'Breakthrough' The New Single From Upcoming UK Worship and Song-Writing Collective Taylor & Co Worship
‘Breakthrough’ is the title track of Taylor & Co’s EP, which is to be released later this year. The song was written by co-founder and worship leader, Lucy Taylor; produced by Franco Alani, featuring contributions from Joshua Taylor, Edward Westley and Anthony Parkes.
Lucy writes:
‘’Breakthrough’ was written over the course of a very difficult year in my life, I felt God put the word ‘Breakthrough’ on my heart but struggled to see where God was breaking through in my own adversity. The more I leaned into God, surrendering my own plans and ideals, the more He became clear to me and spoke to the depths of my soul. His faithfulness through my own trouble led to the precious and profound words in this song that caught me when I was falling and gave me strength to stand again.
‘You are strength in the silence,
You are light in the dark,
You are hope in the desert,
You’re restoring my heart.
I will sing in the valley,
For I am never alone,
For the God of the Breakthrough,
He has saved my soul!’
- Breakthrough
The heartfelt and honest nature of this song has already reached many people beyond the inner circle of our collective, and Franco Alani’s input has been pivotal to make my innermost thoughts a reality that can be shared with others; further emphasising the power of our God that becomes evident when we deepen our trust in His abundant faithfulness.’
‘Breakthrough’ was inspired by Psalm 40:1-3 that reads: ‘I waited patiently for the Lord; He inclined to me and heard my cry. He drew me up from the pit of destruction, out of the miry bog, and set my feet upon a rock, making my steps secure. He put a new song in my mouth, a song of praise to our God. Many will see and fear, and put their trust in the Lord’. The wider EP was built around this and accentuates the knowledge and understanding that God sees us, hears us and gives us the strength by His power to walk in His light.
‘Breakthrough’ will be available to download and stream on Thursday 25th July 2024
