"Joy In The Morning (Tauren Wells Cover)" by Zac Adams: A Song for Every Struggle, A Promise for Every Heart


Zac Adams releases his rendition of "Joy In The Morning," a song about the fact that no matter how dark your life is, there is always joy on the horizon. With lines like "If it doesn't make sense right now, it will when it's over" and "There will be joy in the morning," the song emphasizes God's faithfulness and encourages us to hold on to our faith through all of the struggles that we face. Just hold on a little longer, and under His guidance, everything will look better than ever before. 

Zac Adams - Joy In The Morning (Tauren Wells Cover)Zac shares that he chose to cover this song as an encouragement because when he was facing dark times, these mornings of joy felt impossibly far away. God never let him go; He proved His faithfulness time and time again, and this inspired Zac to share that same hope with you as well. The chorus triggers such a powerful paradigm shift, "If it's not good, then He's not done," encouraging us to be patient and trust God's promise that restoration and renewal are coming.

With its uplifting melody and powerful lyrics, it shouldn't come as a surprise that this cover is part of Zac's EP "Give Me Your Eyes." The EP is a collection of songs that invites us to let go of despair and trust in God's timing. May this song remind you that no matter how dark life may seem, there are brighter days ahead.

"At The Feet (Midnight)" by Action Worship: Surrender and Rest

(by Jasper Tan) After making a review of Action Worship's song "All Praise (Dawn)" early this year (which, by the way, moved me so much), Action Worship is here once more with a beautiful follow-up single called "At The Feet (Midnight)." Continuing their songwriting sessions at a beach house retreat, "At The Feet" is a powerful and once more immersive Christian contemporary worship song that captures a raw and intimate atmosphere of worship. Like their other previously released songs, the track is anchored in a "Beach House" setting, leaning on a warm, organic, and slightly lo-fi feel as compared to the more traditional stadium worship recordings of other Worship songs. This makes the song feel more like a shared spiritual experience rather than a polished studio recording. This has always been Action Worship's greatest strength with their songs. And this creative process has definitely defined the signature sound of the Action Worship te...

"Lord You Are So Awesome" by Mario Tucker: Turning Everyday Moments into Praise

“Lord You Are So Awesome” by Mario Tucker is a reminder that worship doesn’t have to be complicated in order to be powerful. The song is based on the fact that what matters the most is that God’s greatness deserves our constant praise. Our praise doesn't have to meet any quality standards for it to be pleasing to God. So, ask yourself... when was the last time that you took a moment to say, “Lord you are so awesome / Lord you are so great / Your name is above the Heavens”? This song invites you to be constantly aware of God’s greatness, and that includes awareness outside the walls of church, like during car rides, your quiet time, and those precious triumphs in life. It's an awareness that leads to response. “So let’s praise and magnify your name.” Praise is not a matter of passively observing and responding... it’s a call to turn your admiration into active devotion. Think about it for a moment: what would change in your life if praise became your first reaction instead of ...

"Psalm 9 (Thank You)" by Red Letter Society: God's Sovereign Justice

Jordan West and the Red Letter Society continue their ambitious journey through the Psalms. "Psalm 9 (Thank You)" is a message of thanksgiving to a sovereign, righteous God who defends the oppressed and judges evil with perfect justice.  The song emphasizes the two core promises found in Psalm 9: "The Lord is a refuge for the oppressed, a stronghold in times of trouble." And, those who know God's name can trust Him, because He "has never forsaken those who seek Him." So, what do you do when depression fills your heart? Do you feel abandoned? Instead of focusing on pain, this song declares that God remains seated through (your) chaos. He is and always will be a stronghold even when "war" draws near. The lyrics ask: "My trials feel unseen // Have you forsaken me?" , and emphasize that you are not unseen.  The chorus invites us to praise through our fears. "I will thank you," because we trust the promise that our God judges...
