I wrote this Song about the coming Rapture, and how we are so close to God taking us home.

Join Godtube Music in Nashville for a powerful conversation with Erskin Anavitarte about his brand-new single “Lion”, the upcoming Holy Roar Tour, and more. Erskin shares the heart behind his energetic take on the worship anthem, how he blends rap, rock, and singer-songwriter styles into his music, and why he believes Christian creativity should be bold and boundary-breaking.

Tauren Wells has released the official lyric video for "Fight Like Heaven," a bold anthem and call for standing firm in faith. The popular and incredibly talented Christian musician has yet another hit on his hands with this powerful and uplifting tune. Watch the short clip to listen to and watch the official Tauren Wells' "Fight Like Heaven” lyric video.

The world is not always a kind, gentle and welcoming place. Not everything in life will make you feel all warm and fuzzy inside. In fact, often, it's quite the opposite. Of course, the evidence for this is seen everywhere we look, from every television news broadcast to popular social media platforms to our governmental leaders, many of whom seem to delight in making others they deem as opponents as miserable as possible.

But those are just the battles we can see with our own eyes. The Bible says there is much more warring and strife going on behind the scenes, a much more serious and ongoing spiritual battle. If, as a Christian, you've not experienced odd, unexplained forces coming up against you, get ready, because it will happen sooner or later.

It's this spiritual warfare that Tauren sings about in "Fight Like Heaven." If the battle, as Tauren sings, was just a struggle between flesh and blood and the forces of this Earth, we could use weapons, firearms and other battle-tested materials to help carry us to victory, but that is not the case. The evil one is constantly lurking, warring against Christians, trying to get them to stumble and fall and, for that, we are called to equip ourselves with the whole armor of God.

"When I pray, Hell is shaken (oh)
I don't lose ground, I take it (oh)
Jesus' name is a weapon
So, I'll fight like Heaven"

Ephesians 6:12 "For our fight is not against flesh and blood, but against authorities and powers, against the world rulers of this dark night, against the spirits of evil in the heavens."

Check out this unique video. It combines reality and cartoon artwork within the music video. Watch Pat Barrett's official video for ‘Hard Part of a Dream.’

As Pat sits in a black and white video at the piano, we see colors of animation art appearing all around him as he sings. Whatever he is singing about, the artwork resembles. It is extremely entertaining and intriguing. As he talks about taking a risk, you will see a cartoon character walking on a line like a tightrope, worried about failing, and then working it out. 

This song inspires us to dream, but the reality is that seeing a dream become a reality is hard. He talks about how you cannot say that you are brave if you are never afraid. The second half of the chorus says:

You hold it more dearly because of the pain
You can't say you're bravе if you're never afraid
With no guarantees
That's thе hard part of a dream

Towards the end of the song, there is a waterfall coming from the pianos and flooding around him. One of the most moving moments of this video is the very end, when it says different action steps that everyone takes, such as “write the book, take the job, ask for forgiveness, try again, take a risk.” It leads you to ponder what you are dreaming about right now and how you can take steps towards it. 

Pray and be in the heart of building the dream with God. What are you dreaming about? As you reflect on these lyrics, prayerfully ponder what the Lord is leading you to do in your life right now, with His help, nothing is impossible. Dream big, but ultimately surrender it to Him, and He will guide you.

“Much dreaming and many words are meaningless. Therefore fear God.” Ecclesiastes 5:7

Rising Christian singer-songwriter Estella Kirk sits down with Brandon Woolum to talk about her brand-new EP, 'Growing Pains,' out now. In this candid conversation, Estella shares her journey from leading worship in her small Oklahoma hometown to moving to Nashville at 18 to pursue music full-time. She opens up about the heart behind her songs, including the vulnerable title track 'Growing Pains,' the deeply relatable 'Same Jesus, Different Pew,' and the creative storytelling of 'Coffee.' Estella reflects on navigating life transitions, finding her voice as a songwriter, and staying grounded in her faith through journaling and daily time in Scripture. She also gives a glimpse of what’s next—new singles, possible tour dates, and continuing to write music that resonates with people walking through change while trusting God along the way.

This family’s powerful “What a Mighty God We Serve” will lift your spirit. The performance is full of heartfelt passion and encouragement. Play the video to hear the family’s wonderful harmony. 

The Kuykendall family sounds incredible together as they sing from their hymnals. The hymn, “What A Mighty God We Serve,” is not very common, so it is very refreshing to hear. The family members shown in the video consist of seven brothers and their father. The oldest brother skillfully plays piano as the rest of the family sings along to the meaningful lyrics.

“Our family grew up singing this hymn! We hope you are encouraged by the truths of this song,” the family said.

Some of the lyrics of “What a Mighty God We Serve Are:” 

What a mighty God we serve!
What a mighty God we serve!
Reigning now above, on His throne of love,
What a mighty God we serve!

As the family sings the lyrics with energy and enthusiasm, it’s clear that they experience much joy and faith and enjoy sharing that through their music. Due to their ages, the range of their voices is varied, giving the song a wonderful effect as they harmonize. The family’s smiles and expressions show how meaningful this hymn is to them. It’s not just a performance. It’s a heartfelt offering of worship to our father in heaven, and he is surely honored by this family’s praise. 

This beautiful song is a wonderful reminder that we serve a loving God. We don’t fight our battles alone. 

