Two immensely talented musicians, Zach Williams and Dolly Parton, joined forces for a stirring duet performance of “Lookin’ for You.”

People are constantly looking and searching for connection and meaning in their lives. Individuals will go to great lengths to find something that makes them feel whole, connected and not so alone.

Everyone wants to know they are not alone and going through this life by themselves. Some people will fill this need for connection and love with work, romantic relationships and when nothing else seems to work, even with drugs and alcohol. 

Zach and Dolly, in their song “Lookin’ for You,” sing about this desire everyone has to feel needed and loved, that they matter simply because they are human beings. The two country musicians sing how they tried to fill this desire, this hole with things and achievements, but came up short and felt empty every time.

However, it wasn’t until they had reached their lowest point and were down on their knees crying out to God that they realized He was what they were looking for the whole time. 

“And I cried out to Heaven

I could finally see

Jesus, Jesus, I know it’s true

All of my life, I was lookin’ for You”

It’s a beautifully written and performed tune that perfectly captures the brokenness of people and where individuals will search to find something to make them whole. But as people often do, they will look for answers in all the wrong places. Too many people have to experience too much hurt before considering turning to the one true, trustworthy source of comfort, healing and peace. 

The world offers many temporary fixes to our problems and issues, but they all wear off and eventually cease to be. However, as Jesus told the lady at the well, “But whoever takes the water I give him will never be in need of drink again; for the water I give him will become in him a fountain of eternal life.”

This video is from Gaither Music TV, where the Goodman Revival sings, ‘I Don't Want To Get Adjusted,’ and it’s quite the energetic southern gospel performance. 

The song is very upbeat and catchy, with the Goodman Revival using their vocal talents and character to put on a performance. It would be very easy to learn the lyrics of this song after just listening to it a handful of times. 

The lyrics begin with:

“In this world, we have our troubles

Sometimes lonesome, sometimes blue

But the hope of life eternal

Makes all old hopes brand-new”

We can all relate to these powerful words about how we each have our troubles, but we also have the hope of eternal life with Jesus. The song is about not wanting to adjust to this world because we know that a better one is coming someday. 

There are so many times in this life when we can become overwhelmed with our struggles or get too involved in what is going wrong in our world. However, this song is a good reminder that we will be in a different place one day. 

The Goodman Revival is made up of three members. Tanya Goodman Sykes, her husband, Michael Sykes, an acclaimed producer, and their friend Johnny Minick, a gospel music veteran. Johnny used to perform with Howard and Vestal Goodman in years past. 

Many in the comments enjoy this performance. One commenter said, “The fact this has millions of views and that so many people want to fall asleep listening to God's word is absolutely heart warming and soul refilling. God bless each and everyone of you, in Jesus name, Amen” and another commented, “Yes, we have home that's so much better.” 

“In my Father's house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you.” - John 14:2

The legendary Reba McEntire delivered an upbeat and energetic performance of a beloved and classic tune, “Swing Low, Sweet Chariot,” in a lyric video.

Everyone’s time on Earth is limited. It’s simply a momentary stop, with eternity awaiting all. As ironic as it may be, death is a part of life. It’s something that everyone will experience at one time or another. Sadly, most people’s lives have already been impacted by death, either by the passing of a friend or a family member. 

However, after that time on Earth has expired, everyone will find themselves spending eternity in one of two places. For those who follow Christ and adhere to His teachings and commands, death is not something to fear. Instead, passing from this world into eternity can almost be something to embrace.

In a clip posted on YouTube, the Queen of Country Music, Reba, performed “Swing Low, Sweet Chariot,” a tune that is a favorite of many. It’s about anticipating the moment when they leave this world and proceed to their eternal home. 

“Swing low, sweet chariot

Coming for to carry me home

Swing low, sweet chariot

Coming for to carry me home”

However, instead of performing the familiar song in a way people have heard hundreds of times before, Reba makes it her own. She increases the song’s tempo, making it an upbeat, fast-paced and joyous tune about making it heaven. 

It’s exactly the kind of move you would expect from such a seasoned and professional performer. Prior to her vocal performance, understanding how well-known the song is, she encourages the audience to join in with her. 

Also, for those watching who don’t already know the words to the song about making your way to heaven, the lyrics are shown on the bottom of the screen throughout the clip. 

Reba’s performance perfectly captures the joy and happiness that will be present in the moment when we finally make it to heaven!

Psalm 105:2 “Let your voice be sounding in songs and melody; let all your thoughts be of the wonder of his works.”

Psalm 105:2 “Let your voice be sounding in songs and melody; let all your thoughts be of the wonder of his works.”

I helped the daughter of a Congolese preacher. she took me to the nearest evangelic church, First in bits and pieces I received a melody that was not at all common to the songs I normally write, and suddenly completely, this song came to me in a creasy moment. and so I wrote it down in a creasy moment, later on I made a video in a creasy moment, later on I put it on the internet, in a creasy moment. Pl. Don't hold me responsible for the consequences.... I upload it here, because this feels like a save environment to share such a song. I'm not really able to handle much critisism... thanks for your kindness and understanding. The lyrics and music are not mine, they where given to me, I'm only here to share this. I don't feel like I own this song.

I once read a book where a lot of the people in a town decided to live their lives according to God's Word. I was so taken in by it that I decided to write this song. Yes to live a godly life style sure does make a big difference!

Jesus is loved all around the world. He gives us hope and so much more!

Moses leads the Israelites across the Red Sea leaving Pharaoh's Army in their watery graves.

Jesus is the hope for the lonely, and all those living in unfortunate circumstances. He has promised to love His people forever.

God is glorified forever. He has risen!

God's word is being passed on across the world saving many lost souls.

God's word is traveling across the world saving many lost souls!

Every time we think of Jesus he brings joy into our lives. He fills every day with his love and passion.

Jesus died on the cross for our sins so that we can have eternal life.

A wonderful Christian story with a happy ending!

The message is no matter what you go through in life God is there to help you. God will be there always to love His children.

From the upcoming album "Resurrection of the King" to be released March 1st, 2024.
