Here to Stay by Loulita Gill – A Song for When Life Feels Out of Control


Loulita Gill's song "Here to Stay" might just be the gentle reminder you need when it feels like life is spinning out of control. Written with her longtime friend and producer, Aron Bicskey, this song is about God being your constant factor and unshakeable foundation in a world that is anything but stable.

Loulita Gill - Here to StayThe lyrics are very comforting in times when confusion pulls you down, just like Loulita sings, "Even when I feel that I'm a stranger / Living in a world out of control." We've probably all felt similar moments in our lives. Loulita continues with a powerful chorus: "You never leave me / You never shy away / You're here to stay." Just let this truth sink in for a moment… What can possibly go wrong when we have Him in our lives?

The lyric "Draw me closer / Draw me deeper into your love" is an invitation to drop everything that is weighing us down and simply run to Him. When it feels like you're drowning or doubts are flooding your heart, may this song help to remind you that He's unchanging, here to stay, and always ready to offer hope.

If you've ever doubted whether God is truly here to stay, then give this song a listen. Let Loulita's voice guide you back to the essence of His promises. It's a song that you'll probably want to listen to again and again.

"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...

"Temptation" by Dax: Fighting Spiritual Warfare Through Faith and Prayer

Have you ever felt like the battle against temptation is relentless? In his powerful track "Temptation," Dax reminds us that every moment of resistance is a victory. He doesn't shy away from the reality that "temptations outside, knocking at my door." Instead of hiding the struggle, he exposes it. He admits that while he "won the battle last night," the war continues. In other words, spiritual discipline is a daily choice. Dax explains that temptation finds safety in an "idle mind" and when we lack purpose. But most of all, he offers a strategy for triumph: "starve my flesh, then feed my spirit with faith." So, why trade your peace of mind for fleeting pleasure? The lyrics trace our struggles back to the garden and "Adam and Eve," and also point us toward redemption.  "Down by the Riverbend // in the garden, where the snake tempted Adam and Eve, // they ate the fruit and from those seeds // grew the roots of this ...

"The Perfect Love of Christ" by John Long: Mercy That Draws Us Near

(By Jasper Tan) It's the "love month" already, and there's no other way to celebrate it best but to remember the greatest lover of all, Jesus Christ. In John Long's CCM Folk song "The Perfect Love of Christ", John emotionally sings about how overwhelming it is to be loved by Jesus. All that He did for us is something that we cannot easily replicate, yet we usually take it for granted in favor of other earthly pleasures. We always want to say that we love someone, yet we can't fully back it up with a love that is pure. Because often than not, there's still a piece of our selfishness residing in our hearts. But Jesus does not have that. His love is selfless and always puts others' welfare before Himself. For how can He still love the sinners that wronged Him? That mocked Him and took away His life? As John emotionally sings these lines, "Oh my God, how could it be? That You would love me, That You would hold, That You would take the ones t...
