"Lord of Life" by KINN is a modern-day hymn, a debut single, penned by three family members—Dorry, Ollie, and Mim. The song is a reminder to look for God's presence, even when the world around us feels quite overwhelming. The lyrics beautifully capture the struggle that is so familiar for most—feeling lost in the middle of this endless stream of distractions and digital noise that hits us from almost every direction. 'Almost'… because there is a direction that replaces the chaos with peace.
The lyrics highlight these sources of noise, "All the screens lighting our digital lives / It's so hard to hear when you speak," and how easy it is to get disconnected from God's voice in the hustle.
The song reassures us that this disconnect can be fixed because He isn't far away. "Through the noise, tune to the frequency where your spirit reaches me," an encouragement to quiet down and listen closely for His whisper—a call to reconnect with Him. The repeated lyric, "Tune me in to all that you're offering," reminds me of the older generation radios, with a dial that is used to tune into the desired station. He fine-tunes us when we desire to fully embrace His peace and guidance, much like a dial on the radio that needs to be adjusted with gentle nudges until the source can be heard clearly. Jesus wants to help you with the fine-tuning, but only you can let Him in. He is never silent, even if we fail to notice Him at times. So when His voice isn't coming through that clearly, let Him help you to clear out the noise and hear His whisper.
May this song serve as both a prayer and an invitation to find your rest in God's constant presence. And when you feel drowned out by life's noise, may this song remind you that He's nearby, never silent, and encourage you to let Him tune you in to all the things that He's offering.
