"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)

"Holy (In The Valley)" by Caleb Andrew: Finding His Greatness in the Valley

What if worship wasn't just for mountaintop moments? Caleb Andrew's debut single, "Holy (In The Valley)," addresses this very question. Caleb shared that this song has been in the making for 10 years. What started as a chorus and bridge written during an intense encounter with God's presence has since grown into an anthem for his life.  God's holiness doesn't fade when our life grows heavy! In other words, our God not only meets us in triumph, He also walks with us through uncertainty. The lyrics declare, "You are holy // In the valley // You are holy," turning our gaze from circumstance to Him, our Lord. When Caleb sings, "There in my weakness // You see greatness," he captures the heart of persevering faith. This song empowers you to choose to worship Him, even before a breakthrough. The lyrics have become Caleb's daily reminder: "will you let trials silence your song, or will you sing anyway?" The bridge commands cour...

"Dancing On Water" by Mary Oz: When grief has no power over Hope

(by Jasper Tan) I have always been a huge admirer of Mary Oz's music. Since the moment I discovered her songs, without fail, I've always made it a point to add them to my playlists. If there was one CCM artist from the Philippines who deserves to be heard on a global scale, then my vote belongs to Mary.  Her latest single, "Dancing On Water" (which is a part of her forthcoming album), is a pure acoustic folk/rock song that talks about breakthroughs from grief. As Mary shares, "Grief can swallow you whole, but it's not a life sentence. The morning will come, and with it, Joy." This is a very empowering statement that seeks to inspire her listeners to take courage, rejoice, leave the sadness behind, and just conquer their fears.  What I love about Mary's songwriting is her deep metaphorical lyricism that makes her songs stand out among the clutter of songs in this age of digital music. You'll definitely know that her songs are very well thought of...

“We Worship You I AM”, Doyin Teru – Worship in Spirit and Truth

"We Worship You I AM" by Doyin Teru is a relatively simple song with a massive vision and message behind it. The song was born in a moment of prayer. In Bolaji Teru's own words: "Few minutes into the prayers, I knelt down on my knees with the consciousness that God is present and must be revered. In a moment, tears began to flow from my eyes as I heard the song in my spirit as if it's being sung by thousands of others. So I joined them to sing the song and right after, took my phone, recorded the song and gradually began to develop and produced it." In other words, this isn't just another worship track; it's an invitation to join in with a heavenly chorus.  The song repeats a few core phrases: "We worship Your Majesty," "We worship Your Royalty," and the declaration, "We worship You, I AM." Instead of crowding the song with many words, it leans on the weight of God's revealed name  —  "I AM," the Etern...
