Building 429’s Jason Roy Debuts “It’s All Yours” From Upcoming Multi-Artist Project

GRAMMY nominated, Dove Award-winning and RIAA Gold-selling Building 429 lead vocalist Jason Roy releases “It’s All Yours” today (May 12) at digital and streaming outlets globally from The Fuel Music via https://slinky.to/ItsAllYours. The song is the first of several singles set to debut in the coming months from the multi-artist A New Heaven And A New Earth project that is slated to premiere just before Thanksgiving 2023.

Recording and co-producing the anthemic “It’s All Yours” with Riley Friesen, Roy was inspired to write the song following his lifechanging experience climbing the Half Dome summit in California’s Yosemite National Park, which led to more adventures in nature.

A New Heaven And A New Earth

“I really wanted to write a song that echoes how small I feel in this space, and yet how important my role here is,” says Roy. “I look around and see what an incredible gift has been put into our hands. Thinking about the Earth, the massive Redwood trees, the mountains…I sat down at the piano and wrote bursting forth from the ground to the sky, the opening line in the song that runs right into every breath, in and out, you give life, every moment an eternity between what could be and what shouldn’t be, it’s all yours.”

Leading the anthemic, pop-driven rock single while on tour, Roy was also honored to be invited to sing the song at an event held at the Vatican Oct. 26, 2022. Having an instant connectivity, the song launches with a motif that announces, ‘It’s time to get up, here we go, we’re doing something together.’

“It was really important to me to create a song and a track that felt like, Wow! Coldplay would have done that,” the singer relays. “I wanted it to have a world vibe that would echo around the globe that something bigger and larger is going on here, working hard to keep an ethereal nature to it.”

While Roy’s single is the first to be released from the A New Heaven And A New Earth project, he will be joined by several of his well-known peers representing multiple musical genres who felt led to participate. Each artist responded to the call to write and record a song on how taking care of creation is to glorify God (Genesis 2:15). Contributing artists and more music will be revealed in the coming months.

Not Finished Yet – Building 429

GRAMMY-nominated band Building 429 releases their newest single “Not Finished Yet.” Continuing the band’s tradition of delivering big songs with big emotion, the new song is a stirring, hopeful pop anthem about how even when we stray far away, God is there, ready to draw us close to Him. “Not Finished Yet’ was written by Building 429 frontman Jason Roy along with Riley Friesen, who also produced the song.

“At a certain point in life, we all get a moment to take a cold, hard, unflinching look in the mirror and take stock of who we really are,” shares Jason Roy. “On a good day, I know that I can see love, joy, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control. The next day, if I’m honest, I might see the exact opposite. The truth is that the COVID pandemic gave us all a LOT of time to look in the mirror and see the things that we wish we knew how to change. I realized that the beginning of freedom and hope was the moment I finally admitted I didn’t have it all together and I still needed Jesus to complete the work in me.”

A lyric video for “Not Finished Yet” also releases today and can be viewed below. “Not Finished Yet” is available now to download or stream.
