This week in our Summer Soundtrack series, we explore two songs that take us in very different directions — yet ultimately lead us to the same place: Jesus.
Pete Rooke takes us into the wonder of Holy Forever, reflecting on the eternal worship of heaven and the incredible truth that we are invited to join the angels and saints in declaring the holiness of God. He reminds us that God knows us by name, that we belong to Him, and that nothing can change His reign or His love for us.
Liz Romp then turns to the much-loved hymn Come Ye Sinners, Poor and Needy and explores its powerful invitation to come to Jesus exactly as we are. Through the story of hymn writer Joseph Hart, she considers the danger of relying on self-effort and the freedom that comes when we surrender our attempts to fix ourselves and trust in God's grace.
