Oh Praise Him - David Crowder Band

I'm looking for a topic to write on this blog today and I stumbled on a song in Youtube entitled "O Praise Him" by The David Crowder Band .  I first heard about this band back in New Zealand when they performed at the annual Parachute Music Festival usually held in Mystery Creek , Hamilton, New Zealand. If you love the new breed of christian songs, you will surely like this band from Waco, Texas . This band began when David Crowder , from Texarkana, Texas, found out that almost half of the students of Baylor University, a christian university were not attending church. He and Chris Seay started University Baptist Church (Waco, Texas) in 1995 while he was still a student. Crowder led worship there and continued to do so throughout the year. The church's congregation grew, as did the band's lineup. The chorus goes "O Praise Him! He is holy!" Wow, a huge reminder and that's what I needed to hear today. There are time in our lives that we str

The Message of Easter : Hosanna! by Paul Baloche

"Hosanna" (Greek transcription: ὡσαννά, hōsanna) is the cry of praise or adoration shouted in recognition of the Messiahship of Jesus on his entry into Jerusalem, Hosanna! Blessed is the one who comes in the name of the Lord! It is used in the same way in Christian praise. It is a cry for salvation; while at the same time is a declaration of praise.(1) As we celebrate the greatest holiday here on Earth, Easter or the Resurrection Dayof our Lord, Jesus Christ, let us be reminded of His promise. Jesus said: "I am the resurrection and the life. He who believes in me will live, even though he dies; and whoever lives and believes in me will never die." John 11:25-26. (NIV) Video by bauckman , youtube The Story of Easter is found in Matthew 28:1-10. "After the Sabbath, at dawn on the first day of the week, Mary Magdalene and the other Mary went to look at the tomb. There was a violent earthquake, for an angel of the Lord came down from heaven and, going to the

Hillsong - At The Cross (Video & Lyrics)

Easter is fast approaching and to celebrate this wonderful event, I will be featuring praise and worship songs that highlights the significance of Easter in our lives. What is Easter? It is the celebration of Christ's Resurrection ("rise to life again") from the Dead after being crucified. ( 1 ) The New Testament teaches that the resurrection of Jesus, which Easter celebrates, is a foundation of the Christian faith. The resurrection established Jesus as the powerful Son of God and is cited as proof that God will judge the world in righteousness. God has given Christians "a new birth into a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead". Christians, through faith in the working of God are spiritually resurrected with Jesus so that they may walk in a new way of life.( 2 ) Celebrate Easter with this worship song At The Cross  by Hillsong Church, Sydney, Australia.

Alan Jackson - Turn Your Eyes Upon Jesus

Who is Jesus? Why do we look up to Him? Do you know Him? Here's is some thoughts about Jesus. " A man who was merely a man and said the sort of things Jesus said would not be a great moral teacher. He would either be a lunatic - on a level with the man who says he is a poached egg - or else he would be the Devil of Hell. You must make your choice. Either this man was, and is, the Son of God; or else a madman or something worse. You can shut Him up for a fool, you can spit at Him and kill him as a demon; or you can fall at His feet and call Him Lord and God. But let us not come with any patronizing nonsense about His being a great human teacher. He has not left that open to us. He did not intend to ." C.S. Lewis, British author (1898-1963) " I am an historian, I am not a believer, but I must confess as a historian that this penniless preacher from Nazareth is irrevocably the very center of history. Jesus Christ is easily the most dominant figure in all history .&qu

Through The Fire

What an inspiring song is this! The lyrics says: "Just remember when you're standing in the valley of decision And the adversary says give in Just hold on, our Lord will show up And he will take you through the fire again" In Hebrews 13:5-6, we are reminded with a great promise.  "Let your conduct be without covetousness; be content with such things as you have. For He Himself has said, “I will never leave you nor forsake you.” So we may boldly say: “ The LORD is my helper; I will not fear. What can man do to me?”   What could possibly be more comforting than God's promise here to never leave or abandon us? It's a promise that no person could make to another, but when God makes a pledge like this, we can be assured that He will keep it. Through The Fire The Crabb Family So many times I've questioned certain circumstances Things I could not understand Many times in trials, weakness blurs my vision Then my frustration gets so out of ha

Parachute Band - Glorified

This young and talented breed of christian artists are from my former Church, Life ,  in Auckland, New Zealand. They are the "next gen" of the original Parachute Band that birthed in 1996. One of their major events is the Annual Parachute Festival  usually held in Mystery Creek, Hamilton, New Zealand where they perform in the Mainstage leading thousands of crowd of mostly young generation  into the presence of God with their locally written worship music. This worship song "Glorified" is simply one of their outstanding compositions. I really love this song because of  its great message of giving glory to Jesus Christ who done everything for us to have peace with our Almighty Father in heaven. Glorified Parachute Band Lord I come into your Holy place. Stand in awe, of your cleansing grace. Who am I, that you would care for me? I glorified the one who died for me. Chorus: Glorify, glorify Let your name be lifted up and glorified Let the earth tremb

