Christian singer-songwriter Amanda Nolan delivers a powerful and intimate acoustic performance of her breakout single “Can’t Keep A Secret” exclusively for GodTube Music.

With raw emotion and a message rooted in faith, Amanda’s soulful voice brings this fan-favorite to life in a stripped-down setting that highlights the heart behind the song. It’s a reminder of the hope we’ve found in Jesus and why it’s something we can’t keep to ourselves.

Beloved worship songs get a stunning bluegrass makeover in this creative cover by the Hudson Harmony Band. All of the sounds blend together so seamlessly. Play the video to hear it. 

As the band appears over various beautiful landscapes in northern Arizona, they sing snippets from “I’ll Fly Away,” “I Can’t Feel at Home Any More,” and other Gospel hymns. The bluegrass worship cover sounds almost a little sped-up, but it may actually just be the fast pace of their fingers on their instruments—they are a very skilled group.

Along with the guitar, members also play the banjo, mandolin, and fiddle. Bluegrass worship covers are wonderful to hear. It’s always nice to hear a song you’ve heard many times reimagined in a different way. 

Some of the lyrics from the medley, which are from “I Can’t Feel At Home An More,” are:

This world is not my home, I'm just a passing through
My treasures are laid up somewhere beyond the blue;
The angels beckon me from heaven's open door,
And I can't feel at home in this world anymore.

The hymn first appeared in 1919 in “Joyful Meeting in Glory Song Book No. 1,”  but the author is unknown. It’s a shame because it’s such a thoughtfully and cleverly written song. 

The first person to record the song was a blues singer named Sam Jones of Cincinnati, who recorded under the stage name Stovepipe No. 1. Since then, a number of artists have recorded and covered it, including the Arizona-based Hudson Harmony bluegrass band. 

It sounds just as good–if not better–when sung in this bluegrass style. Hopefully, the Hudson Harmony Band has got more bluegrass worship covers planned for the future, too!

“For we know that if the earthly house of our tabernacle be dissolved, we have a building from God, a house not made with hands, eternal, in the heavens.” 2 Corinthians 5:1

This couple’s stripped-down version of “The Old Rugged Cross” will lift your spirit today. You can’t go wrong with the harmonica, guitar, and birds chirping. Play the video to remind us of the hope we have in Jesus. 

This couple's singing of "The Old Rugged Cross" is bringing glory to God through their cover of this sacred hymn. Some of the song’s lyrics are: 

On a hill far away stood an old rugged cross,
the emblem of suffering and shame;
and I love that old cross where the dearest and best
for a world of lost sinners was slain.

The couple’s quaint porch setting makes the video feel very relaxed and laid back. It’s like you’ve just stepped over to your neighbors in the suburbs or country for a chat or Bible study. It’s very inviting, and it makes you just want to sing along. It’s refreshing to see this couple singing "The Old Rugged Cross.”

The Old Rugged Cross Was Written in 1913

The old hymn was written in 1913 by storied songwriter George Bennard. George was a coal miner turned preacher who worked with the Salvation Army. He got the inspiration for this hymn while reflecting on Christ’s crucifixion. The words came to his head: “I’ll cherish that old rugged cross.”

“I really didn’t write it. I was merely the instrument God used,” George said. 

The cross is a symbol we all know well. We should remember it with solidarity, as it is the instrument of our Savior’s death. More than a symbol of mourning, it’s a symbol of sacrifice and love. Because Jesus saved us from all of our sins through his death. We will for eternity be grateful to that old rugged cross. 

“Who his own self bare our sins in his body upon the tree, that we, having died unto sins, might live unto righteousness; by whose stripes ye were healed.” 1 Peter 2:24

We sit down with rising Christian artist Mary-Clair to talk about her powerful song There’s A God and the heart behind its simple yet profound message: God sees you, knows you, and loves you.

In this conversation, Mary-Clair opens up about writing music in the middle of real-life struggles, how her faith has grown through difficult seasons, and why this song became her personal “battle cry.” She also shares what it’s been like to see her story connected to I Can Only Imagine 2, and how that experience has impacted her journey.

Plus, we talk about her debut album Enough, what’s next in 2026, and the exciting new music she’s already working on.

CeCe Winans and Tommee Proffit turned in a chilling performance of “Jesus Paid It All.” This rendition of the beloved hymn by the two incredibly talented and gifted performers is one that you’ll find yourself returning to again and again. Watch the short but awe-inspiring clip to listen to CeCe and Tommee perform “Jesus Paid It All,” a tune that is near and dear to the hearts of many.

Where would you and I be if not for the love and forgiveness of Jesus Christ? That’s a frightening thought, isn’t it? There’s no doubt that we’d still be living in sin and shame and going about our days without any hope or chance at a future. That’d be a miserable existence, that’s for sure.

Additionally, and most frightening of all, we’d be staring down an eternity where we’d be entirely and forever separated from Him. But because of His love and sacrifice, that does not have to be our future. In Christ, hope, love, mercy and forgiveness are found. He willingly paid it all for us, saving us when we could not save ourselves.

In a clip posted on YouTube, CeCe and Tommee perform the hymn “Jesus Paid It All.” Of course, this is a tune that is familiar to anyone who has been in church for any amount of time. But that familiarity does not lessen the power of the lyrics. Those words and the song’s message are as true and as relevant today as when they were first written.

“Jesus paid it all
All to Him I owe
Sin had left a crimson stain
He washed it white as snow”

It is only through the blood of Jesus Christ, which he shed upon the cross for you and me, that any of us can be forgiven of our sins and made new. He paid the price. He paid it all, and all we have to do is accept that gift of forgiveness.

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

The hymn “Are You Washed in the Blood” has received a fantastic bluegrass cover. This rendition of the old church hymn, near and dear to the hearts of many, is one that you’ll find yourself returning to repeatedly. Watch the short but delightful clip to hear their sweet performance of the hymn “Are You Washed in the Blood.”

Hymns are undefeated when it comes to church music, and that will forever be the case. That may not be a statement likely to garner much agreement, especially given how popular contemporary Christian music has become. It’s reached the point when even many churches have turned away from and shunned hymns, which is, in my opinion, extremely disappointing.

However, there is simply no arguing when it comes to hymns and contemporary Christian tunes. Hymns might be old, hundreds of years old in some instances, but that's no reason to forget about them. They are so beautifully written, powerfully expressing Christ’s love, forgiveness, mercy and faithfulness. On the other hand, if you’ve heard one modern contemporary Christian song, you’ve heard them all. Honestly, they sound very similar to many of the songs on most pop radio stations.

In a clip posted on YouTube, a bluegrass group, Backwoods Bluegrass, performed one of those familiar but incredibly underutilized hymns: “Are You Washed in the Blood.”

Their performance is simple: the musicians do nothing more than play the notes and sing the lyrics as intended, and it’s fantastic. Sometimes that’s all you need, and that is most certainly the case here. Their talent and the song’s lyrics shine through, and honestly, what more do you need?

“Have you been to Jesus for the cleansing power?
Are you washed in the blood of the Lamb?
Are you fully trusting in His grace this hour?
Are you washed in the blood of the Lamb?

It’s a most enjoyable performance, and it deserves to be heard, but perhaps a handful of times.
