Chilling 'Give Thanks' Rendition Performed in 3 Languages

This chilling 'Give Thanks' rendition performed in 3 languages will lift your spirits today and remind you who is always there for you–God. It’s beautiful and inspiring. Watch the video to feel His presence.

The group of believers sings in 3 languages—English, Hebrew, and Arabic — and it sounds beautiful. It surely brings much honor to God when he sees his children from different parts of the world come together to sing him worship songs. 

The song that they chose to sing is Henry Smith Jr.’s “Give Thanks (with a Grateful Heart).” Some of the English lyrics are: 

Give thanks with a grateful heart,
Give thanks to the Holy one,
Give thanks because He's given,
Jesus Christ His Son.

It is a beautiful song about gratitude and having a humble heart. Of all of the worship songs in the world, this one is one of the most emotional and powerful. 

The Song Was Written By Henry Smith Jr. 

The song was written by Henry Smith Jr., who was born with a degenerative disease that made him blind. He was very discouraged after college when he couldn’t find a job, but found encouragement through a sermon his pastor gave. The pastor referenced how Jesus made himself poor to make others rich through him.

Smith said, “In 1978, in an apartment in Williamsburg, Virginia, I wrote Give Thanks. Shortly thereafter my wife, Cindy, and I sang the song at our church. We repeated it a number of times over a period of several weeks.”

Eight years later, a friend brought him a cassette with his song, listed as “author unknown.” Hosanna! Music had published it, and Don Moen sang it on his album. 

Henry said, “I called the company and told them I had written the song. Their response was, ‘Good! We have been trying to find you.’ Since then, more than 50 recording companies have produced ‘Give Thanks.’”

It’s wonderful how God used Henry’s struggles to inspire him to write this and encourage thousands who’ve heard it. 

"And whatever you do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God and the Father by him,” Colossians 3:17

He shares why this performance goes far beyond hitting big notes, focusing instead on delivering the message of grace, the resurrection, and the story of Jesus in a way that truly connects. Stanaj also breaks down the challenge of balancing power and intimacy, and why sometimes the quietest moments in a song are the hardest to get right.


Plus, he reflects on how this project ties into The Birth of a King, creating a full-circle story that feels more like a cinematic sequel than just another album.

Bay Turner Talks Taking on 'It Is Well' For Tommee Profitt's 'The Resurrection Of A King'

Bay Turner is stepping into one of the most recognizable hymns of all time and giving it a powerful new life.


On the red carpet at the premiere of The Resurrection of a King, Bay talks with Brandon Woolum about taking on “It Is Well (Because He Lives)” and the pressure of reimagining a song that has meant so much to so many people.


He shares what it was like working with Tommee Profitt, from being pushed vocally to finding peace in the process, and how focusing on worship over perfection changed everything. Bay also reflects on the unforgettable experience of recording with a full orchestra and how it brought him back to his roots as an opera singer.


Plus, he opens up about the message behind the song and why “It Is Well Because He Lives” continues to deepen in meaning in his own life.

Powerful Violin and Saxophone 'The Old Rugged Cross' Hymn Instrumental

This instrumental version of “The Old Rugged Cross,” performed on violin and saxophone, is powerful. This rendition of the beloved old church hymn is one you’ll likely find yourself returning to again and again. Watch the short but moving clip to listen to this beautiful performance of “The Old Rugged Cross,” a tune that is near and dear to the hearts of many.

Is there any other type of music more underutilized than church hymns? Typically, we only hear them during a church’s praise and worship service, and even then, it’s not guaranteed. Many churches have begun to pull away from those classic hymns, opting instead to fill their services with more modern and contemporary Christian music.

Contemporary Christian music is fine and is full of many extremely talented people producing some truly great music. However, for my money, and likely, many other people, nothing compares to those church hymns. How could you ever top “Great is Thy Faithfulness,” “Blessed Assurance,” “Victory in Jesus” and “Amazing Grace?” Of course, that answer is simple: you cannot. Nothing comes close to the wave of emotions that comes across listeners whenever they hear the opening verse of “Amazing Grace,” no matter how many times they’ve heard it.

A clip posted on YouTube features two incredibly talented musicians performing the hymn “The Old Rugged Cross.” But instead of uttering any of those iconic and familiar lyrics, it’s an instrumental version, and it’s fantastic.

“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”

With her playing the violin and him on the saxophone, their rendition is a beautiful, dazzling treat for the ears. You will not mind the fact that the hymn’s words are not being sung because you’ll probably be adding your own vocal track as you listen to the two of them play.

1 Corinthians 1:18 “For the word of the cross seems foolish to those who are on the way to destruction; but to us who are on the way to salvation, it is the power of God.”

GENTRI’s Take on 'The Lord’s Prayer' Is a Chilling Performance You Need to Hear

GENTRI’s take on “The Lord’s Prayer” is a chilling performance that you need to hear. More than likely, you’ll find yourself returning to this musical rendition of Christ’s demonstration of how and what to pray for again and again. Watch this short but powerful and moving musical performance of The Lord’s Prayer.

Communication is essential to, well, everyone and for everything. If we did not have the ability to talk to one another, to express thoughts, feelings and opinions, in some form or fashion, life would be very short, lonely and rather painful.  It is through communication that we can and do express our needs and wants.

Relationships are formed through consistent and constant communication. It does not matter if it’s your spouse, your children, your boss, your neighbor, or even your pet: when communication breaks down or ceases, so does that relationship. Jesus understood how important it is to communicate, how it forms, establishes and strengthens relationships. In the Bible, He provided an example of how to communicate with God, the Creator of the universe, properly.

In a clip posted on YouTube, GENTRI, an unbelievably talented group of vocalists, turned Christ’s example of how to communicate with God, The Lord’s Prayer, into a chilling song.

“Our Father, which art in heaven
Hallowed be Thy Name
Your kingdom come, Your will be done
On Earth, as it is in heaven”

The Lord’s Prayer, without a doubt, is a prayer that most are familiar with and likely can recite entirely from memory. But you likely have never heard Christ’s prayer performed like this. Typically, when people recite the prayer, they do so rapidly that it's easy to forget and overlook the power of this short but simple prayer – an example left for all of us to follow as we pray and communicate with God.

Matthew 6:6 “But when you make your prayer, go into your private room, and, shutting the door, say a prayer to your Father in secret, and your Father, who sees in secret, will give you your reward.”

Tommee Profitt Reimagines Classic Hymns for Cinematic Easter Experience | The Resurrection of a King

Tommee Profitt is bringing timeless hymns into a whole new era.


On the red carpet at the world premiere of The Resurrection of a King, Tommee sits down with Brandon Woolum to talk about reimagining some of the most powerful songs of faith, taking lyrics that have shaped generations and giving them a bold, cinematic sound for today.


From pushing artists outside their comfort zones to carefully matching each voice to the right song, Tommee shares the heart behind the project and why honoring the original message was just as important as reinventing the music. He also explains why this is not just an album, it is a full visual experience with orchestra, choir, and powerful performances for every track.


If you have ever connected to a hymn in a meaningful moment, this conversation gives you a whole new perspective on what those songs can become.



I can fly
