This week’s featured song story comes to us from Citizen Way. We’re excited to share with you the story behind their new single “The Lord’s Prayer.”
“A few years ago, I went through the toughest season in my life. We lost our son, Jeremiah to a miscarriage, we moved from Chicago to Nashville and it jeopardized a lot of my income and we even lost a few of our band members. In fact, we almost stopped the band all together. A pastor friend of mine encouraged me when he reminded me that Jesus knows exactly how we feel. In fact, He taught us how to pray in those times and that’s found in Matthew chapter 6 ‘Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be Thy name. Thy kingdom come Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven.’ That was the prayer I needed to pray. In fact, he challenged me to pray it every single day until I got out of that season. And so we want to encourage you that wherever you are in this life, remind yourself that Jesus knows exactly how we feel and that God is sovereign over everything that is happening in our world and in our lives. If you’re in that season, then sing this song with us. This is the new single from Citizen Way called ‘The Lord’s Prayer’.” – Ben Calhoun (Citizen Way)
