BETHEL MUSIC was formed for the express purpose of creating corridors in the heavenly realms through the mystery of music, that facilitate deeper dimensions of God's manifest presence. His manifold reality inspires worship, ignites revelation and captivates the world.
Therefore the triune mission of BETHEL MUSIC is to:
Adore God through thanksgiving, praise and worship.
Instruct the Church with songs, hymns and spiritual songs.
And enlighten the lost with melodies of mercy.
These foundation stones have been passed down to us for more than five decades and are gaining momentum with each passing generation. Our goal is to honor the core values of our past, build a creative, catalytic culture in the present and leave a legacy for future generations.
The main pillars of BETHEL MUSIC'S core distinctives are:
God is good all the time; in fact He is even better than you can imagine.
The redemptive power of Jesus Christ transformed us from sinners to saints (at conversion), eradicated our sin nature and imparted to us His divine character.
We have been commissioned to carry His glory, make disciples OF ALL nations and bring heaven to earth, until the kingdom's of this world become the Kingdom of our God.
We've been commanded to do greater miracles then Jesus, demonstrate God's superior Kingdom, empower His supernatural people and annihilate the works of the devil.
We embrace a fantastic future, refuse to re-empower a disempowered devil and are determined to leave our children's, children's, children a world in revival.
The practical mandates of BETHEL MUSIC are facilitated through several different avenues:
Our own songwriters group, who are commissioned to create songs and sounds that carry our mission and core values, compose most of our music.
We have several schools through out the year that train, equip and deploy musicians, songwriters and producers to help accomplish our God-given mandate.
BETHEL MUSIC produces, mixes and masters songs and music videos in cooperation with other professionals in different phases of production.
We distribute songs and music videos globally through several venues including partnerships with like-minded distribution companies.
BETHEL MUSIC publishes and manages songs, distributing them through CCLI.
Closing Thoughts:
Our earnest prayer is that BETHEL MUSIC would inspire a revolution that impacts the planet by reforming the Church and transforming the world.
May everything we produce be rooted in His Excellency, be inspired by His creativity and be entrenched in His Divine Nature.
And finally, may the Lord use our music to take you on a Holy Spirit journey into the very heart of God Himself!

Bethel Music Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Who’s flames reach and touch the sky
Burn within my soul and mind
‘Till all I see are Your eyes
Like the dawn takes back the light
Like Your Son brought back to life
Resurrect my soul’s desire
To burn again with true love’s fire
Lord God come awaken love
Come stir my soul to long for all You are
I’m desperate just to have more of Your heart
Come awaken love
‘Cause I live to love You
Almighty God of love
And my desire is to know you
And give you all my heart
Lord God come awaken love
Come stir my soul to long for all You are
I’m desperate just to have more of Your heart

My church plays this song over the speakers every morning while we're waiting for service to start. I really like it and I just now got around to finding it for myself.

This song cheers me up..the past few days have been a nightmare for me. I had a dream last night, and in short, about God shielding me from fire and shrapnel from a giant ball of fire from a bomb. It felt so real, I saw myself almost engulfed in fire, yet unharmed because God was with me :)
