New Music Releases

A couple of new music releases to share with you...

Phil Wickham’s highly anticipated new single "Battle Belongs," was released last Friday. Co-written with Bethel Music’s Brian Johnson, the track is a powerful proclamation that in Jesus we stand on the side of a battle that has already been won. 

"In 2 Chronicles 20, one of my favorite stories in the Bible, a huge army has amassed to come against the people of God," Wickham explains. "Every time I sing 'Battle Belongs,' it pumps me up because we know that in anything we might face, our God is bigger. I hope this song reminds people that He is with us and for us. If we stand firm and hold our position, we will see the salvation of the Lord on our behalf!"

Also on Friday, I AM THEY released their latest single, "Delivered". This release comes on the heels of "Faithful God", which released earlier this summer (and we featured back in July). Prior to this new music it had been two years since I AM THEY - made up of Matthew Hein, Abbie Parker, (vocals), Brandon Chase (vocals, guitar), Justin Shinn (keys), and Nicole Hickman (drums) - released "Scars," the chart-topping and award-nominated single from their 2018 album Trial & Triumph. With "Faithful God", "Delivered" and the other new songs to be featured on the new project, there’s a heaviness that's been lifted and the band has a redefined sense of what it means to hope for the future. 

Finally, the best-selling and most-awarded female gospel artist of all time, CeCe Winans released her new single “Never Lost”

Winans says, “The message of this song is so powerful. With so much going on in the world, the prayer for ‘Never Lost’ is to encourage and remind us that God is undefeated! Let’s continue to trust in Him like never before!”

As one of the most honored and beloved gospel artists in the industry, Winans has influenced generations of musicians over the course of her storied career. Overall, in her musical journey, she has won 12 Grammy Awards, 20 Dove Awards and seven Stellar Awards. She has produced 11 albums and sold more than 17 million records worldwide. Winans has also been inducted into the Gospel Music Hall of Fame, the Hollywood Walk of Fame, and the Nashville Music City Walk of Fame, in addition to being named a Trailblazer of Soul by BMI and garnering multiple NAACP Image Awards, Soul Train Awards, Essence Awards, and more. 

I predict that you are going to be hearing "Never Lost" often on CCM radio...
