Listen to this beautiful song from Ben Fuller and featuring Carrie Underwood titled ‘If It Was Up To Me.’ The powerful lyrics remind us that the trials we would rather avoid often become the very soil where our faith grows the deepest. God’s plans are always better, even if they don’t alway unfold the way that we think they should.

‘Yeah I like it easy, but that’s not how it’s been  
I’m at that part of the movie when the good guy might not win 
Did I take a wrong turn? Why do You have me here? 
I want that happy ending, not this one where I’m in tears’

What a positive and encouraging song! Ben Fuller shares his thoughts about the song and how it was working with Carrie Underwood.

“When I wrote this song, I kept thinking about how difficult life can be and that if I was in control, and it was up to me, I’d make it a lot easier on myself – but I’d never know then how good God’s plans can be,” says Ben Fuller. “I’m so grateful Carrie wanted to share her love for Jesus on a song with me. She was so kind and calm when we were in the studio. And I’m pretty sure I smiled almost as big as God did when she stepped up to the mic that day!”

Carrie also had the highest praise for Ben when talking about collaborating with him for this song.

“Ben is such a talented singer and songwriter, and I love the joy he brings to singing about his faith, which we have in common,” shares Carrie Underwood.  “I was honored when he asked me to sing with him on ‘If It Was Up To Me,’ and I love how our voices blend on such a positive and uplifting song.”

We hope that you enjoyed listening to ‘If It Was Up To Me’ today, and may the song be a reminder of God’s good and perfect plan for you!

I have to tell you about something that just filled my soul with so much hope and awe. You know John Foster, that young man from ‘American Idol’—well, he just made his Grand Ole Opry debut,  singing a powerful ‘How Great Thou Art’ rendition and honestly, it felt like watching a holy moment, a right of passage, or like getting a gold star, unfold right before our eyes.

Picture this: the Grand Ole Opry stage in Nashville, all those years of history humming beneath the lights. And there’s John, standing there, guitar in hand, in a creamy colored tux with this quiet but fierce gratitude shining through him. He didn’t just step up to perform—he took a moment to thank everyone who had walked alongside him—the people who believed in him when he was still learning, those who taught him to sing and play, but mostly, he thanked God. The Almighty God who gave him the courage and the gift to stand on that stage and sing with everything in his heart.

Then he sang ‘How Great Thou Art’—and oh my, it was like the whole room stopped breathing just to listen. His voice carried all the weight of faith and praise, that old hymn coming alive in such a fresh, powerful way. You could feel the worries and the noise of everyday life just melt away, replaced with pure worship and awe. How he was able to make it sound like worship with a hint of country was amazing to watch. 

Watching John sing felt like watching someone who knows their gift is not just for themselves, but for something bigger. I love seeing moments like this unfold, don’t you?  It was as if he knew it was what the good Lord had created him for. It was a reminder that every time we step up, every time we share what we’ve been given, we’re telling a story far greater than us. And that night? John was telling that story beautifully.

Honestly, if you ever needed a reminder that God is still moving, still lifting up new voices to praise Him, this was it. I’m just so grateful I got to witness it, and I can’t wait to see where God takes him next.

Psalm 96:1-2 “Sing to the Lord a new song; sing to the Lord, all the earth. Sing to the Lord, praise his name; proclaim his salvation day after day.”

This family’s fantastic ‘Praise The Lord’ cover will lift your spirit and warm your heart. The loving family of six is sincere and impressive in their musical unity. Watch the clip to see them come together in an act of praise. 

The second youngest of the group, 9-year-old Westin Asidor, is the leading voice throughout the whole song. His childish and sweet voice sounds endearing against the vocals of his family: his two parents, two older sisters, and his younger sister. It’s obvious that each individual is an experienced singer. They all harmonize together masterfully. The family also saves the best part for last. At the end of the song, young Westin lets out an incredibly powerful, lingering note that the average singer would certainly struggle to sing. 

