9 worship songs to lean into this month

Graphic of worship songs

To accompany our theme, Take Refuge, we want to provide a list of worship songs to lead us into the place of leaning into the Father. He is our shelter, our comfort, and our peace. You can use these songs in any way that helps you connect to them. Worship, prayers, background music, for example. We hope they will help you enter into the presence of God and find yourself under His wing!

Align your listening with your season.

One of the best ideas I’ve ever heard for how to connect with God in different seasons is to make a playlist of worship songs for that season. Include songs that speak to what you most need to know about God at the time. For example, I have a playlist called “God is not frustrated.” because I need to consistently be reminded of that truth when I feel like I’ve fallen short. I add songs that speak to God’s patience and unconditional love, and I let those fill me up until I’ve started to believe that truth. As a result, it will be easier for me to connect with my Father because I have a right understanding of His character.

That’s what we aim to do with this list. We want to create a playlist that you can use if you need to know the place of refuge you have in Jesus. Furthermore, I encourage you to create your own playlists for the different seasons of your life and add and return to them as you grow with God.

9 worship songs about God as our refuge:

  1. Letting Go – Steffany Gretzinger
  2. Hidden – United Pursuit
  3. Cecie’s Lullaby – Steffany Gretzinger
  4. You Carried Me – Will Reagan
  5. Abba (Arms of a Father) – Jonathan David Helser
  6. Where I Belong – Cory Asbury
  7. Lean Back – Capital City Music
  8. Mountain to Valley – Housefires
  9. Stand In Your Love – Bethel Music

As writers, we love the lyrics of Steffany Gretzinger’s album, “The Undoing“, and Cory Asbury’s album,”Reckless Love“. They are full of raw, honest songs that capture the experience of different emotions and how we connect with the Father through those. They are great options for further listening on this topic.

Testimonials

  • Taylor Phillips, author of Training Ground

    United House Publishing was 100% an answer to prayer. I knew that God called me to write books, but I wasn't in a good position to publish according to certain industry expectations. I continued to be faithful, knowing God would make a way. AND HE DID. United House is such a champion for the underdog—for the one who doesn't have a huge platform but wants to be obedient to God. I was so blessed by the process from start to finish. From the heart and help of the revision team, to editing, coaching, and everything in between. United House was, and is, an incredible company to be part of!

  • Bridget Singleton, author of Mimo’s Welcome

    United House Publishing is absolutely GREAT to work!  I previously published a book alone... and it was so hard.  But UHP gives support like no other!  When they say they are praying over you and your work, you KNOW it!  The author coaches I have worked with have been awesome.  Not only do they help you set and crush your writing goals, they also help you pursue wellness in all aspects of your life, and you can't put a price tag on that!

  • Wendy Perry, author of The Battle Within

    God gave me the words to write a book and then He sent me to the perfect place to publish it—United House Publishing! The thought of editing and publishing a book was new and overwhelming. However, through God's peace and directing me to UHP the whole process was made easier. I felt "safe" and "at ease" sharing the story God gave me to UHP, because they treated me and my manuscript with respect. I'm thankful I obeyed God and worked with UHP to publish my very first book.

  • Gina Rodriguez, author of Teacher Tired

    As a person who has NEVER considered herself a writer, it is no shock I was in need of help when I felt led to publish my first book.  I am so blessed that I was referred to UHP.  I started my writing journey so afraid of the process, not sure where to start or what to expect. It was such a huge relief to have a team of authentic writers, editors, mentor me along the way as I pushed back fears of intimidation that tried to stop me.  With UHP I found my writing voice. The monthly coaching calls were especially important to keep me going when idleness or doubt crept in (because it will).  Having UHP to pray with me, refine my writing skills and keep me accountable made all the difference between beginning to write a book to actually finishing it!

  • Jessica Bishop, author of Collision

    The reason why I love UNITED HOUSE Publishing is because all you have to do is write, and they take care of the rest. It's simple and I LOVE IT!

  • Dianne Wyper, author of Shattered

    UNITED HOUSE Publishing has been like the roadblock-remover to my dreams and my calling. It's because of them that I have got to become all I have dreamed of: An Author!
