This week we’ve got a special sneak peek behind the brand new upcoming album from MercyMe! Front man, Bart Millard, sat down with us to talk about the meaning and inspiration behind “The Hurt & The Healer” and the band’s personal experiences that went into the theme of the record. Check out the videos below to see what he had to say, and get a glimpse at what’s to come!
The previous album was about this paying it forward that revolves around the cross, and this is probably taking it to a more serious level. We’ve gone through a lot of tragedy over this last year, and have seen some pretty tough things. And we’ve had our share of pain in the past, but this year it was different. There are moments when you truly have this collision where your pain is so great, but then Christ the Healer shows up in such a big way that everything changes. There is this ironic sense when you go through something really tragic. It’s the irony of feeling more alive than any time before when the hurt and the Healer collide. -Bart Millard, MercyMe

“All this took place to fulfill what the Lord had said through the prophet: The virgin will conceive and give birth to a son, and they will call him “Emmanuel” which means “God With Us.” Matthew 1:22-23
MercyMe’s song “God With Us” may not have been intended just for Christmas, but it serves as a great worship anthem for setting our hearts and minds on our amazing God and the reason for all of our celebrations. See what frontman Bart Millard had to say about it below, and check out the music video as you prepare for the season.
The whole idea that this big god ever looked our way is pretty mind boggling. Scripture says, “Who is man that you are mindful of us?” and it’s just an amazing thought that God would ever pay attention to us at all. This song is trying to relay that feeling when you find yourself in the presence of God and it’s so intense that you’re about to bust at the seems. It’s a daunting task trying to use limited vocabulary to describe an infinite God, but this is one of those songs that we hope outlasts us. – Bart Millard, MercyMe

“GOD WITH US” by MercyMe
Who are we that You would be mindful of us?
What do You see that’s worth looking our way?
We are free in ways that we never should be
Sweet release from the grip of these chains
Like hinges straining from the weight
My heart no longer can keep from singing
Chorus
All that is within me cries
For You alone be glorified
Emmanuel
God with us
My heart sings a brand new song
The debt is paid these chains are gone
Emmanuel
God with us
Lord You know our hearts don’t deserve Your glory
Still You show a love we cannot afford
Like hinges straining from the weight
My heart no longer can keep from singing
Chorus
Such a tiny offering compared to Calvary
Nevertheless we lay it at Your feet
(Repeat)
Chorus
