One man turned in a beautiful piano instrumental performance of "Because He Lives." His moving rendition of the hymn that is near and dear to the hearts of many will likely bring a tear or two to your eye. Watch the short but powerful clip to listen to and watch Matthew Holt perform "Because He Lives."

Hymns are powerful and severely underutilized pieces of music. Yes, they aren't songs typically heard on the radio. But sadly, that is also what happens in many churches, the one place where you would most expect to hear them. Far too many houses of worship have entirely abandoned hymns.

Many churches' praise and worship portion of their Sunday morning services consists primarily of contemporary Christian music instead of hymns. That is incredibly unfortunate because, as great as some contemporary Christian songs are, they will never top or even come close to matching those beloved, classic hymns.

In a clip posted on YouTube, a pianist plays "Because He Lives," which is absolutely beautiful and will likely send chills down your back. While none of those familiar lyrics are sung in the clip, that does not take away from the stunning instrumental performance in the slightest. Likely, as he plays, you can hear the lyrics running through your mind.

"Because He lives, all fear is gone
Because I know He holds the future
And life is worth the living
Just because He lives"

If those words don't move you or cause you to react emotionally, I'm not sure anything will. Those words remind us that whatever we are going through or facing, Christ is still in control and on the throne. We don't have to fear or worry about what tomorrow may bring and can experience that peace that surpasses all understanding because He lives.

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."

‘I Speak Jesus’ is covered beautifully by Genavieve Linkowski in a new YouTube video by the Anthem Worship collective. Genevieve makes her mark on the powerful song with elegance and clarity. Watch the clip to see her perform. 

Genevieve beautifully proclaims Jesus’ name in her cover of Charity Gayle’s ‘I Speak Jesus.’ Her voice is so gentle and clear as she sings about wanting to share Jesus’ peace with others. 

‘I Speak Jesus’ is about proclaiming Jesus as Lord over family, situations, and anxiety. It’s about surrendering to God and trusting him. It’s a reminder that he is with us and of who he is. He breaks chains and defeats the enemy. It is also an outreach song. It has a special way of sharing Jesus with others. It’s saying, “Look at his goodness; look what Jesus can do.”
Some of the stirring lyrics are:

I just wanna speak the name of Jesus
Over every heart and every mind
'Cause I know there is peace within Your presence
I speak Jesus

Genavieve sounds wonderful as she sings the meaningful track. It sounds as if she’s singing a heartfelt prayer over all of her listeners. With smooth, captivating vocals, she has the perfect kind of voice for this song. She would make an excellent leader or independent artist.

This cover is a great reminder that we should be using Jesus name, which holds so much power and grace. And may we all be lights for Jesus who point others toward Him. I hope this music encouraged your soul and brought peace to your spirit today—it certainly did for mine!

“Even so let your light be shining before men, so that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father in heaven.” Matthew 5:16

The events of John chapter 21 and Jesus' journey to make a Way for us.

Listen to UPPERROOM's "The Church."

Listen to Tasha Cobbs Leonard's "The Hand That Keeps Holding Me."

Listen to Anne Wilson's "Devil Is Too."

Listen to Anne Wilson's "Twenty Three."

Anne Wilson has released the lyric video for her latest song, “’Til the Road Runs Out.” The popular and incredibly talented Christian country music artist has another hit on her hands with this catchy and upbeat tune. Watch the short clip to listen to and watch Anne’s official lyric video for “’ Til the Road Runs Out.”

All of us have a limited amount of time on this Earth. No one is promised tomorrow, as things can change in the blink of an eye. It’s unlikely that anyone alive right now will still be here 100 years from now. Sure, some people will beat those odds and have a longer-than-average lifespan, but likely not by much.

So, knowing that time is a limited and precious commodity, something that can never be recovered, what are you doing with the time you’ve been given? Are you just going through the motions, hoping to get through another day, or are you making your time count? If they are being honest, most people would probably say they aren’t making the most of their time.

Anne’s latest song is a beautiful reminder of how life can change instantly. The lyrics point out that we are not promised tomorrow. So, with the time that she has been blessed with, Anne is determined to make the most of it. She sings about making her life matter, making what she does count and being intentional with her time on Earth.

“Gonna make it matter, gonna make it count
Gonna run this road ‘til the road runs out
From the first sun up to the last sun down
Gonna run this road ‘till the road runs out”

We’d all be better off remembering this and living in such a way, knowing we are not promised tomorrow.

Proverbs 27:1 “Do not make a noise about tomorrow, for you are not certain what a day’s outcome may be.”

Alt/indie rock band Eauclaire performs their heartfelt new single 'You Me the Kids' live at the GodTube Music Studio in Nashville. Fresh off their signing with NCS Collective, the trio reflects on life as husbands and fathers in this honest and melodic anthem about the chaos and beauty of family.

Life in 3D delivers a stunning rendition of ‘The Prayer.’ I don’t know if you’ve been watching them as long as I have. When they sang in their kitchen, raw voices rose like praise between pots and pans, the holy kind of ordinary that made you stop mid-scroll and whisper; this is something special.

I’ve watched Daylon and Daura grow up with their brother Devon and have seen glimpses of God-given talent stretch its legs in every new video. From high school halls to college dorms, their voices matured like seasons—faithful, steady, and anointed.

But this—this was different.

