the nations.  The bridge of the song celebrates the restored Eden: a clear river, the tree of life, healing, and servants who see God's face.  Key scriptures emphasized in the lyrics of this song are:  Revelation 21:1–2: I saw a n...
