From the Heart of the City Worship Band CD 'We Bless', this 'Glee'-style video features soloist and choreographer Jessica McIntosh, reggae/hip-hop artist Ryan Daniel, Heart of the City Band singers Dan & Sandy Adler, Jodie Sellers, Edwin Adorno, Rick Murphy, Karen Austin and dancers Dannell Shu, Allysa Joy Miller and Chelda Smiff.

Legendary gospel singer CeCe Winans delivered a powerful and moving performance of “Goodness of God.”

Life is unfair and can be a painful and devastating experience, leaving you crying out for help. As the saying goes, you’ll find out who your true friends are in those problematic and trying times.

When things get unbearable and overwhelming, people will either show up to be a shoulder to cry on or disappear and cease to exist in your moment of need. People are fickle and can be hard to count on and rely upon at times. But no matter what we endure or go through, God will always be there. He will offer rest, comfort and healing.

In a clip posted on YouTube, CeCe sings about God’s unbelievable love, grace and goodness, especially when we need Him the most. As always, CeCe is fantastic, showing off her stunning voice with her “Goodness of God” performance while performing in the K-LOVE Studios.

The song’s chorus is simple yet effective and memorable. The beautiful words remind us of the powerful, loving and faithful God that we serve.

“Cause all my life, You have been faithful

And all my life, You have been so, so good

With every breath that I am able

Oh, I will sing of the goodness of God”

Praise God! What powerful words and song.

He is faithful, always remaining by our side, and does not change. He is the same God yesterday, today, tomorrow and 50 and 60 years from now.

While our problems, concerns, burdens and worries may seem overwhelming, we serve a mighty God. He is bigger than any situation or circumstance we may face in this life. His grace is sufficient for you.

Deuteronomy 7:9 “Be certain, then, that the Lord your God is God; whose faith and mercy are unchanging, who keeps his word through a thousand generations to those who have love for him and keep his laws.”

The incredibly talented musical group Sounds Like Reign turned in a beautiful and enchanting performance of “It is Better Farther On.”

Life is often a challenging and unfair experience, filled with situations that will overwhelm and push you to your breaking point. Sadly, most of the time, you will not see these problematic, trying circumstances coming, leaving you unable to brace for impact. They can and usually do come when you’re least expecting them.

However, no matter what you’re facing or currently enduring, there is one who will remain by your side through it all. Jesus Christ, the world's Savior, will never leave or forsake you in your time of need. He will offer rest, guidance, direction and shelter from the storm.

In a clip posted on YouTube, Sounds Like Reign sings a familiar tune about enduring these troubling times with Jesus Christ right by our side. Once again, as is always the case, the vocal performances are stellar, angelic even. The voices are stunning.

But as great as the vocal performances and instrument playing in the clip are, the uplifting and encouraging lyrics make this video noteworthy. Everyone will go through times that cause them pain, sorrow and extreme grief. But the song’s reassuring and beautifully written lyrics tell us we are not alone.

The song’s lovely chorus reminds us that while we may be hurting now, Christ is still with us, and because of that, we hope for a better tomorrow. We have a future because of Him.

“Farther on, still go farther

Count the milestones one by one

Jesus will forsake you never

It is better, farther on”

Whatever terrible situation you may be going through, don’t give up, don’t throw in the towel. Jesus Christ remains by your side, and He will not let that horrible time go to waste. The Bible tells us that God works for the good of those who love Him in all situations.

Romans 8:28 “And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.”

Talented Christian music trio Cain has released the official music video for their song “Friend in Jesus.”

No one would have a chance without the love, grace, death and resurrection of Jesus Christ. Christ willingly went to the cross, enduring a brutal, agonizing and wholly undeserved death on behalf of you and me. He took our place on the cross, doing what only He could have done.

Without Christ’s loving sacrifice, we would all be destined to live out our days on this Earth in sin and shame. But Christ’s death and resurrection changed the course of human history. His death has bridged the gap that sin had caused between us and God. Because of Jesus Christ, we can be forgiven of our sins and experience everlasting life with Him.

CAIN's official music video for their song “Friend in Jesus” mentions the dramatic difference and change that Christ has made in their lives. Since He came into their lives, forgiving them of their sins and transgressions, their lives have never been the same. They have found a healer, someone who knows their every pain. He is their shepherd, who always protects, guides and directs.

The song’s beautiful chorus perfectly captures who Jesus is and what He means to them.

“Oh, I have found a friend in Jesus

He is everything to me

I have found a friend in Jesus

Yes, He is my everything”

Christ’s love, forgiveness and grace are gifts that are offered to all. He gives rest to the weary, shelter during the storm and forgiveness to people who confess and believe in their hearts that Christ is Lord. He can and will come into your heart and life and do the same.

Praise God for His Son, Jesus Christ. As the Bible states, no one can come to the Father except through Christ.

1 John 1:7 “But if we are walking in the light, as he is in the light, we are all united with one another, and the blood of Jesus Christ, his Son, makes us clean from all sin.”

This song, from the Heart of the City Band CD 'Listen to the Sound', features lyrics and a slide show of the Heart of the City Band performing live in various settings. Written by Dan Adler. Available at https://danandsandyadler.com, iTunes and most mp3 sites.

When Christians come together in unity across racial/ethnic, generational and denominational lines, it's a whole new song that's created. It's not a Black thing or a White thing or an Asian thing or Latino thing, it's about Jesus. Everyone has to change and stretch and grow to make this beautiful new sound of the Kingdom! We, as Heart of the City Band, are doing what we can to help usher it in. This is the title cut from our CD 'Listen to the Sound'.

There are some worship songs that stand the test of time, and ‘Because He Lives’ is one of them. Check out this moving a cappella rendition of 'Because He Lives.'

At the start of the clip, we see four men seated on a couch in a dimly lit room. They start the chorus. The lead singer has such depth and richness in his voice. The harmonies of the quartet are tight and unique. They have such a cool flare of vocal lines. They are singing this victorious song on Easter Sunday. As they sing, “All fear is gone,” the bass hits low notes that are extremely challenging to hit. Watching this performance will leave you in awe of the talent of these men, given by God for His glory.

I love how each of these singers are of different ages and have various stories, but they are all united because of Jesus. Christ has changed all of their hearts, and they sing about Him together. This is one of the best renditions of “Because He Lives” that you may ever hear. It is absolutely stunning and powerful. It is “chill-worthy.” These are seasoned and very gifted vocalists who have come together to use the natural acoustics of a room to bring the house down. You will not be disappointed at a single second of listening to their musicality and unique abilities.

This quartet reminds us that no matter what we have going on in our lives, Jesus is alive and we have hope to face an uncertain future on earth, because we know that we have a secure future in heaven through Him. This is good news that is not only for Easter day, but for every day in the life of a Christian. Because Jesus lives, life is worth living. 

“But Christ is faithful over God’s house as a son. And we are his house, if indeed we hold fast our confidence and our boasting in our hope.” Hebrews 3:6

This a cappella recording of a classic ancient hymn utilizes 16 tracks of vocal parts by Dan Adler. This hymn has some of the most poignant poetry and vocal arrangements of any hymn of all time. The vocal harmonization was arranged by J.S. Bach. The original lyrics are credited to Arnulf of Lovain in the 13th century. The melody is credited to Hans Leo Hassler around 1600. May these beautiful lyrics and harmonies cause you to marvel at the merciful passion of Jesus Christ. Available as an mp3 download at https://www.cdbaby.com/cd/danadler12 and iTunes.
