Released with Provident Label Group and Essential Worship, CXMMXNS is a new chapter for these songwriters and worship leaders. Fielding and Morgan have a remarkable catalog of worship songs that have equipped churches for years—and now for years to come with this new chapter. CXMMXNS is worship, grounded in scripture, that unites believers around our common confession—CHRIST.

ABOUT CXMMXNS: Birthed in Sydney, Australia, CXMMXNS is passionately committed to gathering worshippers worldwide and serving local churches with songs everyone can sing. Grammy-Award and Dove-Award-winning songwriters Ben Fielding and Reuben Morgan (both formerly of Hillsong Worship) have united to form CXMMXNS.

From the pen of these two creative forces have come some of the most celebrated and sung worship anthems in the modern church: ‘Goodness of God,’ ‘Who You Say I Am,’ ‘What A Beautiful Name,’ ‘Cornerstone,’ and ‘Mighty To Save’ (to name a few)—sung by tens of millions of Christ-followers every week.

One of the most iconic songs in Christian music history, “Rise Again,” has been reimagined by 11:21 Worship, the multigenerational music expression of World Challenge.

In celebration of World Challenge’s renowned ministry, which spans five decades and counting, 11:21 Worship’s impassioned arrangement of “Rise Again” was recorded and produced by group leaders Kelly Wilkerson and Jared Anderson and co-produced by James Guerra.

Intrinsically tied to the history of World Challenge, “Rise Again” was written in 1977 by Christian music pioneer and Gospel Music Hall of Famer Dallas Holm during his 10-year tenure serving alongside ministry founder David Wilkerson. The resurrection anthem is featured on Dallas Holm & Praise LIVE, which was the first-ever RIAA Gold certified album by a contemporary Christian band.

Named the Gospel Music Association’s Song of the Year in 1978, “Rise Again” became a bellwether of the genre helping define the new sound of Christian music in the late 1970s. Now, 47 years after its initial release, the groundbreaking song is being embraced once more by worshippers around the world.

“I believe 11:21 Worship enhances the ministry by holding with honor the message and mission of World Challenge,” shares World Challenge vice president and 11:21 Worship founder Kelly Wilkerson of the collective’s purpose.

“It’s in our DNA to proclaim the glorious message of the cross, and though our mission field may be domestic in the practical and physical sense, music travels around the world on streaming platforms. We are thankful World Challenge believes in us and in proclaiming the Gospel through song. We pray that those who hear ‘Rise Again’ will understand the deeper song of love God is singing to them.”

“We have such a rich connection with Dallas Holm’s music that we wanted to revisit this song,” shares acclaimed singer/songwriter and worship leader Jared Anderson of 11:21 Worship. “World Challenge is about the Gospel mission, choosing a path that’s different from mainstream culture, and following Jesus at any cost.

‘Rise Again’ resonates with the disruption of Jesus’ ministry and resurrection, and it’s a chance to engage a timeless story in a fresh way. We hope this new recording reaches audiences who weren’t even alive when the original was a chart-topper.

Testimony (Live) – Lyrics

Verse 1:

From the rising of the sun

To the going of the same

Your love for me will never fade away

Through the ups and downs

And many many tests

Oh Lord a victor I remain

From the rising of the sun

To the going of the same

Your love for me will never fade away

I know the enemies may come

They may come in one way

But they will flee in seven ways

Chorus:

So I’m gonna thank you

For my testimonies

For my testimonies

(For my testimony)

Lord I will give you all the glory

For my testimony

For my testimony

Oh Lord a victor I remain

(Repeat)

Verse 2:

Like Jabez,

He said a little prayer

Enlarge my territory

Pour out your blessings over me

Baba carry me dey go, carry me dey go

Favour everywhere I go

And keep the enemy far from me

Now God has turned my life around

Its everywhere I go

See blessings chasing after me

I’ve come to dance and celebrate

And share my testimony

(God has) Enlarged my territory!

Chorus:

So I’m gonna thank you

(for my testimony)

Oh

(for my testimony)

(For my testimony)

Lord I will give you all the glory

(For my testimony)

(For my testimony)

Oh lord a victor I remain

Bridge:

See who God don bless today

There is no man who can curse

When His blessings come your way

Testimonies every day

People no know me again

Cos the story’s not the same ooo

Mma mma onye wanyi imela (x7)

About:

Uzo Oachi is a passionate gospel minister known for her powerful and anointed worship. Her music ministry aims to uplift and inspire believers, drawing them closer to God’s presence through heartfelt worship and praise. “Supernatural,” her latest album is a testament to her commitment to spreading the Gospel through music.

Midnight Sky, led by the ever-poetic Tim Tye, has once again tapped into the deep wells of Americana and country music with their latest offering, “A Few Good Years (Remix).” This track is a departure from their previously upbeat singles, presenting instead a reflective and profoundly introspective rendition of their earlier work.

The remix is a soothing, acoustic listening experience that invites the audience to pause and find solace in life’s simpler moments.

The original charm of “A Few Good Years” lies in its lyrical richness, a quality that Tim Tye carries over into this remix with grace. Lyrically, the song is a profound meditation on the essence of a well-lived life—a theme that resonates universally. The imagery of a cozy fireside, the companionship of a loyal dog, and the comfort of having love and laughter paints a picture of contentment that is both idyllic and desirable. The chorus, “May your lifetime be blessed / With a few good years,” acts as both a blessing and a gentle reminder of life’s fleeting nature. http://www.midnightskymusic.com/

Musically, the remix strips back some of the production layers found in the original to allow a more raw and natural sound to emerge. The gentle strumming of an acoustic guitar paired with a soft, melodic piano accompaniment sets a tranquil soundscape. The female vocals in this version are particularly poignant, adding a layer of depth with their gentle delivery that complements the song’s reflective tone perfectly.

Review: Midnight Sky’s “A Few Good Years (Remix)”

Stream & Enjoy

Perhaps what makes this remix stand out is its ability to slow everything down. In a world where music often seeks to energize, “A Few Good Years (Remix)” provides a counterbalance. It allows listeners to step back, reflect, and absorb each lyric’s weight fully. This track does not just aim to entertain; it provides a space for contemplation and appreciation for life’s quieter moments.

In conclusion, Midnight Sky’s “A Few Good Years (Remix)” is more than just a song; it’s a reflective journey that resonates with anyone who takes the time to listen deeply. It holds a mirror to the small, often overlooked joys of life, reminding us to cherish them.

Tim Tye has indeed crafted a piece that will resonate well with listeners who appreciate music that stirs the soul and provokes thought. This remix is not just a good addition to their discography but a necessary one, enriching their already diverse range of songs.

After a brief hiatus, Legal Practitioner, Songwriter, and Music Minister, Favour Uzo has released a brand new single titled “Nso” which means Holy.

A common image for holiness is that of a refiner’s fire. Holiness is to become rid of impurities and to become more pure.

Exodus 15:11 – Who is like you, O LORD, among the gods? Who is like you, majestic in holiness, awesome in glorious deeds, doing wonders?
