It can be easily argued - and successfully as well - that those songs that truly resonate are the ones that speak to our humanity and inspire us to peer well beyond the horizon. Beth Snapp's striking new single a cover of the Steve Winwood classic 'Higher Love' does just that. It's sung for a cause one that is particularly powerful in a time when the struggle for civil rights has not only intensified but become all the more essential.

'To choose a song that calls for a higher love and peace between neighbors is the most imperative message we can be spreading especially at a time when the divide has become so much deeper. I was so proud to get to be a part of that message.' Indeed the song's lyrics share an incisive message that's not only timeless but especially telling as well:
