Prepare for a stunning and thoughtful song. Riley Clemmons performs ‘Jesus Cries’ in this official music video.

Right from the start, Riley Clemmons is seen with a band in a dimly lit room. There is authenticity, and she vulnerably sings about our hard times in life and how God knows the tears that we cry.

The chorus sings out:

‘When you weep, 

He's there weeping with you

Jesus cries too’

The tone painting on this song is incredible. There are such unexpected vocal moments. It invites you to pour out your heart and cry out your tears when you are hurting and confused. Riley sings out and invites you to be honest and open with your Savior. Life is hard, and it is great to have music that invites our emotions to the cross of Christ. 

Her singing is an outcry to the Lord and is beautifully done. The simplicity of this music video matches the simplicity of the song. It is the shortest verse in Scripture but one of the most profound. There is great depth in the fact that our God, our Savior, wept. Jesus cried because He came into this world to fully take on the suffering of all of humanity. He did not enjoy the death of loved ones like Lazarus, and He was perfectly human and perfectly God. 

As we listen to this song and reflect on our own hardships and tears, Riley reminds us to rest in the truth that Jesus is there weeping with us. He empathizes with our sorrow, loss, hurt, and confusion. He welcomes our pain and questions and sits with us in our tears. In fact, Scripture tells us that He catches every tear that we have in His bottle. (Psalm 56:8) He cares for you personally and what is going on, and He loves His children.

“Jesus wept” John 11:35

Amen. Discover additional worship resources at www.worshipleader.com

A young woman’s beautiful cover of the popular praise and worship song “Lord, I Need You” will touch your heart.

This world will try and test your patience and push you to your breaking point. Situations and circumstances will leave you battered and bruised, leaving scars in their wake that serve as reminders. Times will arise that will pull, stretch and test your faith.

Life can be a challenging and brutal experience, leaving even the most mentally and physically tough person shattered and broken. Sadly, there are people who, every day, try to make it through by their own power and sheer force of will. This attitude and course of action is a recipe for disaster and destruction.

God will and does offer His love, guidance and protection. But before that can happen, we must realize that we are incredibly limited and unable to do much alone. We would fall apart if not for Him. Even those who have long been committed followers of Jesus Christ still need God’s touch and protection.

In a clip posted on YouTube, one young woman gives a superb performance of “Lord, I Need You.” It’s a beautiful tune about surrendering everything to Him and laying all cares, worries, burdens and concerns at His feet.

The song’s lovely chorus, simple but highly effective and memorable, emphasizes how much we need God in control of every aspect of our lives.

“Lord, I need You, oh, I need You

Every hour, I need You

My one defense, my righteousness

Oh God, how I need You”

Situations in life will weigh you down, both physically and mentally. There is simply no way of handling all the cares and worries that come with life alone. But there is one who wants our burdens. We can give everything to Him, and He will work in those situations and circumstances.

Matthew 11:28 “Come to me, all you who are troubled and weighted down with care, and I will give you rest.”

Check out this worshipful and adorable performance. A musical family’s heartfelt rendition of ‘He is Still on the Throne.’

At the start of this video, the father shares an encouraging message of hope that even in an uncertain world of trials, God is still on the throne. He and his wife have six beautiful children. Five are seen standing next to him, and the youngest one is sitting with his mother at the piano.  

The wife begins to play the piano, and the dad starts to sing the first verse. The children anticipate their time to join in singing. They smile as their dad leads. The family all join in during the chorus. Their harmonies and youthful voices bring a smile to anyone’s face. It is precious to watch the younger boys trying to sing into their personal microphones. The comedy keeps on coming. All are clothed professionally in their “Sunday best” and try their best to be attentive and focused.

Hearing this young family sing out the truth that salvation is secure in Jesus and He is still reigning fills us with hope. You will be excited to hear what they will do next and watch these kids perform. The little girl is the only daughter and shines bright, singing out. All of the boys are little gentlemen. 

The verses are inspiring that even in the hardships when we are oppressed by the work of the enemy, we have the hope of Christ in us. We can overcome the most challenging obstacles. Seeing the next generation sing out about the faithfulness of God reminds us of His continued goodness. He reveals Himself to young people and old. He is worthy of glory in every generation. Watching this family lead us in glorifying the Lord gives us great joy, plus the comedy from the youngest performers is priceless.

“One generation commends your works to another; they tell of your mighty acts.” Psalm 149:3-4

Watch this stunning a cappella rendition of the song ‘Goodness of God.’ The vocals will captivate you and give you chills!

‘I love You, Lord, oh Your mercy never fails me

All my days, I've been held in Your hands

From the moment that I wake up until I lay my head

Oh, I will sing of the goodness of God’

The woman singing in the video has such a beautiful voice, and the man singing along with her adds different harmonies that really elevate the song. They sound wonderful together, and it is a joy to hear them sing from their heart and glorify God with their voices. What a beautiful cover of this wonderful song!

The story behind the song ‘The Goodness of God’ and how it came to be is also beautiful. Jenn Johnson of Bethel Music shared about the adoption process of their son, Ryder, and how that influenced her to write this song.

“During the adoption process, I found myself driving on a long country road. I was just singing to the Lord when I recorded a song on my phone about the ‘faithfulness’ and ‘kindness of God.’ I wrote and sang most of ‘Goodness of God’ as an overflow of my heart at that moment,” she said.

This is one song that has encouraged and uplifted people when they hear it. It is a great reminder of how God runs after us to cover us and shower us with his goodness and faithfulness. He is our rock and strong foundation, and we can sing His praises for the rest of our days.

We hope that you enjoyed listening to this a cappella rendition of the ‘Goodness of God’ today! 

Psalm 36:5 Your steadfast love, O LORD, extends to the heavens, your faithfulness to the clouds.

Alan Jackson's beautiful ‘I Want To Stroll Over Heaven With You’ performance is a touching testament to his deep faith and enduring talent. Known for a plethora of country hits, Alan also shines brightly when he sings for the Lord. This live performance for Gaither Music is a beautiful example of his devotion and heartfelt expression of longing for the eternal beauty of Heaven.

In ‘I Want To Stroll Over Heaven With You,’ Alan's smooth, soothing voice gently guides listeners through a vision of heavenly peace and reunion. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of a paradise where troubles and heartaches vanish, replaced by eternal joy and beauty. The song resonates deeply with those who share Alan's faith, offering a comforting glimpse of the afterlife.

The song begins with a reflection on the blessings received from above. Alan sings, 

‘If I surveyed all the good things that come to me from above

 If I count all the blessings from the storehouse of love 

I'd simply ask for a favor of him beyond mortal king 

And I'm sure that he'd grant it again.’

These lines set the tone for a heartfelt plea for God’s favor, emphasizing gratitude and trust in God's generosity. It's a tender promise of reunion and eternal companionship, free from the burdens of earthly life.

Alan's performance is not just a song but a prayerful expression of hope and faith. He conveys a longing to explore the beauties of Heaven, which earthly time and treasures have often kept him from experiencing. 

In this performance, Alan Jackson’s voice and heartfelt delivery make ‘I Want To Stroll Over Heaven With You’ a moving tribute to the power of faith and the promise of eternal life. It’s a song that offers comfort, hope, and a glimpse of the heavenly strolls that await believers.

Revelations 21:3-4 "And I heard a loud voice from the throne saying, 'Look! God’s dwelling place is now among the people, and he will dwell with them. They will be his people, and God himself will be with them and be their God. He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away.'"

Jada Facer's chilling rendition of ‘Oceans (Where Feet May Fail)’ is a breathtaking testament to her artistry and spiritual depth. Standing poised on a bridge with her guitar in hand, Jada, accompanied by a friend on piano, creates a performance that feels like a divine encounter with our Savior. As she strums the opening chords and sings the hauntingly beautiful lyrics, the atmosphere transforms into a sacred space, inviting listeners into the throne room of God.

The setting is ethereal. The bridge serves as a bridge between the earthly and the heavenly, echoing the song’s themes of faith and divine guidance. Jada's voice, both powerful and soothing, intertwines with the piano’s delicate tones, creating a musical landscape where every note seems to resonate with profound meaning. The lyrics—"You call me out upon the waters, the great unknown where feet may fail"—are delivered with such sincerity that they feel like a personal invitation to trust in God’s unending protection and grace.

As Jada sings, "When oceans rise, my soul will rest in Your embrace," her performance envelops the listener in a sense of peace and assurance. Her portrayal of faith's strength in the face of uncertainty is deeply moving, accentuated by her gentle yet commanding presence. The song’s powerful refrain becomes a heartfelt plea that echoes through the performance, leaving a lasting impression of devotion and surrender.

The chilling beauty of Jada’s cover lies in its ability to transport the listener to a place of introspection and reverence. Each verse and chorus is a reminder of the boundless grace and unwavering support that faith provides.

As we reflect on this worship moment, let us be reminded of Psalm 46:1, "God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble." We hope you enjoyed this worship moment and that it brought you a sense of peace and spiritual renewal.

Psalm 46:1 "God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble."

An incredibly talented, award-winning family of musicians, The Isaacs, captivated with their beautiful cover of “What a Friend We Have in Jesus.”

Hymns are some of the best, most emotional pieces of music. They are also some of the best-written songs you’ll ever come across. Hymns tell of Christ’s love, forgiveness, mercy and grace in ways that other songs do not.

In addition to the emotion and message conveyed in those well-written tunes, they are severely underutilized. Many churches have moved away from the old hymns, choosing to use more contemporary Christian music. Churches and congregations can listen and play whatever they like, but nothing will ever beat “Great is Thy Faithfulness,” “How Great Thou Art,” “Amazing Grace” or any other hymn.

Given this trend away from hymns, it’s always a treat to see and hear someone sing one of those old tunes. In a clip posted on YouTube, The Isaacs dazzled with a lovely cover of “What a Friend We Have in Jesus.” Their vocal performances are wonderful, full of emotion and feeling about Jesus Christ, the Savior of the world.

The song’s opening verse and lyrics are simple but memorable and very powerful.

“What a friend we have in Jesus

All sins and griefs to bear

What a privilege to carry

Everything to God in prayer”

The group’s outstanding performance and the song’s lyrics are terrific reminders of the loving and mighty God we serve. While we may try to go through difficulties and certain situations on our own, we are only adding to our burdens and heartaches. If we could only get out of our own way and ask Him for assistance, Christ will work in that situation and take care of everything.

Psalm 55:22 “Put your cares on the Lord, and he will be your support; he will not let the upright man be moved.”

A massive and incredibly talented choir turned in a chilling rendition of the beloved hymn “It Is Well with My Soul.”

The world is a lost, fallen and sad place. Many people are hurting, struggling and crying out for help and hope. Those individuals want something that will ease the pain and provide momentary relief.

Sadly, this is the current state of our world. People are hurting and lost in a society filled with chaos and disorder. Most people have no idea what peace feels and looks like. They will look every which way trying to find even a minute of tranquility and calm, and always come up empty.

But there is one who provides a peace that surpasses all understanding. When everything around us is hectic and out of control, Jesus Christ can and will provide a place of comfort and peace. He will be the shelter during the storm, a calm presence among the chaos and confusion in the world.

In a clip posted on YouTube, a choir composed of dozens of musically gifted vocalists sings a tune about the peace offered by Jesus Christ. “It is Well with My Soul” is a beloved and beautiful hymn about knowing that whatever happens in this life, Christ is still in control and remains on the throne.

The hymn’s opening verse is lovely. It perfectly captures and articulates the kind of peace and calm offered by Jesus Christ. While they may be more than familiar to followers of Christ, the verse tells of something many in the world don’t know but desperately need.

“When peace like a river, attendeth my way

When sorrows like sea billows roll

Whatever my lot, Thou hast taught me to say

It is well, it is well, with my soul”

We can rest assured that whatever we come up against or encounter in life, Christ remains faithful. That is more than enough to give us peace, whatever our lot in life.

John 16:33 “I have said all these things to you so that in me you may have peace. In the world, you have trouble, but take heart! I have overcome the world.”

The incredibly talented Christian musician Matthew West has put out the official lyric video for his new song “Chosen,” which is a tune about the awe-inspiring love of Jesus Christ.

The Bible states that we’re all sinners. For all have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God. Everyone on Earth, in their arrogance and disobedience, has willfully turned away from God, choosing their way over His.

Luckily, because of His incredible and mighty love for us, He made a way for us, a bunch of sinners, to receive forgiveness, get right with Him and experience eternal life someday. Because of this love, He sent His only Son, who willingly went to the cross, bleeding and dying as He took our place. Jesus Christ paid the debt and made the ultimate sacrifice for me and you.

What wonderful and powerful love!

