This is a little different from the usual “Hip Hop/ Rap” genre. This is Micah Bournes, a poet from California. This is his spoken word poem on how God made the universe out of his words– on how he spoke life into the void.
Lyrics:
I hear the Savior say,
“Thy strength indeed is small;
Child of weakness,
watch and pray,
Find in Me thine all in all”.
Lord, now indeed I find,
Thy power and Thine alone,
Jesus died my soul to save,
And melt my heart of stone.
Jesus paid it all,
All to Him I owe.
Sin had left a crimson stain,
He washed it white as snow.
And when before the throne,
I stand in Him complete,
Jesus died my soul to save,
my lips shall still repeat:
Oh praise the One,
who paid my debt,
And raised this life up from the dead.

Lyrics:
Piercing light when His soul was unbound and He opened His eyes. trembling ground; when the door stood aside and He stepped out. every jaw dropped, such a striking display, I heard their blood ran cold. because, “you won’t find the living One among the dead.” they said an angel spoke.
The Light shines, becoming alive.
Piercing light; every reason to doubt, there’s a man in the sky. trembling ground; they had quite the surprise and fell face down. darkness took flight with the temperature change as if its power broke. ‘cause, “you won’t find the living One among death,” they said an angel spoke.
I remember those three days past Your death, waking with the searing pain of loss, and I remember the ringing in my ears at the news that they brought us. I remember running to Your tomb, my heart was crushed wondering who took You. I remember as the pieces fell in place.
I’ve seen things I’d have never believed, punctuated by the dead Man walking.
Thanks for listening.

Lyrics:
Depth of mercy! Can there be
Mercy still reserved for me?
Can my God his wrath forbear,
Me, the chief of sinners, spare?
Me, the chief of sinners, spare?
I have long withstood his grace,
Long provoked him to his face,
Would not hearken to his calls,
Grieved him by a thousand falls.
My God, my God, my God I’m sorry!
My God, my God, my God forgive me!
Forgive me Lord! Forgive me Lord!
Forgive me Lord! Forgive me Lord!
I my Master have denied,
I afresh have crucified,
And profaned his hallowed name,
Put him to an open shame.
My God, my God, my God I’m sorry!
My God, my God, my God forgive me!
Forgive me Lord! Forgive me Lord!
Forgive me Lord! Forgive me Lord!
My God, incline my heart now to repent
O Lord, for all my sins, let me lament
Today may I for my foul revolt, deplore
Weep, believe, and sin no more
There for me the Savior stands,
Shows his wounds and spreads his hands.
God is love! I know, I feel,
Jesus weeps and loves me still,
Jesus bleeds and loves me still,
Jesus dies and loves me still.
Thanks for listening.

Underoath is an American Christian post-hardcore band from Tampa, Florida. Even though they are describes as a Christian metal band, their style is always evolving from metal to emocore to straight-up hardcore. This song “Some Will Seek Forgiveness, Others Escape” describes that love of the Father will not only love us in our unfaithfulness and even when we are unloving, but will teach us to do the same.
Lyrics:
I heard a voice through the discord
Of a deluge of passersby.
I saw one gaze frozen in time
Watching me passing by.
I swear I’ll know your face in the crowd,
And I’ll hear your voice so loud
When you’re whispering…
Hey unfaithful I will teach you
To be stronger, to be stronger.
Hey ungraceful I will teach you
To forgive one another.
Here’s my kiss to betray
Desperate to brush the lips of grace.
Do you feel hollow when you think of how I’ve lied?
Oh sweet angel of mercy with your grace like the morning
Wrap your loving arms around me.
Oh sweet angel of mercy with your grace like the morning
Wrap your loving arms around me.
Hey unfaithful I will teach you
To be stronger, to be stronger.
Hey ungraceful I will teach you
To forgive one another.
Hey unfaithful I will teach you
To be stronger, to be stronger.
Hey unloving, I will love you,
I will love you, I will love you.
Hey unloving
I will love you
Jesus I’m ready to come home.
Thanks for listening.
