Finding Courage Through Faith: The Story Behind 'Prayer' by Blessing Tangban


In this new release, “Prayer,” Blessing turns her struggles into a powerful declaration of faith. These lyrics are very personal and invite everyone to lean on God’s promises, and let Him turn their fears into victories.

Blessing Tangban - PrayerThe lyrics of “Prayer” are literally a prayer to God, which she wrote down, and she hopes that it will restore faith in her listeners to continue to be bold and trust in God during times of low light.

Blessing shares: “I was going through a time where I was struggling to believe that I would get a breakthrough in my life and music career. Things were so tough, rejections and setbacks everywhere I turned and this song just came to my spirit as a way of affirming my faith that I would get everything God has promised me and I would get a breakthrough no matter how negative things seemed to be looking on the outside. That’s why I called it prayer because it is quite literally a prayer I was making and it turned into a song. I had gotten many promises from people and life that fell through and I was just praying and affirming that God’s promises to me won’t return to him without fulfilling the purpose for which it was sent to me.”

Through every line, you are encouraged to cast your worries aside and embrace the strength we all may find by trusting the Lord’s promises, without any hesitation. May “Prayer” also be your reminder that in God, you will find an anchor, a stronghold that ensures you that you’re never alone in your battles. He never leaves your side!

(Related scripture: 1 Peter 5:7; Isaiah 55:11; 2 Chronicles 20:15)

What if worship wasn't just for mountaintop moments? Caleb Andrew's debut single, "Holy (In The Valley)," addresses this very question. Caleb shared that this song has been in the making for 10 years. What started as a chorus and bridge written during an intense encounter with God's presence has since grown into an anthem for his life.  God's holiness doesn't fade when our life grows heavy! In other words, our God not only meets us in triumph, He also walks with us through uncertainty. The lyrics declare, "You are holy // In the valley // You are holy," turning our gaze from circumstance to Him, our Lord. When Caleb sings, "There in my weakness // You see greatness," he captures the heart of persevering faith. This song empowers you to choose to worship Him, even before a breakthrough.
