"He has done great things (Bethel Music Cover)" by Emmanuel Songsore: Celebrating Jesus’ Sacrifice Through Music


Emmanuel Songsore has released a new instrumental cover, and this time it is an instrumental version of the song "He Has Done Great Things" by Bethel Music. The original was released by Bethel Music on December 6th, 2024, and a live version was released on Bethel's album, "We Must Respond," on January 10th, 2025. Have you heard it yet? 

Emmanuel Songsore - He has done great things (Bethel Music Cover)This song is so new that you may not have heard the original yet. "He Has Done Great Things" is a beautiful depiction of the gospel and the sacrifice of Jesus. The lyrics are inspired by Psalm 103, passages that remind us of the gift we all may receive of God's everlasting love, mercy, and forgiveness. The lyrics in Bethel's original use imagery of the crucified Lamb and rivers of grace, reminding us of the forgiveness we receive through His blood and declaring Him worthy of all praise for removing our sin and opening the door so we may be with Him. 

The following passage in Psalm 103 came to mind as I read the original lyrics: "For as high as the heavens are above the earth, so great is his love for those who fear him; as far as the east is from the west, so far has he removed our transgressions from us." - Psalm 103:11-12

As far as we can tell, Emmanuel is the first to release an instrumental version of the song, and what a beautiful job he has done! The piano in Emmanuel's rendition has a much richer sound than the original, and his attention to detail and emotion makes this a great track to play during your quiet time and other moments/occassions where no words are needed. Enjoy!

(Related scripture: Psalm 103:11-12; Ephesians 1:7; John 3:16)

"I Will Rejoice" by Maria Segerholm: Thankful for the Sunshine and the Rain

Joy is a choice you can make today. “I Will Rejoice” by Maria Segerholm is a song of joy and praise, and her message is that joy is a choice despite the challenges we face. Maria has been called a happy person since she was a little girl. The unexpected happened, the trials came. Seasons arrived when her joy faded, and she says the enemy worked hard to steal her joy. Does that sound familiar? Those seasons didn’t last. Over the past few years, God has taught Maria what it means to rejoice in Him at all times, and this song, “I Will Rejoice”, grew from that lesson. Listen to how she sings it. Clouds try to block her light, yet she won’t stay down. Pain tries to break her praise, so she sings His Name. Fear shakes her soul, and she gives thanks “cause I know You’re good.” Notice the words that Maria uses: Clouds, pain, fear, and noise… They all “try,” but none of them win. Joy here is a choice that she makes again and again, long before her feelings catch up. The bridge pushes further....

"A Mighty Fortress Is Our God" by Robby Robinson & Andrea Hammond: Stand Firm in His Victory

What fortress stands when everything else shakes? Martin Luther wrote “A Mighty Fortress Is Our God” in a time of upheaval. Now Robby Robinson and Andrea Hammond have given this hymn a fresh voice, released just in time for Reformation Week. The arrangement begins softly with piano and a single violin. Then Andrea sings, and it builds into a joyful, uplifting orchestral arrangement with layered strings, piano, and Andrea’s soaring violin. That journey mirrors the faith that we all may find in the lyrics. “A mighty fortress is our God, a sword and shield victorious.” The song doesn’t start loud. It starts with trust, and trust in God is where strength begins. Where do you run when the pressure rises? Many of us reach for busyness, control, or even worry. They crumble. The hymn points to something much more sturdy: “He breaks the cruel oppressor’s rod and wins salvation glorious.” Whatever is binding you has already met its match… in God. Psalm 46:1 says it plainly: “God is our refuge ...

"Thank God I’m Saved" by Chad Chaney: A Joyful Anthem for Life’s Valleys

Is the valley you’re in really permanent? Chad Chaney spent years as an actor in Hollywood, building his own kingdom. Then God called him to build a different one. In a quiet moment, one line landed: “Even when I’m in the valley, I won’t stay for long.” He wrote an entire song around it, “Thank God I’m Saved”. You may know that valley. Loneliness. Worry about next year. A voice that whispers that you’re worthless. Chad names those feelings in his lyrics: “Even when I’m feeling broken, You will make me whole.” He never pretends the valley isn’t real. He just refuses to unpack his bags there. Scripture sounds the same note. “Weeping may tarry for the night, but joy comes with the morning” (Psalm 30:5). David wrote those words after God lifted him out of a dark season. The night was real. So was the morning, and David turned that into a song. What are you carrying around today that is blocking your joy? Hand it over to God. Chad says that God has brought him and his family out of seemi...