For the first time, I watched them on an actual stage. Daylon and Daura stood at Mountainview, hearts wide open and voices soaring. Daura, radiant in a midnight-blue sparkly dress that shimmered like stars caught in velvet, and Daylon, sharp in a crisp suit, steady and strong.

Together, they sang ‘The Prayer,’ and I don’t think I breathed the whole time. It wasn’t just music—it was ministry. It was heaven brushing earth. The kind of moment that makes you want to weep for the beauty of it all.

And in that moment, I was reminded again—God sees. He sees the seeds He plants in us from the very beginning. He waters them with grace, nurtures them through the years, and at just the right time, He lets them bloom to bless the world.

Your gifts? They’re not an accident. Your children’s talents? Not random. The way you write, bake, teach, sing, comfort, lead, serve—it’s all handcrafted by a God who knows exactly what He’s doing.

We don’t need to strive to make it big. We just need to be faithful in the small. And when the time is right, He will place you where your voice—your life—can echo His glory.

“A man’s gift makes room for him and brings him before the great.” Proverbs 18:16

Some days feel too long and too heavy. The sink stays full, your heart stays tired, and it seems like no one sees how hard you're trying to hold it all together. You whisper prayers between loads of laundry and ask God if He’s still near, still listening. If you’re in this boat, you will love Colton Dixon’s new release of ‘The Love I Have For You’ lyric video.

When the song plays over the speakers, something sacred hushes the chaos inside. The lyrics wrap around your heart like a gentle hand saying, He sees. He knows. He’s already there.

Because that’s the thing about our God—He’s always one step ahead of your heartbreak. Before the tears ever fall, He’s already caught them. Before the storm ever rolls in, He’s already prepared the shelter. He’s already written hope into the middle of your hardest moment.

"The love I have for you is never going anywhere." That’s not just a lyric—it’s gospel truth stitched into every page of Scripture and whispered in every quiet corner of our lives. It’s the voice of our Savior who walked the dust and wept beside us. It’s the God who knows your name and all the hidden aches behind it.

He’s not surprised by what you’re walking through today. He isn’t scrambling to catch up. He’s already in your tomorrow. He's steady when the ground shifts. The peace when the world shouts. The love that stays when everything else walks away.

So, breathe deep, my friend. Let the lyrics remind you that you're not alone. You are wildly loved by a God who doesn’t give up, back down, or forget. He carries you, sings over you, and declares—again and again—“The love I have for you will not fail.”

“Before they call I will answer; while they are still speaking I will hear.” Isaiah 65:24

Check out this precious rendition of the song ‘Hallelujah’ from one talented 4-year-old boy. The piano player in the video is Nicholas Protsenko, and he is bringing joy and inspiration to the streets with his heartfelt performance of this beloved song. What a talented child whose music moves everyone around him!

‘I've heard there was a secret chord that David played, and it pleased the Lord
But you don't really care for music, do you?
Well it goes like this, the fourth, the fifth, the minor fall, the major lift
The baffled king composing Hallelujah’

This sweet child has a voice full of sincerity and innocence. “Hi everyone! My name is Nicholas Protsenko. I’m 4 years old. I’m going to play and sing for you,” he says at the start of the video. As he continues on, you can see how much feeling this little one puts into his performance. What a heartwarming sight!

“I'm so proud of you, Nicholas!” writes Karolina Protsenko on YouTube, the older sister of Nicholas. “Your voice and heart shine so bright. You sang with so much emotion. I had goosebumps! Keep singing and playing, little angel.”

Nicholas is part of the talented Protsenko family, where everyone deeply loves music and one another. Karolina, the oldest of her siblings, is a talented young musician who plays violin, sings, and loves reading and baking. Leo, Nicholas's older brother, is known to pick up any instrument and sing along whenever he hears the music. He’s also very good at playing piano. Nicholas, the youngest of the bunch, also plays piano and uses his voice to add music to the family.

This is the kind of musical performance that can really lift your spirits! We hope that you enjoyed listening to Nicholas Protsenko's heartwarming rendition of ‘Hallelujah’ today.

The Detty Sisters shone in their joyful live performance of “I’ll Fly Away.” The musically gifted singers gave a fantastic rendition of the beloved song that is near and dear to the hearts of many. Watch the short but delightful clip of the young women performing “I’ll Fly Away.”

Earth is not our permanent home. While no one is promised tomorrow, most people, given their diet, genetics and activity level, will likely spend 70 to 80 years on this planet. In the grand scheme of things, that’s not much time at all. Our time on Earth is nothing more than a pit stop along the way to eternity.

Yes, death is something that we’ll all experience and encounter at one time or another. And no one can be entirely sure what happens after taking your last breath on Earth. However, while many unknowns surround dying, it does not have to be something we fear.  In fact, for those who know where they are headed after their time on Earth is over, death can be something to be embraced.

In a clip posted on YouTube, The Detty Sisters performed a joyful, upbeat tune about death, leaving this Earth behind and looking forward to what lies ahead in the next life. Of course, the song they sang was “I’ll Fly Away.”

The talented young ladies beautifully sing the song, which many are more than familiar with and know. But that familiarity does not dampen or lessen the song’s message in the slightest. Those who are saved and know Jesus Christ as their personal Lord and Savior do not have to fear death. They can look forward to being on “God’s celestial shore,” as the lyrics mention.

Yes, death is a scary thought, given the number of unknowns surrounding it. But what do we have to fear? We have a Savior who conquered sin, death and the grave.
