John Chisum Releases New Worship Track, 'Father'
Internationally respected worship leader, recording artist, and mentor John Chisum returns with a deeply personal new single, "Father," releasing today on NRT Music. The track follows his recent single "White Flag," which earned a featured spot on Apple Music's "What's New in Christian Pop," and continues to showcase Chisum's signature blend of intimate vocals, thoughtful lyrics, and warm, creative, worshipful melodies.
Co-written with long-time collaborator Bonnie J. Barbey and published by Donnaluv Music/ASCAP and Bonnie J. Barbey Music/ASCAP, "Father" is a beautifully simple yet theologically rich reflection on God's nearness and unfailing love. Anchored by lyrics like "Ever present, ever near / Ever hearing every prayer," the song draws listeners into a moment of rest and reassurance, offering a powerful reminder of God's gentleness and faithfulness.
"Father" marks yet another creative milestone for Chisum, whose legacy spans over four decades of ministry and songwriting. Once a prominent executive at Integrity Music and a worship leader on beloved Hosanna! Music albums like Firm Foundation and Come Expecting Jesus, Chisum is now the President of Nashville Christian Songwriters, helping to empower a new generation of artists.
This new release further cements Chisum's place not only as a trusted voice from the past but as an active, relevant creator in today's worship and CCM landscape. Fans old and new will find "Father" a resonant addition to their playlists–an anthem for both private devotion and corporate worship.
