Depths has been a very personal song to me this year and as we look forward into the new year I just wanted to dedicate this song for what the future may hold. I wanted to do an original for this year but I felt that this was a better fit to cap of this tumultuous year.

Depths (Cover)

Cold Warmth

Even If There's No One

Wet Drought

Hi guys! As we have gone through really trying times in 2020, I wanted to write a song to encourage us as we look forward to 2021. Thus this song "Soli Deo Gloria" was born. 

To be honest I wrote the lyrics of this song maybe 3 months ago and only came up with the melody and chords like yesterday HAHAHA so I felt it was quite divine timing that I am uploading this song on the last day of this year.  "Soli Deo Gloria" Means "Glory To God Alone" and I stumbled upon this phrase just listening to sermons online and I went to research on it and realised it is part of 5 tenets - Sola Gratia/Sola Christus/Sola Fide/Sola Scriptura/Soli Deo Gloria which mean "Grace alone"/"Christ alone"/"Faith alone"/"Scriptures alone"/"Glory of God alone" respectively. 

I really liked how in musical liturgy as well as the Church used these terms to remind us that whatever we do is for the sake of the Glory of God alone and for praising Him not for our own glory. Even as we step into the new year, I want to remember Glory to God alone and remember that He alone is sovereign irregardless of circumstance or times. 

I recorded this song via my DSLR camera cause I did a video for this song to be uploaded so apologies for the quality in audio! Hopefully it would still encourage you to set your sights upon God even as you start your new year :)

Lyrics:
Glory to God
The king upon his throne
He stands undefeated
Worship him alone
In every waking battle cry
Through the dead he calls and raise to life
Soli deo gloria 

Sola gratia
By grace alone we stand 
In Sola Christus 
My hope is found in God
Through Sola fide 
sola scriptura 
Soli deo gloria 

Grace alone
By grace alone we stand
In Christ alone
My hope is found in God
Through faith alone and
scripture alone
To the glory of God alone