In the video, the family walks and sings together in a beautiful pond-filled park. They wear similar formal and tasteful old-fashioned clothes and seem to enjoy themselves as they spend time together in musical bliss. There are a few different songs called ‘Praise the Lord’ out there, but the song they’re singing is by The Imperials. Some of the lyrics are: 

‘Praise the Lord
He can work through those
Who praise Him
Praise the Lord’

‘Praise the Lord’ is all about choosing not to fall in the pitfalls of Satan and remembering the one who holds you up. It’s a powerful reminder that no matter what situation you’re in, you can praise the Lord. Even when Daniel was placed at the jaws of lions, he kneeled, prayed, and praised the Lord. As believers, we are united in our faith and share the Holy Spirit. Through our strength in Jesus Christ, we can be just like Daniel and give praise to God in the most trying of circumstances.

“By him therefore let us offer the sacrifice of praise to God continually, that is, the fruit of our lips giving thanks to his name.”  Hebrews 13 :15

The long-beloved hymn ‘Nearer My God to Thee’ gets a soul-stirring rendition in this new YouTube Video from the youthful Hudson Harmony Band. With beautiful musical notes of cello, piano, and vocals against stunning backdrops, it’s both a wonderful visual and auditory piece of work. Watch the clip to see the group’s devoted performance. 

The video shows the singers performing at the Valley View Bible Church in Paradise Valley, Arizona. The church features old brickwork and large, beautiful panes of stained glass. The video switches from the singers to views of awesome-looking churches across the world, each in a dazzling place surrounded by gorgeous scenery. 

The harmonious group of young people could not have picked a better song to sing. ‘Nearer My God to Thee’ is a hopeful old hymn that speaks about how every passing day is a day closer to heaven, and the group sings it well. Some of the lyrics are:

‘Though like the wanderer, the sun gone down,
darkness be over me, my rest a stone;
yet in my dreams I'd be
nearer, my God, to thee’

The hymn was written in 1841 by Sarah Flower Adams. She wrote over the span of one week to accompany her pastor’s sermon on “Jacob’s Ladder,” also known as “Jacob’s dream.” It was originally set to music by her sister, Eliza Flower. 

It’s believed that ’“Nearer My God to Thee’ is what the band on the Titanic was playing when it sank in 1912. There are few song legacies that can match that. Sarah’s hymn has remarkable longevity that will likely continue for many years to come.

“And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away.” Revelation 21:4

Twin brothers deliver a powerful rendition of the Gospel classic, ‘Old Time Religion.’ Picture this: two silver-haired twin brothers, standing side by side in their basement living room like they’ve done for decades—matching flannel shirts, weathered ball caps, and socks catching on the carpet like a couple of teenage boys who never grew out of the joy of music and mischief. Guitars in hand, grins stretched wide across their timeworn faces, and voices full of grit, grace, and gospel.

That’s what the Haneline Twins gave us when they broke out into a soul-lifting, toe-tapping rendition of this old, dusty hymn.  And let me tell you—they didn’t just sing it. They brought it back to life.

The second that first chord hit, I swear I could smell cornbread in a cast iron skillet and feel the thump of a wooden pew under my Sunday dress. It was like being transported back to Vacation Bible School in the ‘70s, where Aunt Jean’s voice would rise above the little upright piano, and somebody’s baby was always crawling down the aisle with a fistful of animal crackers.

These brothers didn’t need a choir, a stage, or a sound system. But their signing was pure, warm, and seasoned—like Sunday roast after church. You could hear the years in their voices. You could feel the fire of their faith. And when they reached that line…

“It was good for Paul and Silas…”

…well, I about shouted “YES IT WAS!” right there at my kitchen table. Because that old-time religion is not just a song, it’s the faith that carried us through hospital rooms, heartbreak, and hard seasons. It’s the faith that saw your mama praying at the sink with sudsy hands and a worn Bible on the counter. It’s the steady, roots-deep kind of belief that doesn’t get old. It ages well, like these sweet men with their graying beards and spark in their eyes.

And let’s talk about the dancing. Oh mercy—it was the kind of joyful, shoulder-bobbing, foot-tapping shuffle that just makes you grin until your cheeks hurt. They were celebrating the God who carried them through wars, wounds, and wild dreams—and still shows up in their living room.

When they got to the verse:
‘Makes me love ev’rybody…’

I just sat there with tears in my eyes and a laugh caught in my throat. Because that’s what the old-time religion really does—it softens the bitter places. It breaks down the walls. It reminds you who you are and whose you are.

So if you need a pick-me-up today, something more than coffee and far better than scrolling the news, watch these two. Let the music wash over you like a baptism of joy. Let their voices remind you of front porch hymns, potluck dinners, and a Jesus who still saves and sings over us.

Jeremiah 6:16  “This is what the Lord says: ‘Stand at the crossroads and look; ask for the ancient paths, ask where the good way is, and walk in it, and you will find rest for your souls.’”

Do you need a little encouragement? Watch this uplifting lyric video of Brand Lake as he joins the Rascal Flats for ‘Stand.’ Life can feel like a hallway with all the lights flickering out. You lose your footing. Your breath catches somewhere between a prayer and a sigh. You didn’t see the layoff coming. Or the diagnosis. Or the way someone you love stops calling, stops caring, stops coming home.

But then, in the swirl of your everyday ache, a song floats in like sunlight through broken blinds and it holds you. Lifts your chin. Whispers: "Stand back up."

That’s exactly what ‘Stand’ by Rascal Flatts and Brandon does. Their lyric video is a musical salve for the weary and the worn-out in a world still reeling from grief, anxiety, and a thousand unknowns. I love how they refreshed this old but well-loved song. 

Brandon absolutely delivered with his unmistakable voice and Spirit-filled fire and joined our favorite country band for a reimagined version of their 2006 hit ‘Stand.’ And it's not just a remake. This isn’t just country meeting gospel. This is a holy collision of grit and grace. Of dirt roads and holy ground. It’s the sound of weary hearts refusing to give up. Of finding the strength to rise from the wreckage with arms wide open toward heaven.

As the music video unfolds, we’re met with billboard signs filled with lyrics and videos that remind us of how we’re falling, faltering, and then rising. Every beat reminds us: we don’t rise alone. The lyrics go straight to the bone: 

‘You get mad, you get strong
Wipe your hands, shake it off
Then you stand’

It’s the anthem for every mama crying on her bathroom floor, every man battling inner demons no one else can see, and every teen wondering if anyone would notice if they just disappeared. But God does. And this song is a holy echo of His voice, calling us back to our feet.

Because sometimes your worship looks like a war cry. Sometimes, standing is your greatest act of surrender. And sometimes, Jesus meets you in the chorus of a song.

The lyric video is more than music and words on a screen — it’s a tapestry of the human spirit woven with the presence of God. You’ll see families, first responders, farmers, nurses — people who’ve been knocked flat by life — and then rose again. Not in their own strength, but because the Lord lends His.

And isn’t that the story of all of us? We break and bend, but with Him, we stand.

“The righteous fall seven times, but they rise again.”  Proverbs 24:16

Jordan Smith turned in a stirring live performance of “How Great Thou Art.” The former winner of “The Voice” dazzled with an outstanding rendition of the beloved church hymn. Watch the short but powerful clip to see and hear Jordan’s awe-inspiring rendition.

When it comes to church music, nothing will ever top those old hymns. Yes, there are plenty of fantastic contemporary Christian songs from many incredibly talented musicians. But those songs do not even come close to matching the hymns. Hymns are so beautifully and powerfully written, and who would ever be against hearing a hymn during a church service?

While it’s evident to all that hymns are far superior to contemporary Christian music, some hymns still stand out among the rest. Of course, you can probably quickly name them, which include “Amazing Grace,” “Great is Thy Faithfulness, “It is Well with My Soul” and “Blessed Assurance,” among others.

In a clip posted on YouTube, Jordan performs another one of those classic hymns, “How Great Thou Art,” which is near and dear to the hearts of many. Jordan, an incredibly talented musician, shows why he won “The Voice.” His version has a slightly different sound and feel than you’re probably used to, but the moving and powerful words are still the same. 

No matter how many times you may have heard that song, those words remain as powerful and relevant as ever. He is still worthy of all praise, glory and honor. None of us would have a chance without Him and the forgiveness and love he so freely provides. We’d all be lost, but Christ forever changed everything for humanity because of His great love for us.

“Then sings my soul, my Savior God, to Thee
How great Thou art, how great Thou art
Then sings my soul, my Savior God, to Thee
How great Thou art, how great Thou art”

How great Thou art, indeed!

Hebrews 13:15 “Let us then make offerings to God at all times through him, that is to say, the fruit of lips giving witness to his name.”

Pat Barrett has released the lyric video for his powerful, moving song “Praise the Lord Forever.” This song and its beautifully crafted official lyric video are not to be missed. Watch the short clip to view the lyric video for Pat Barrett’s tune “Praise the Lord Forever.”

Everyone has stumbled and fallen, and many have the scars to prove it. No one is perfect, not even close. Try as we might, perfection for human beings is an impossibility. As the Bible states in Romans, all have sinned and come up well short of God’s glory.

But despite our sins and disobedience, we can be forgiven. Jesus Christ willingly died, going to the cross, where He gave up Himself, taking our place and enduring our punishment. The blood He shed on Calvary can now wash away sins, making people new creations in Christ. His love and forgiveness are freely offered to all; we simply have to ask for forgiveness and accept those wonderful, life-changing and life-saving gifts.

In Pat’s beautifully written and catchy song, he sings about the difference Christ has made in the lives of those who have been forgiven and accepted His love, mercy and grace. Christ is worthy of all glory, honor and praise for the forgiveness, hope and life that He provides.

“All you citizens of heaven
Sons and daughters of the Lord
Come on church
Lift your voice and sing”

For the difference Christ has made in countless lives and the blessings He continues to bestow freely, what other way can you adequately thank Him? There is no way to express gratitude due to Him properly but to praise Him forever, even that will never be enough. How can you thank someone for providing hope when there was none and offering everlasting life?

Psalm 117:1-2 “Let all nations give praise to the Lord: let all the people give him praise. For great is his mercy to us, and his faith is unchanging forever. Praise be to the Lord.”

Kari Jobe’s powerful live ‘Who Else’ performance is totally awe-inspiring and wonderful. As you listen, you’ll be asking yourself the same question Kari does in the song: ‘Who else is worthy?’ Watch the clip to see the incredible performance and hear the song’s meaningful words.

In a video of the live performance, Kari starts out on a stage basked in a yellow glow. She wears a humble sweater and jeans. She sings most of the lyrics with her eyes shut, putting all of her focus on the words she sings: 

‘Who else is worthy? Who else is worthy?
There is no one, only You, Jesus
You are the infinite God of the ages
Yet You chose to make my heart Your dwelling place’

About five minutes into the eight-minute track, Kari gets on her knees and lifts her hands for the remainder of the song while other singers lead the vocals. The video shows the singers and the crowd from many angles, giving you an immersive feeling like you’re right there with everyone else who’s worshipping and lifting their hands. 

There is such power in Kari’s performance as she sings. The whole place, which looks to be filled with over a thousand people, has the appearance of being completely absorbed in worship through the song. You can easily see Kari’s passion as she sings—she absolutely pours her soul into the music. 

When Kari and her band finished their performance, many in the audience, moved by the worship session, shouted and clapped. 

Those who wish to worship with Kari can on her Grace & Glory Tour. She is currently touring and will be singing in cities across the U.S. until the end of October. 

“Worthy art thou, our Lord and our God, to receive the glory and the honour and the power: for thou didst create all things, and because of thy will they were, and were created.” Revelation 4:11
