Experience the power of faith with Sam The Psalmist’s latest Christian song, “Breakthrough” which features Eskay!

“Breakthrough” is a deeply personal and spiritually significant song by Samuel Mubenesha, known professionally as Sam The Psalmist. Written during a period of profound grief and struggle, the song captures a transformative moment in Sam’s life.

Background: Sam The Psalmist was born on September 5, 1988, and hails from the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC). His early life was marked by tumultuous circumstances, as he and his family fled the violence in their homeland when he was just six years old. They sought refuge in Zambia, Botswana, and eventually settled in South Africa. This diverse background is reflected in Sam’s unique accent and cultural influences.

Raised by a strict doctor father and a creatively driven mother, Sam was instilled with a strong work ethic and resilience. Though he began his musical journey as an accompanist at the age of twelve, he remained reticent about singing. However, in his early twenties, he began receiving melodies and lyrics through dreams and divine inspiration. This led him to step into the role of a psalmist, a title he embraced after someone called him that and it resonated deeply with him.

The Inspiration Behind “Breakthrough”: The song “Breakthrough” was birthed from a particularly difficult period in Sam’s life, following the loss of his father to COVID-19. This profound loss left Sam devastated and struggling with his faith and ability to pray. For three months, he found it almost impossible to connect with God through prayer.

One morning, during his devotional time, Sam experienced a moment of clarity and inspiration. He began hearing a melody and lyrics in his heart, singing, “I can see Your hand moving in this place.” This divine encounter was a turning point for him, leading to the completion of the song during subsequent devotional times. “Breakthrough” became a symbol of hope and healing for Sam, reflecting his journey from despair to a renewed connection with God.

Sam’s Journey: Despite being an introvert and feeling shy at times, Sam The Psalmist has embraced his role with dedication. His music is not just about performance but a prophetic form of worship. It serves as a means to express God’s heart and bring spiritual healing to others.

With a background as a chemical engineer and a Master’s degree, Sam’s intellectual and professional accomplishments complement his musical passion. However, he views his music as the core of his calling, a channel through which he shares his faith and experiences.

The lockdown period served as a wake-up call for Sam. Realizing the importance of sharing his songs with the world, he chose to launch his music despite his initial hesitations. His goal is to ensure that his songs, including “Breakthrough,” reach those who need encouragement and spiritual renewal.

Breakthrough (Lyrics) – Sam The Psalmist ft Eskay
Verse 1
I can see your hand
Moving in this place oh God
And I can hear the sound of chains breaking

Verse 2
I can hear your voice
In the midst of all the chaos
Telling me to be still
Cause you’re in control

Chorus
I see Signs and wonders miracles
Breaking out in this place
I see signs and wonders miracles
Breaking out
I see breakthrough x3
Right now

Verse 3
You moving mountains for me
You breaking walls apart
Making a way for me
Where it seems possible
Back to chorus

Bridge
The heavens are open
Strongholds are broken
In the name of Jesus x2
The bondage is broken
The yolk has been lifted
In the name of Jesus x2

Every stronghold is broken
In the name of Jesus
Every bondage is broken
In The name of Jesus