“For to us a child is born, to us a son is given: and the government shall be on his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counselor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.” Isaiah 9:6

Flyleaf singer Lacey Sturm pauses her set at Louder Than Life to share a heartfelt message about Jesus, reminding the crowd rock fans in Louisville, KY that each person is intentionally created, deeply loved, and never a mistake. The 2025 installment of the festival drew over 240,000 fans from all around the world.

The timeless hymn “What a Friend We Have in Jesus” has received a stunning rendition. This rendition of the beloved hymn, which is near and dear to the hearts of many, deserves to be listened to repeatedly. Watch this short but moving clip to hear this updated version of the old church hymn, “What a Friend We Have in Jesus.”

A 100 percent true and accurate message can never be said too often, right? That’s at least what I tell myself when it comes to old church hymns and contemporary Christian music. In my opinion, there is no contest between hymns and contemporary Christian music. The hymns win out every single time, and I say this knowing full well that the Christian contemporary tunes are winning handily.

Most people would rather listen to modern Christian songs and forget the hymns altogether. Even many churches have taken this route as well. They have abandoned the hymns, instead choosing to pack the praise and worship portion of their service with contemporary Christian tunes. Sure, they may sneak a hymn in there every so often, but 98 percent are modern Christian songs.

However, there are still some who love and prefer old hymns. In a clip posted on YouTube, a church’s praise and worship team performs “What a Friend We Have in Jesus.” But you’ve likely never heard the song played this way.  It’s more upbeat and even has a jazzy sound and feel. The iconic, memorable lyrics are all the same, but with just a decidedly different sound.

“What a friend we have in Jesus
All our sins and griefs to bear
What a privilege to carry
Everything to God in prayer”

This is an absolutely delightful version of a beloved hymn that is sure to please everyone. Those who enjoy the old hymn will appreciate it, and even those who prefer more modern Christian tunes will also find something to like, especially given the upbeat tempo.

Colossians 3:16 “Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord.”

Listen to this beautiful performance of the song ‘The Love of God’ from the group Hymns of Grace. The vocalists and musicians sound incredible together as they sing about the greatness of God’s love in simple yet powerful words. This hymn was written by Frederick M. Lehman in 1917, and it is still very loved to this day.

‘The love of God is greater far than tongue or pen can ever tell;
it goes beyond the highest star, and reaches to the lowest hell;
the guilty pair, bowed down with care, God gave His Son to win;
His erring child He reconciled, and pardoned from his sin.’

The group Hymns of Grace did a wonderful job with this performance of ‘The Love of God,’ and they even talked about the meaning behind the song in the caption of their video.

“With imagery that lifts our eyes from earth to eternity, it reminds us that even if the skies were parchment, the oceans ink, and every man a scribe, the love of God could never be fully written,” the group writes in the caption of the video. “His love is beyond measure, unchanging, and everlasting.”

This hymn highlights God's unchanging nature. When Frederick M. Lehman found himself in unfortunate circumstances, his faith never wavered, and he began to write a love song to the Lord. After composing two stanzas, he was at a loss for words and found a poem that would fit perfectly for his third stanza to finish his composition. 

The note below that poem read: “These words were found written on a cell wall in a prison some 200 years ago. It is not known why the prisoner was incarcerated; neither is it known if the words were original or if he had heard them somewhere and had decided to put them in a place where he could be reminded of the greatness of God’s love - whatever the circumstances, he wrote them on the wall of his prison cell. In due time, he died and the men who had the job of repainting his cell were impressed by the words. Before their paint brushes had obliterated them, one of the men jotted them down and thus they were preserved.” 

Historians later found that the words came from a Hebrew poem written around the year 1,000 as a prelude to The Ten Commandments – a reminder that all of Scripture tells us the story of God’s love.

We hope that you enjoyed listening to this performance of ‘The Love of God’ today!

Watch this lyric video of the beloved hymn ‘Come Thou Fount of Every Blessing.’ This timeless hymn was composed by Robert Robinson in 1757. The poetic lyrics reflect the desire to be guided and grateful for God’s unending grace. This beautiful song has been a favorite for centuries and continues to be sung today in churches and worship gatherings.

‘Come, Thou Fount of ev’ry blessing, tune my heart to sing Thy grace;
Streams of mercy, never ceasing, call for songs of loudest praise.
Teach me some melodious sonnet, sung by flaming tongues above;
Praise the mount! I’m fixed upon it, mount of Thy redeeming love.’

This rendition of ‘Come Thou Fount of Every Blessing’ was produced by Light & Harmony — a global Christian music channel dedicated to sharing songs of faith, hope, and love. This particular cover was a Celtic-inspired arrangement, and according to the caption of their lyric video, Light & Harmony blended “acoustic instruments, gentle piano, and soft strings to create a serene and uplifting atmosphere. The song begins with reflective tones and gradually swells into a warm, inspiring celebration of God’s love and mercy.”

When it comes to the classic hymn ‘Come Thou Fount Of Every Blessing’, the song was written by Robert Robinson. After running with a bad crowd when he was a teen, he became a Christian a few years later after stumbling upon evangelist George Whitefield preaching in London on May 24, 1752. Then Robert began preaching in Methodist and Baptist churches, and when he was only 22 years old, he penned the hymn ‘Come Thou Fount of Every Blessing’ for his sermon on Pentecost Sunday.

We hope that you enjoyed this stunning lyric video of ‘Come Thou Fount of Every Blessing’ today! May the song bring you some encouragement and uplift you in some way.
