For KING & COUNTRY recently released a new version of their song “For God Is With Us,” this one with Lady A‘s Hillary Scott. The song was originally intended to be a Christmas song, before they realized it had a message that went far beyond the holiday season.
“We originally penned ‘For God Is With Us’ as we were working on our Christmas record,” Joel shares (via JubileeCast). “We started writing this song from the perspective of a baby boy, and then into adulthood and the great sacrifice of Jesus and then how it impacted humanity. And somewhere along the way, we looked back and Luke and I called one another and said, ‘Hey, maybe this is not just devoted to Christmas.
“Maybe this is a thought, an idea, that could carry with us through the whole year, through Christmas, and Easter, and beyond,’” he continues. “Maybe this is a good reminder after so much loss, and so many questions about where God is in the midst of a pandemic, and where God is in the midst of racism or political division.’”