In Christ Alone

In Christ alone my hope is found, He is my light, my strength, my song; this Cornerstone, this solid Ground, firm through the fiercest drought and storm. What heights of love, what depths of peace, when fears are stilled, when strivings cease! My Comforter, my All in All, here in the love of Christ I stand. In Christ alone! who took on flesh Fulness of God in helpless babe! This gift of love and righteousness Scorned by the ones he came to save: Till on that cross as Jesus died, The wrath of God was satisfied - For every sin on Him was laid; Here in the death of Christ I live. There in the ground His body lay Light of the world by darkness slain: Then bursting forth in glorious Day Up from the grave he rose again! And as He stands in victory Sin's curse has lost its grip on me, For I am His and He is mine - Bought with the precious blood of Christ. No guilt in life, no fear in death, This is the power of Christ in me; From life's first cry to final breath

Hillsong : Mighty To Save

The LORD your God is with you, He is mighty to save. He will take great delight in you, He will quiet you with his love, He will rejoice over you with singing." (Zephaniah 3:16-18) The story of a tax collector named Zacchaeus illustrates this song by Hillsong entitled  Mighty to Save. Jesus saves every man who is a sinner and is willing to turn away from his sins and follow Him. All of us come short to the standards of God. That is why we need the Saviour, Jesus Christ. Read Zacchaeus story in Luke Chapter 19, first ten verses: "Then Jesus entered and passed through Jericho. Now behold, there was a man named Zacchaeus who was a chief tax collector, and he was rich. And he sought to see who Jesus was, but could not because of the crowd, for he was of short stature. So he ran ahead and climbed up into a sycamore tree to see Him, for He was going to pass that way.  And when Jesus came to the place, He looked up and saw him, and said to him, “Zacchaeus, make haste and come down

Hillsong - Hosanna

Be blessed by this worship song by Hillsong entitled "Hosanna" with Brooke Frazer as the worship leader.   "Hosanna" (Greek transcription: ὡσαννά, hōsanna) is the cry of praise or adoration shouted in recognition of the Messiahship of Jesus on his entry into Jerusalem, Hosanna! Blessed is the one who comes in the name of the Lord!( Matthew 21:9) It is used in the same way in Christian praise. Overall, it seems that "Hosanna" is a cry for salvation; while at the same time is a declaration of praise. Therefore, it may be derived that this plea for help is out of an agreeably positive connotation. The old interpretation "Save, now!" which may be a popular etymology, is based on Psalm 118:25 (Hebrew הוֹשִׁיעָה נָּא hOshEeah-nna) (Possibly "Savior"). (Source: Wikepedia)

Chris Tomlin - You Are My King (Amazing Love)

How will you describe God's love? What's God's love all about? Are we deserving of God's love? God is love . His love is with no strings attached. An unconditional love. He takes you and me just as we are. He offers not only forgiveness of our past mistakes but more importantly He gives us a hope,  a future, and life eternal. But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us (Romans 5:8) Chris Tomlin in this song, "You Are My King (Amazing Love)" describes God's love as amazing - a love that affects with great wonder! And I tell you, Jesus Christ is the Key to unlock God's love! Be blessed. You Are My King (Amazing Love) By Chris Tomlin I’m forgiven because You were forsaken, I’m accepted, You were condemned. I am alive and well, Your spirit is within me, Because You died and rose again. (Repeat x2) (Chorus) Amazing love, How can it be That You, my King, should die for me? Amazin

What is Heaven Like?

Watch video of Dailey and Vincent Song entitled "On the Other Side." Their song tell a story about heaven. If you are a christian, heaven is the place to be! While their Dailey & Vincent describe what's on the other side, I believe that the best reason to be in heaven is to be with Jesus Christ. Heaven is where Jesus Christ is! How great would it be to dine, talk, and sing with your very own Lord and Saviour! Jesus promised: “Let not your heart be troubled; you believe in God, believe also in Me. 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. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and receive you to Myself; that where I am, there you may be also. And where I go you know, and the way you know.” How can we know the way? Jesus said: “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me. (John 14:1-6) Love the song? Buy album at Amazon Dailey & V

Hillsong : Worthy Is The Lamb

Darlene Zchech's rendition of Worthy is Lamb as she led the worship during the Hillsong 2004 Conference. Scripture Reading Worthy Is the Lamb (Revelation 5:8-14) Now when He had taken the scroll, the four living creatures and the twenty-four elders fell down before the Lamb, each having a harp, and golden bowls full of incense, which are the prayers of the saints. And they sang a new song, saying: “ You are worthy to take the scroll, And to open its seals; For You were slain, And have redeemed us to God by Your blood Out of every tribe and tongue and people and nation, And have made us kings and priests to our God; And we shall reign on the earth.” Then I looked, and I heard the voice of many angels around the throne, the living creatures, and the elders; and the number of them was ten thousand times ten thousand, and thousands of thousands, 12 saying with a loud voice: “ Worthy is the Lamb who was slain To receive power and riches and wisdom, And strength and hono
