Lauren, Amber & Kenna Share Eternal Belief with “Every Praise”
For their next Horizon Records single, the Southern Gospel trio of Lauren, Amber & Kenna - Lauren Talley, 11th Hour's Amber Eppinette Saunders and Kenna Turner West - serve up a stately anthem of eternal belief in "Every Praise."
"As a songwriter, there are songs that - as you co-write them - make you weep," says West of the number she penned with Michael Farren. "This is one of those songs for me. It was the last thing written for the project and is perhaps my favorite, because it speaks to the fundamentals of our faith."
Just as she notes, "Every Praise" is elemental in its message. West herself delivers its opening verse, set in hushed tones over simple piano accompaniment, before giving way to the trio's sweetly harmonized chorus:
For the Cross, the Blood, the blessed Resurrection
For the hope we have in this life and in Heaven
We'll spend every single grateful day
Giving You every praise
As the lead passes to Lauren for a second verse - and then, after a second chorus, to Amber - the backing grows ever stronger, magnifying "Every Praise"'s triumphant embrace of worship in the rise and fall of its bridge:
Every praise in the morning, every praise in the night
Every praise in the darkness of my battles that You fight
Every praise for the bondage-breaking power of Your love
Every praise for the glory of the Kingdom yet to come
and final choruses.
"We all have something to praise God for," Talley observes. "When I hear Amber sing the line, 'every praise in the darkness for my battles that You fight,' I think of the victories God has won in my own life, for me. I wouldn't be here singing this amazing song with my friends if God hadn't done what He does, over and over again. That's worth spending every single grateful day giving Him every praise."
