TobyMac Releases A Brand New Single!

Hi!

Today on the show I talked about how TobyMac recently released his new single titled, “Nothin’ Sweeter.” This song is upbeat and really shares a great message!

Here is what I shared on the show:

TobyMac recently released his brand new single titled, “Nothin’ Sweeter.” TobyMac has been one of the legends in the Christian music industry earning seven GRAMMY Awards throughout his decorated career. His new single will be debuting on WNZR on Friday’s Morning Thing.

Here is what TobyMac said about his new song. “I’ve had some of the most amazing times that one could ever have on this earth, and I’ve also walked through some things that have hit me very hard,” he says about the song. “I don’t think we’re that different from one another in that we all experience some beauty and some things that leave us utterly confused and deeply hurting. I wrote “Nothin’ Sweeter’ because I have been uptown and downtown; I have seen the good of this life and the sorrow by the bitter graveside; and I’ve landed on this: there is nothin’ sweeter in this life than the love of God. It’s what I want to wake up to and what I go to bed to – there’s nothin’ sweeter than His unfailing love.”

Here is the lyric video for this song:

I don’t need the money
I don’t want the fame
I don’t want what I can’t take
With me in the grave

We had a stumper this week, so make sure you tune in next week for a chance to win TWO $5 gift cards to Watts Restaurant.

Honestly, We Just Need Jesus!

Hi!

Today’s Monday Motivation song comes from Terrian and her song Honestly, We Just Need Jesus. These lyrics remind us that we need Jesus now more than ever and we need to keep the jaded spirit out of our lives.

Take a good long look in the mirror
Search my heart and soul, make it clearer
Help me take your love, trade the bitter
Leave it in the dust, help me leave it in the dust, Lord

Honestly, I think we just need Jesus
Honestly, I think we just need Jesus
Have we all gone mad? Have we lost our minds?
What used to be wrong, we say that it’s right
Honestly, I think we just need Jesus

Name a sound you might hear outside.

  1. Traffic (45)
  2. Birds (22)
  3. Sirens (16)
  4. Power tools (11)
  5. Voices or kids playing or music (6)
