Ah yes, the first sounds we heard in the womb if we grew up in the church.

These are the Christian songs we dreaded as children when our parents dragged us to Sunday service.

The worship songs we had to learn when we were part of the church choir.

I usually don't listen to worship music in my day to day life, and if you don't either, don't beat yourself up for it.

However, I know what it feels like to have your family, the church, and your guilty conscience tells you if you're not getting some worship time in, you're not doing the whole Christian life right!

But that's not the case. If you were raised in the church and know God, truth is that faith and belief are already instilled in your being.

I have always loved worship not because someone told me to, but because of how much I love music in general!

With my love for music and singing, and how powerful most of the worship services I've been in, I found a new respect for worship music.

The point of worshipping is to completely let go of who you are and what you're doing and give God all of your praise.

No matter what you've been through, what you're doing in your life, those intimate moments where you can allow yourself to let go are truly the greatest moments you will ever feel.

But what songs do I listen to? What songs make me feel the most liberated and peaceful?

Here are the best praise and worship songs that everyone loves:

1. Praise & Worship Song: "Transfiguration" by Hillsong Worship

This song is number one on my playlist for a reason.

In 2015, Hillsong Worship released their album, "Open Heaven/River Wild," and it is arguably one of their best albums to date.

The composition, the lyrics, and the production of the song really move my hands up to the sky without me realizing it.

This song talks about the promise God has for all of us and how grateful we are for what He has done for us.

2. Praise & Worship Song: "Where You Go I Go" by Kim Walker/Jesus Culture

All of my OG's know this song! And if you don't, get into it! A bit of an oldie, but "Where You Go I Go" will always remain a major goodie in my eyes.

Like the title says, this song promises that no matter where we are in life, we will always follow the path God has made for us.

All you need to do is walk and keep your eyes fixated on Him."

With only eight lines of lyrics, it is delivered through powerful vocals from none other than Kim Walker herself.

This is another anthem for those who are feeling weak and need someone to lean on and trust in.

Good news for you, that person is Jesus!
