Nashville, TN (July 28, 2021)
Rock & Roll Hall Of Fame inductee and Journey band member Jonathan Cain has released his first solo single of 2021, “Oh Lord Lead Us,” from Identity Records with The Fuel Music distribution.

Produced by Cain, mixed by David Kalmusky (Justin Bieber, The Fray, Keith Urban), mastered by GRAMMY Award-winning Adam Ayan (Paul McCartney, Carrie Underwood, Foo Fighters), and featuring Journey background vocalist Jason Derlatka lifting the chorus into the stratosphere, “Oh Lord Lead Us” was recorded at Cain’s state-of-the-art Addiction Sound Studios in Nashville with select parts done remotely due to the pandemic.

Leading worship weekly at his church, City Of Destiny, where his wife, Paula White-Cain, is the Senior Pastor, Cain was looking for a song to engage the congregation in the New Year. Taking a cue from 1 Chronicles 16:11, he began crafting the prayerful new single.

“Coming out of the Covid lockdown, I wanted to make a statement musically,” says Cain. “Being beaten down, closed up, and with churches shuttered by the quarantine lockdowns, it seemed to me that we needed to make ourselves brand new again. We needed something with a little joy in it…Covid was mentally really tough for a lot of people.” —Jonathan Cain
