Worship Songs... you gotta love them. But sometimes they can seem a bit cheesy and repetitive.
You want to spend some time listening to Christian music that will center you and let you worship through your earphones while walking to classes or studying in the library.
But sometimes all of the songs you have to choose from seem kind of lame. Christian music does not align with modern music tastes but instead forms its own separate category of cheesy lyrics and out-of-date background music. If you don't know what I'm talking about, turn on WBFJ or K-Love or whatever your local Christian radio station is.
Don't get me wrong, there are some artists and music that I love! Lauren Daigle!! Housefires!! They're literally fire! However, a majority of the Christian community may still not know that there are non-cheesy worship options that are actually nice to listen to. So here is a list of my favorite atypical worship songs:
1. On the Banks// Chris Renzema
'Cause your water's my redemption
Into your kingdom, your heart, God Most High
And your blood is the pow'r that breaks off my shackles
Ends all my battles, I find rest in You, Most High"
2. Turn// Future of Forestry
"Then morning rays through the haze
The golden blaze got a hold of you
It was a vision of light
That turned you around"3. Sticks and Stones// Kings Kaleidescope
"Longing to give and taste forgiveness
Dying to live a pure religion
Settle the rush to chase submission
Open my eyes and soul to listen"
4. Losing My Religion// Lauren Daigle
"I'm losing my religion, and finding something new
'Cause I need something different, and different looks like You"
5. Let Your Blood Plead For Me// Sojourn
"Let your blood plead for me
Wash me clean
I believe, Lord, I believe
Your blood has covered me"
6. Melt My Soul To Love// Red Mountain Church
"The power, the sweetness of that voice,
My stony heart does move;
Makes me in Christ my Lord rejoice
And melts my soul to love"
7. Jumping from Jaded Heights// Kings Kaleidescope
"Show me every grace I lost the fight to see
I'm coming around
Remedy the piece of faith that broke in me"
8. Farther Along// Josh Garrels
"The good man dies, the bad man thrives
And Jesus cries because he loves 'em both
We're all castaways in need of rope"
9. Not in a Hurry// Will Reagan
"I'm learning to listen
Just to rest in Your nearness
I'm starting to notice
You are speaking"
10. Peace Like a River// Page CXVI
"come to the waters
watch it flow, with his love
where your heart won't wither
but grow"
