11 Praise and Worship Songs to Help Get You Through Life
Metro Lyrics

Life is a roller coaster. It is comprised of really high ups and very deep lows. It twists and turns, jolting us at its every whim. It's uncomfortable at times and something that we have no control over; we're just along for the ride. With that being said, I thought I'd share 11 Praise and Worship songs that get me through, in hopes that they will also help you in the midst of this unpredictable thing we call life.

*In no particular order*

1. Worth by Anthony Brown and Group Therapy


"You thought I was to die for, so You sacrificed Your life."

God thought little ole me (and you and everyone else) was important enough to not only die, but die in the most humiliating of ways, for. You won't find a love like that on this earth.

2. Even When It Hurts by Hillsong Young and Free


"Even when it hurts like hell, I'll praise You. Even when it makes no sense to sing, louder then, I'll sing your praise."

Because walking with God is not always rainbows and butterflies. It doesn't always (or ever) make sense but He is worthy to be praised simply because of who He is.

3. I Need You to Survive by Hezekiah Walker


"You are important to me, I need you to survive."

We weren't meant to make this journey alone. In a world full of selfishness and hatred, remember that we are brothers and sisters in Christ, made in God's image and likeness, and we should love each other as we love ourselves.

4. Broken Vessels by Hillsong Young and Free


"Oh, I can see the love in Your eyes, laying Yourself down, raising up the broken to life."

Who else is raising the broken to life? Who else is willing to love you unconditionally through all your faults and flaws?

5. No Weapon by Fred Hammond


"I will not be afraid of the arrows by day, from the hand of my enemy, I can stand my ground with the Lord on my side, for the snares they have set will not succeed"

This is my anthem. Often times I find myself overwhelmed but this song is a constant reminder that I can do any and all things with Christ and the enemy honestly can't touch me.

6. Closer by Bethel Music


"Pull me a little closer, take me a little deeper, I want to know Your heart."

This is forever my prayer. Getting to know and have a deeper relationship is at the top of my priority list, not because I seek to get things from Him, but because I have a true desire to know the One who created and loves me.

7. I Need You Now by Smokie Norful


"I need You now."

What more is there to say? I love this song, primarily, because it is FACTS. We need Him at all times, there are no exceptions and it's great to know that I can run to Him 25/8.

8. Gracious Tempest by Hillsong Young and Free


"Your love is crashing over me...immerse me in the wonder of Your love."

Again, constant prayer of mine.

9. My God is Awesome by Charles Jenkins


"My God is awesome, He heals me when I'm broken..."

God honestly comes through for me. With everything that life throws my way, He has and always will be the One who makes it all better.

10. It Is Well by Bethel Music


"Let go, my soul, and trust in Him. The waves and wind still know His name."

Letting go and trusting in God is a struggle for me. I tend to get myself all riled up over things I have no control over and no business stressing over. Take a moment to relax and realize that God is surprised by nothing and everything in this world submits to Him.

11. Holy by Matt Gillman


"There is no one like You. You are Holy."

If you ever want to get on your face before the Lord, this song will do it for ya. It's my absolute favorite because I can feel the majesty and wonder of this amazing God that I serve.

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

Happy Birthday Cake

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.
