You can get a free download from Belfast, Ireland-based modern worship band Bluetree! The song is "Each Day" from the band's acclaimed debut, God Of This City.
While the song is ultimately an upbeat declaration of a believer's unwavering trust in God, it was actually born out of a season of struggle. When Bluetree lead vocalist/guitarist Aaron Boyd sings, "You never leave me alone/Even when storms cloud my way/And I can't see the breaking day/You never leave me alone," the lyrics were crafted by him in response to finding out his daughter Lily was diagnosed with cystic fibrosis not long after birth.
"When I first heard the news, I freaked out. I didn't even know what cystic fibrosis was," Boyd shares. "This thing just rocks your world because you really begin to look at what you believe. God is a loving God. He is the same yesterday, today and forever. And I know He does not bless you with an incurable disease to teach you a lesson. He does not do that. So I suppose I got to a place where I struggled, even when I knew that God is a good God."
And that's exactly what Boyd hopes that listeners will experience when listening to Bluetree--hope not necessarily dictated by circumstance--the moment when God does some of His best work and shaping
