South Africa's Stefan Green Releasing New Single 'I Love the Cross'
Stefan Green, from Cape Town, South Africa, releases his new single 'I Love the Cross' on 17 Feb 2023.
"The cross evokes a variety of emotions, some joyful and some overwhelming. Whether we have looked to the cross for hope in the past or seen it as a weapon of destruction, there is a hope that is supposed to emerge with it that reminds us that pain and death may take over, but resurrection is technically ours to claim.
There’s a love that should accompany the cross, not many have felt this in its fullness but it doesn’t take away from the truth of the hope it holds. My hope with this song is that you may either find further delight in the cross or rekindle a love for it as you let go of the pain its association has caused. Imagine humanity with a fresh love and understanding of the cross? So much could be different if we allowed space for it. May this song symbolize a renewed sense of trust, hope and healing."
Stefan has a passion for community and creativity. His creative expression flows out on a global scale through his song writing, worship leading and church development. One of his great ambitions is to equip churches in finding their own sound, developing community within their creative teams and reaching a level of excellence with their worship. The last ten years have involved songs and publications with writers across the world. He aspires to spread a greater degree of hope, joy and peace with his music.
He has co-written songs such as ‘Grateful’ & ‘I can’t believe’ with elevation worship, attracting millions of views on Youtube alone. Contributing to a GMA Dove Award Worship Album nomination with Songs on 'Here As In Heaven' and 'There is a Cloud'. Stefan is signed as a songwriter to SHOUT! Music Publishing Australia.
