Wake Me Up (Amnesia) ~ G1C

This is the Group 1 Crew after Blanca left. I love the upbeat tempo of this song and the message that speaks to the struggle we all face - doing what we don't want and not doing what we do want. G1C asks God to remind us of who we are, to "wake us up" when we forget or "get amnesia". It's very clever and very accurate. 

Happy Listening!

Lift Up Your Eyes ~ Danny Gokey

The music of this song just begs to be danced to! It's fun, upbeat, and just makes your mood lift (even if you're already happy :). The chorus is unique because it is similar to familiar hymns of Christmas time, yet fresh and new. 

Happy Listening!

Easier (The Song of the Wisemen) ~ Jason Gray


Jason Gray has an album that tells the story of Christmas in song through different perspectives. This song is from the perspective of the Wise Men. It's a very clever and unique idea, I think.








Happy Listening!

Little Drummer Boy ~ for King & Country

If there is one thing fK&C does really well, it is drums, so this is the perfect song for them. I really like this rendition of Little Drummer Boy. Happy Listening!

Look A Little Higher ~ JJ Weeks Band

Sometimes trusting God is a minute by minute conscious act. This is especially true if you're walking through dark times. JJ Weeks Band seeks to encourage all of us to continually lay down all of our fears, doubts, and cares at Jesus' feet and look up to the God who is above all and in all. He loves us and cares for us. 

Happy Listening!

 

Newsboys "Love Riot" // New Album

The Newsboys have a new album. Overall, it's a pretty good collection. You have "Guilty" from God's Not Dead 2, "Crazy" (which you may have heard on the radio), as well as "You Hold It All", another radio song. 

You Hold It All is such a reassuring song. We humans like to have a semblance of control, and then we freak out when it's all "out of control". Maybe then we need the reminder that it's not under our control to begin with :)

Happy Listening!
