Anyone know what I mean? Does a song come to mind right away?
Each of these songs holds a special place in my heart, tied to real moments—both joyful and heartbreaking. One of them, “16,” was a song God used to comfort me on one of the hardest days of my life—the day I learned that a friend’s husband had taken his own life. I’ll never forget where I was when I heard it, or the way God met me in that pain through the lyrics.
Each song below includes a lyric video, and I’ve also created and linked playlists at the end so you can listen on the go. For one special song, I’ve included a link to the powerful story behind the lyrics—I hope you take a moment to read it.
Whether you’re in a season of celebration or searching for peace, I pray these songs speak to you the way they’ve spoken to me…right where you are.

Artist:

Key Lyric:
My whole life is a testimonyAnd I can’t help but tell the storyOf who He is and what’s He’s done for me
The truth is I am truly lovedBy a God who’s good when I’m not good enoughI don’t belong to the lies, I belong to You
What if today’s the only day I got?I don’t wanna waste it if it’s my last shot
No regrets in the end
I wanna know I got no what ifs
Here I stand, still I’m drawn down to my kneesIt’s not my strength, but Your’s that carries me
No more running in circles tryna be good enoughI’m far from perfеct, but I found perfect love
In thе arms that won’t let go
Down a hundred highways of empty pursuit.And a thousand foolish things I went through.In a moment I looked up from down on my kneesAnd I cried out to HeavenI could finally see. Jesus, Jesus, I know it’s true.All of my life I was lookin’ for You
I will never stop loving You
I will never stop giving You all the praise
Let them hear You when I speakLet them feel You when I singLet them see YouJust let them see You in me
I want to show the world the love You gave for meI’m longing for the world to know the glory of the KingI want to live like that
This world needs God, but it’s easier to stand and watchI could say a prayer and just move on, like nothing’s wrongBut I refuse‘Cause I don’t want to live like I don’t care
Your love so deepIs washing over meYour face is all I seekYou are my everythingJesus ChristYou are my one desireLord hear my only cryTo know You all my life
Here am I, all of me, take my life, it’s all for Thee
The lies I believedThey got some roots that run deepI let ’em take a hold of my lifeI let ’em take control of my lifeStanding in Your presence, LordI can feel You diggin’ all the roots upI feel Ya healin’ all my wounds upAll I can say is hallelujah
Arms spread wide for the whole wide worldHis arms spread wide where mine should beJesus changed my destinyThank You, God, for red letters
And through it all, through it allMy eyes are on YouAnd it is well, it is wellSo let go my soul and trust in HimThe waves and wind still know His name