Even though Christ went through all of that, dying and later resurrecting for the sins of humanity, some people still believe they are too far gone for Christ. They feel their sins are too much for God to overlook. That couldn’t be further from the truth.

In the lyric video for his song “Chosen,” Matthew sings about this wondrous, life-changing love. While singing the beautifully written lyrics, Matthew addresses those who may feel their sins are too great and could never be forgiven.

The song’s chorus is simple but full of emotion and truth. Christ died for all, demonstrating His love for us on the cross.

“You have been chosen
Seen, known and loved every moment
Called by your name
Yes, He knows it”

No matter what we may do or where we may go, we’ll never be able to escape Christ’s love. We’ll also never be able to change the fact that He went to the cross, suffered and died for you and me.

Romans 5:8 “But God has made clear his love to us, in that, when we were still sinners, Christ gave his life for us.”

The incredibly talented and popular Christian music group, The Collingsworth Family, has turned in an inspiring and uplifting performance of “Praise the Lord.”

This world can be a sad, lonely and cruel place. Sadly, there will be situations you’ll endure that will leave you beaten, battered and bruised. Circumstances might even get so bad that you reach the point where you begin to consider giving up and throwing in the towel. Life is not fair, and anyone who says otherwise is incredibly wrong.

Yes, situations in life may become overwhelming, pushing you to your breaking point. But no matter how deep and dark the valley, the Lord will always remain steadfast and faithful. He will never leave or forsake you. Instead, He will stay by your side, going through the fight and enduring the pain with you.

In a clip posted on social media, The Collingsworth Family performed “Praise the Lord.” It’s a tune that reminds us that no matter what may happen or what we’re going through, He will always remain faithful.

All the vocal performances are top-notch, and you’ll probably want to go back and listen to them several times. But, of course, it’s the lyrics and the song’s message that are the focus.

The song also encourages those going through difficulties to hold onto their faith and belief in Christ. The tune’s chorus is beautiful, informing and reminding Christians about the powerful and mighty God we serve. While what we’re going through at the time may seem unbearable, He is bigger than all of it.

“For the chains that seems to bind you
Serve only to remind you
That they drop powerless behind you
When you praise Him”

Regardless of the lies or obstacles Satan may put in your path, continue praising the Lord even during difficulties. The Bible instructs Christians to praise God in all situations and circumstances, which includes trials and hardships.

1 Thessalonians 5:16-18 “Have joy at all times. Keep on with your prayers. In everything, give praise: for this is the purpose of God in Christ Jesus for you.”

Popular Christian musician Jeremy Camp released ‘Ready Now’ in his new powerful official music video. It is a must-watch! He recently teamed up with fellow Christian rap artist Lecrae to release this fresh version, and the beat is incredible. 

Jeremy Camp first released the song with the album, Deeper Waters, in May 2024. But the collaboration between these two incredible musicians certainly adds a new dynamic to the powerful track. Lecrae helps bring a unique blend of worship and rap, which only serves to further amplify the song’s message.

‘No holding back, do whatever it takes

Take all these fears and break off all these chains

If You say I'm ready

I'm ready now, I'm ready now’

‘Ready Now’ is deeply personal for Jeremy. He shared from personal experience that the song is a declaration of surrender. It’s about breaking free from fears and letting go of control, which is hard to do. We just want situations in life to turn out okay. Jeremy emphasizes that the song is about wholeheartedly trusting God, even when life feels uncertain. The chorus line is where listeners can feel the release of letting go, both musically and spiritually.

Jeremy explained how the rawness of the lyrics and the sound of the song captures the tension of surrendering fully to God. As a fellow brother in Christ, he admits that letting go isn’t easy, but he believes true freedom is found on the other side of that struggle. 

We just love it when musicians like Jeremy Camp and Lecrae team up. Lecrae’s talents add a whole new depth to the meaning of letting God fight our battles. As a Christian artist known for his faith-filled messages, Lecrae brings a fresh new beat to the song, and you can’t help but feel as though he’s giving you a pep talk. It makes the message of the song more relatable and real! 

We hope you love this new combination of both artists’ styles, making this version of ‘Ready Now’ a must-listen for Christian music fans. Our faith walk will always have challenging situations and circumstances, but Christ will always walk alongside us and fight for us. 

Hebrews 10:23 “Let us hold fast the profession of our faith without wavering; for he is faithful that promised.”
