Daily I stumble (Grace enough) [Live]

Resound Worship, Ben Atkins

This simple song serves an opportunity to realign ourselves with God's gracious rescue. Our daily experience of destructive decisions is a story we all find ourselves in. But it is only a passing page in The Story of our Father's extravagant grace. Losing our place in his story of grace will always lead us deeper into death at the hands of the religion we crave to make ourselves okay - and religion never changed anyone's heart for the better! The Story that Jesus has invited us into is one of grace, not religion; it transforms the shameful burden of a servant into the joyful song of a child. It's time for us to remember our new existence is one of nothing but grace.

Lord you hear the cry (Lord have mercy) [Live]

Resound Worship, Geraldine Latty

At the end of a creative writing session, I took a moment to reflect on the experiences I'd had in the weeks previously, the big headlines [and the not so popular ones] that had caught my attention in the news, the conversations where ongoing questions and disappointment, the weeping and struggle with illness, were being expressed by friends and family. It wasn't long before the prayer 'Lord have mercy' began to form in my prayers and in my initial improvisations around the song.

We Will Glorify

Resound Worship, Sam Hargreaves, Elise Massa, Matt Weeks

The short verses each begin with call and response and the idea is that different voices take turns to call out in song and lead the rest of the group.

Come let’s sing (Psalm 95) [Live]

Resound Worship, Joel Payne

During the last 12 months I've run songwriting workshops on both sides of the globe. In each workshop we try to model song-critiquing and collaboration, and I always take along something I'm working on. This is the song I've shared with several groups this past year. Their collective thoughts, observations and constructive suggestions have all contributed to this finished song. It's been hard work, trying to stick closely to essence of the psalm while keeping a simple structure and rhyme scheme, and it's taken many weeks and many miles to get there. Thank you to everyone who's played a part! I hope it will be prove a lively, joyful and humble call to worship our great creator God.

Christ was raised [Live]

Resound Worship, Sam Hargreaves

Jesus’ resurrection has world-transforming implications! I’ve been co-writing a book with my wife, Sara, about Whole Life Worship. One of the things which struck us is that the resurrection of Christ is so often only spoken about in songs as having an impact on the individual worshipper. I don’t ever want to lose this personal connection. But in Ephesians, for example, I think we see at least three levels of impact: on an individual level, resurrecting us from the death of sin and guilt (Ephesians 2:1–10); on a relational level between us as humans (2:11–18); and on a cosmic level, the unification of ‘all things in heaven and on earth under Christ’ (1:10). I got so excited about this I wanted to try and write a song/hymn about it, so here it is.
