Ever Be Lyrics

Ever Be Song Chart

Redding, California based Bethel Church is a non-denominational place of worship with a vibrant music ministry. They have a division devoted to professional music production and have released a series of worship albums through its Bethel Music label.

This is a track from We Will Not Be Shaken, a collection of eleven original songs by different worship leaders recorded in late summer 2014 on a mountaintop north of Redding. The tunes were written from a place of reflecting on what it means to have unshakable faith in God with the intention of leading listeners to that place also. The record proved popular among the Christian community reaching the Top 10 of the mainstream US album chart.

This track was written and performed by Kalley Heiligenthal. She told the story of the song to NewReleaseTuesday : "The chorus of this song came first. I was in a prayer room setting for a two hour time frame, and after about an hour and a half we ran out of songs. I thought in that moment about finding a hook that was repeatable, and that's where the chorus came from. The bridge came with relative ease."

"The verses are where you'll find a lot of personal diving into my heart to set the stage for the rest of the song. The beautiful aspect of this song is that I was being coached on how to write the verses based on the question why to the statement 'Your praise will ever be on my lips.' For me, it was a beautiful process of learning what the answers were."

"Most of us have many examples of God's faithfulness, His character, His nature and goodness to draw from. For me, it is highly emotional and very deep, but I didn't know how to put it into words and express it. The journey of writing the song was teasing it out and finding out what was inside of me, which involved me creating my story in the song."

"I joke that I have an "Ever Be" journal which is a full notebook of me processing out why I have this call to constant worship and why is He worthy. We all know why, but I was allowing it to get fiercely personal, and the words and the story and my history with God gripped my heart and caused me to try to describe our infinite God with my finite words."

This was covered by Natalie Grant for her Be One album. Grant's version of the worship song features vocals from her three daughters: 8-year-old twins Grace and Bella and 4-year-old Sadie.
