Turn It Up, That's My Jam!

Your love so deep is washing over me
Your face is all I seek, You are my everything
Jesus Christ, You are my one desire
Lord hear my only cry, to know You all my life

Every once in a while, a song comes along that penetrates the hardest of hearts. I’m talkin’ about callousness that’s built up over years and years and hurt and fear and anger and bitterness and just flat out stubbornness. The song “Sinking Deep” released by Hillsong Young & Free is one of those songs.

The lyrics are beautiful. You almost DON’T want to sing along, well, if you’re really paying close attention to the words and are one of those “I won’t sing it unless I believe it” kinda people… you probably CAN’T sing along. I mean, can you honest say:

“Your face is all I seek” or
“You are my everything” or
“You are my one desire” or
“Lord hear my only cry, to know You all my life”

They’re AMAZING declarations of faith and passion. Songs like this inspire me to be a BETTER Christian. Songs like these challenged me to EVALUATE my faith, my life, and my love. Songs like this remind me that God is NOT done speaking through his people.


What songs do you have loaded up in your playlist?
