5 Songs From For King & Country's New Album That I Absolutely Love

In This Article:

For King and Country has been one of my favorite Christian artists since my Sophomore year of high school. God showed me their powerful and unique songs to help get through many tough days that weird teen life can throw at you. I believe their relatable songs can bring anyone out of their sorrow and closer to God. Here are the songs that have really touched me from their new album Burn the Ships.

Need You More.

This song is so beautiful and always brings me to tears. It is so relatable to what I am going through right now. Sometimes you come to a point in your life where everything is slowly falling apart, nothing you do is making it better and you realize how much you really need God.

God only Knows.

I absolutely love the lyrics, "There's a kind of love that God only knows." Life gets so hard and it feels like no one understands, not a single person. You know everyone is judging but they have no clue what's going on in your life. God knows, fully understands, and cares and his love will always find you. One of the things I always seem to forget is that Jesus completely understands, and this song helps me remember.

Fight on, Fighter.

This song gives a sense of hope and courage. it reminds that on tough days anything is possible with God. This song reminds me of one of my favorite passages, Romans 5:3-5. Our suffering makes us stronger and in the end is worth pushing through all the bad. We are never alone through and God is carrying us the whole way through.

Joy.

This song is a lot of fun and upbeat but also portrays a serious message. No matter what goes on in life it is still our choice to find the joy in even the worst moments.

Control.

Lately, I have tried to take full control of what I thought was my life. All I have done is completely ruin everything around me. This song brings me back to the reality that my life is always better when I give it up to God and let him take control of every aspect.

Taylor Swift's Eras Tour is What I Hope Heaven Feels Like

Taylor Swift in orange dress playing a moss-covered piano on stage with bright lights.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.
