This song is a prayer for God’s kingdom to come on earth as it is in heaven. I remember my pastor Mark Pickerill once saying “when we pray for God’s kingdom to come, we’re praying that the activities of heaven will start happening here on earth.”

This song is a response of gratitude for God’s grace and a reminder that His love is not something we earn but simply thank him for! Bob Wilson composed the music and arranged the awesome horns which include a tuba!

This song is taken from Psalm 147 and was written in Jerusalem! The music was originally inspired when I had the idea for a thumb pick, finger-style pattern in which I play a separate bass line and rhythm pattern. It’s so fun to play! A few months later, my daughter Emmie and I videoed the song while in Hawaii.

I wrote this song for my daughter Emmie one day when she told me she was having a hard day at college. I texted this song back to her. It simply declares who and what Jesus is to us and how He is ever with us. For me, one of the great blessings of worship songs is that they help us declare and believe what is true about our God.

I had the privilege of growing up in a revival called The Jesus Movement. One of the hallmarks of this revival was the expectation & hope that Jesus would return any day. Toward the end of the gospel of Matthew, chapter 24, we’re warned that people are going about their lives with no awareness or urgency that the second coming of Jesus is near.

Matthew 18:2-4 instructs us that in order to enter God’s kingdom we must become like a child. Imagine, the Holy God of the universe, whom we often imagine as only somber all the time, wants us to approach Him with the simple faith, humility, love, and joy of a child! I love this thought and did my best to communicate it in this song.

This song is a finger-style guitar waltz written from the book of Isaiah, chapter 43. Here, God is speaking directly to his people, assuring and comforting them and us with declarations of who He is, what He has done, and what He will do. He calls us by name, calls us His own and is the God who will walk with us through our greatest struggles.
