From the 2005 compilation album "Come, Let Us Adore Him". A beautiful Christmas song about the arrival of our Savior Jesus Christ. Written by Joy along with Ben Glover and Jason Ingram. Jesus, "a baby born to save, to save the souls of man."
Yeah, I know it's a little bit early for Christmas songs, but on the other hand maybe we should be celebrating the birth of our Savior year-round. This is Meredith Andrews singing "He Has Come For Us", arranged as a medley with "God Rest Ye Merry, Gentlemen". It's from a compilation EP called "He Has Come For Us"
From Phil Wickham's soon-to-be-released album "Response", a song that he co-wrote along with Tim Hughes. No need to explain it, the lyrics are pretty clear: "There is no one like our God" and "Lord of all the earth" and "we love to shout Your name."
From the album "Come Away", this is "Rooftops", sung passionately by Kim Walker of Jesus Culture from Bethel Church in Redding, CA. The song was written by Lindsey Sweat, Ben Williams, and Jonathan Berlin. Very majestic, very worshipful. Sort of an updated "Shout To The Lord" song. The song is about a desire to serve our Lord Jesus Christ: "Here I am, I am Yours!"
From Tenth Avenue North's album "The Light Meets The Dark", this is a song of hope and comfort about the grace and mercy and power of our God. We may try and try to save ourselves, or we may try and try to save someone else, but in the end we have to realize that there is only One who is mighty to save, and that's the Heavenly Father. He is the only one strong enough to save us, and if we cry out His name He will break open the skies and make it happen.
The song was written by Mike Donehey (of Tenth Avenue North), Jason Ingram, and Phillip LaRue). Great job, guys!
This song is from a nice acoustic CD called "Love Came Down", released in 2009 by New Nation Music, which was founded by Jennie Lee Riddle many years ago. Jennie actually wrote this song as a teenager in 1989, over 20 years ago. JJ Heller performs the song exquisitely here.
From the fantastic Gateway Worship album "The More I Seek You" this is the song "King Of This World". It was written by Jennie Lee Riddle (who wrote "Revelation Song") and Crystal Yates. Sung by Rebecca Pfortmiller with Klaus Kuehn playing piano. The song is a reminder that the King of this world is with us in times of joy, in times of sorrow, in times of peace, and in times of trouble. In other words, always. Thank You, Jesus!
The title song from Selah's 2011 album. Written by the fabulous Jennie Lee Riddle ("Revelation Song"), with beautiful music supplied by Carl Cartee. Shortly after God created a perfect world, chaos ensued, and the world became broken after the fall of man in the Garden of Eden. But God was there offering restoration. Throughout history the chaos and brokenness has continued, and all along God has still been there to offer restoration, and He always will be there. Jennie's personal story behind this song explains that she intended for the song not only to be about the restoration of individuals, but also about the restoration of mankind. My video doesn't really address that other aspect, it focuses on the restoration of individuals. But maybe that's how it all starts. As more and more individuals become restored, they reach out and lead others down that path of restoration. Hopefully one day there will be a snowballing groundswell and mankind will indeed be restored.
Tricia Brock (now Baumhardt) is best known as a lead vocalist with Superchick ("Stand In The Rain", etc). This is a song from her solo album "The Road", written by Jennie Lee Riddle ("Revelation Song") and Don Chaffer. That's her father singing the nice harmony. The concept of brokenness is somewhat difficult and confusing. The song talks about Jesus' power to heal, but then it says that we must be broken. I think what that means is that we must admit that we are sinners (Romans 3:23), and then confess our sins (1 John 1:9), and admit that we are broken. Then forgiveness and healing will follow.
Well, I can't describe Misty any better than this citation that I found on the net:
"Misty Edwards has been a Christian worship leader and song writer at the International House of Prayer in Kansas City since May 1999; it's beginning. Her hunger for reality and depth of encounter with Jesus fuels her worship leading, songwriting and preaching. Misty Edward's lyrics show of her genius on so many levels.
Misty is on the leadership team that trains and gives oversight to IHOP's worship leaders and prophetic singers.
Misty says, "I have a great desire to see the knowledge of God flood this generation. I mean the real knowledge of God, not the distant Sunday School version but the true encounter with the Uncreated. I have devoted my life to searching Him out through His Word, prayer and fasting, and to ask Him to reveal Himself in my day and time. There's no other point for my existence but to touch the Transcendent. I believe that this is the generation who will usher in the Son of Man
Title song from Sandi's album. It's a wonderful album. Interesting that the album title includes the word "edge", since this is an edgy style for Sandi. Every song on the album is fantastic. I think I made five videos for songs off this album. Check it out! It's one of her best ever.
A marvelous song by Casting Crowns that touches on Jesus' presence from birth through His death and ultimately His glorious return. The lyrics come from an old hymn called "One Day", written by Reverend John Wilbur Chapman in the 1800s. The arrangement is by Mark Hall and Michael Bleecker.
Marcella Bickerstaff is interviewed about the story of a dog in her book, Dog Is God Spelled Backwards(How He Speaks...), that suffered from second hand smoke.

Most of us at one time or another have asked God "What do You see in me that makes me worthy of salvation? What do You see in me that You sent Your only son to die for me?" I'm reminded of Psalms 8:4 - "What is man that You are mindful of him?" Well first of all, God created us. Regardless of the ugliness inside all of us, He only sees beauty. Second, He loves us unconditionally.
This song by Mikeschair addresses those questions. The bridge of the song pretty much gives the answer: "You're worth it, you can't earn it. The cross have proven that you're sacred and blameless. Your life has purpose." So, yes, you *are* someone worth dying for.
The song was written by Ben Glover, Mike Grayson, and Sam Tinnesz.
