Little Rock, AR (January 29, 2021)
Dwell Songs, a community of worship leaders and musicians who are passionate about seeing spiritual renewal and awakening in this generation, is part of the Dwell movement, a broader discipleship and worship movement that equips and empowers young leaders through events, resources and community. Dwell Songs has released a brand new single, “Abide.”

Story Behind the Song:
This song was written as a meditation on John 15, the “vine and branches” passage. It became somewhat of a life verse for Dwell Songs leader Aaron Williams, so he began figuring out the best way to form it into its own song. Aaron said, “I believe this song is a timely one for the Church. I’m not sure I’ve seen a moment in my lifetime where it’s more important for Jesus’ followers to truly cultivate an abiding life.” Their prayer is that this song leads people to discover the truth of this Scripture in a tangible way.

For my waking breath
For my daily bread
I depend on You
I depend on You
For the sun to rise
For my sleep at night

You’re the way the truth and the life
You’re the well that will never run dry
I’m the branch and You are the vine
Draw me close and teach me to abide

Where the Spirit leads
As I’m following
I depend on You

Still in front of me
