New City Collective and Dave Aubrey - Rest in the Shadows (CCM Christmas)

New City Collective and Dave Aubrey - Rest in the Shadows
New City Collective and Dave Aubrey have released a Christian Christmas track called Rest in the Shadows.

We are sharing the title track to New City Collective's brand new advent album. 

Lyrics:

Eden's rest is lost and forgotten
Kings and kingdoms have come and gone
Shadows lengthened, hearts now hardened
Longing for the Morning Star

Every generation's been groaning
Darkness filling an earth left undone
How long 'til our God will save us
In the shadows, wait for the Sun

Heaven's army bursts on the night sky
Announcing peace, God's rest to bring
Shepherds, wisemen, all who come, find
In Bethlehem is born the King

Unto us God's Son is given
Here in us Christ Jesus now dwells
He the promised One will save us
In the shadows, Immanuel

See Him now, our Savior dying
Pierced for our sins by His own design
This darkest shadow no supplying
Life and light to all mankind

Risen now, the Light is shining
Filling earth with His love and truth
'til the day He comes back for us
And all creation will be made new

All our sin now long forgotten
God's great love forever we'll sing
Until then we'll live victorious
For in these shadows we rest in Him

You can rest in the shadows
There is hope in the shadows
There's good news in the shadows
Find His rest in the shadows

Brandon Lake - Praise You Anywhere (CCM)

'Praise You Anywhere' by Brandon Lake is a powerful anthem that encourages us to turn to praise in every season of life. No matter the circumstances we face, choosing to praise God will shift our perspective and ignite faith within us.

'Jesus Name' by Seek and Surrender: Embracing the Promise in Prayer

'Jesus Name' by Seek and Surrender is about how powerful it is to speak the name of Jesus. Many Christians will say, 'yes, I know that', but the truth of the matter is that speaking His name is a faith-driven force that is often overlooked as we go through our day-to-day activities.  This song gently reminds us that the truth of Jesus can overpower any lie we face, and reassures us of the freedom we find in Him. It's like having a conversation with your heart and reminding it of hope.  But there is more to this song. It expands on the promises that Jesus made about faith - especially the faith that can move mountains. I have to admit that I have doubts whether my faith can move mountains… I know I still have a way to grow in that. Thankfully, we don't need to to have mastered that level of faith before we see the effects of speaking His name.  Part of the lyrics refer to the passage, 'When you ask, it will be given unto you'. What does that mean? Anythin
