Carmel Worship - Shape of the Cross (CCM)

If you're looking for a beautiful and powerful song to listen to this Lent, I highly recommend 'Shape of the Cross' by Carmel Worship. This song beautifully captures the essence of Lent and the power of God's love and grace. The lyrics speak of our fallenness and how God's love is greater than our sin, leading us to the newness of life. The acoustic-driven melody and richly-textured chords in the bridge add to the spiritual depth of the song. It starts with a humble plea to the Lord, asking Him to fill us with grace and cover our evil, and the chorus beautifully captures the vastness of God's love. The second verse speaks of how we are buried with Christ and raised to walk in the newness of life, even when we fall again. The bridge takes us deeper into the heart of salvation, reminding us of the shape of the cross and the depth of God's love. 'Shape of the Cross' is a powerful and inspiring song that will uplift your spirit and remind you of the tran

HeIsTheArtist - God Is On My Mind (R&B)

HeIsTheArtist's song 'God Is On My Mind' is a great reminder in today's fast-paced world that God is always with us, even when we lack patience. The song reiterates the biblical message that sometimes we have to wait for God's greatest gifts, but they are always worth the wait. The song begins with the repeated phrase 'Each and every time' followed by 'Woosah,' which means taking a deep breath during stressful situations. This is a powerful way to convey the importance of pausing and taking a deep breath when we feel overwhelmed. The song continues to repeat 'Woosah' throughout, creating a rhythmic and meditative experience for the listener. The lyrics touch on the idea that people have tried to take advantage of the artist, to 'make a buck off' him, but the artist remains confident that 'God is on his way.'

The song's lyrics are a reminder that we don't have to carry our burdens alone, and that we can find hope and freedom in Jesus. Powell's inspiration for the song came from a powerful encounter with a woman consumed with anger and bitterness, who was struggling to let go of her burden. Amanda shares: 'The day before writing this song, I had just been talking with a woman who was consumed with anger, resentment, and bitterness; and she wasn’t ready to let go of it. Her burden had become such a part of her that she was more comfortable carrying it around with her than laying it down at the foot of the cross. I remember leaving that situation and just crying for HOURS! Praying on her behalf that God would help her to let go, and to forgive, so her healing could start. My heart was shattered for her. As I was lay
