My new fave: JJ Heller


So I know she may not be like other traditional "Christian-y" music - but lately I just love-love-LOVE JJ Heller. Her lyrics are great and she's got this adorable fresh and quirky folk thing going for her that brings a sense of real-ness to her music. I like that her music reminds me that my relationship with the Lord doesn't need to be anything showy and big -  it can just be simple.

The past few days, I've been listening to her album, The Pretty and the Plain. I really love the lyrics to You Tell Me So

How high, how deep is your love for me And you will never let me goLight or darkness, doesn't matter Because you will never let me go
And I will never cry aloneAnd You will always be my homeAnd You tell me so
You love everyone that I love More than I ever couldThough my days are filled with troubleLord I know you're good
Little ones to you belong When I am weak, you are strong…



Some of her other songs on the album are great too (last two not so spiritual, but very sweet and fun):

 The Pretty and the Plain
Where I Land
Grow

She's got lots of other great albums (that I even checked out yet, so I'm super excited for a week of listening and discovery!) like Deeper, When I'm with You, and Only Love Remains.

Happy Listening :)
