Ancient truth. Fresh sound.

Old Paths, New Voices is a journey through the rich heritage of hymnody—where timeless lyrics meet a tapestry of modern musical styles. From quiet piano meditations to stripped-down folk, from soulful harmonies to subtle hints of alternative flair, Memom & The Punk Monkeys breathe new life into old words without losing their depth or dignity.

These are not rewrites. The lyrics remain untouched—rich with theology, reverence, and gospel hope. But the music offers a new invitation: to hear these songs again, to feel their weight anew, and to be stirred by the same Spirit who inspired them generations ago.

Old truths never grow stale. They just need to be sung again.

Old Paths, New Voices

A quiet hymn with eternal weight.

This is a meditative, piano-backed arrangement of Isaac Watts’ powerful reflection on God’s infinite greatness and our humble place before Him. Memom & The Punk Monkeys offer a simple, reverent interpretation, letting the timeless words speak clearly and worshipfully.

Originally penned in 1707, “Great God, How Infinite Art Thou” reminds us that while our lives are fleeting, God’s glory is beyond measure, His throne eternal.

Artist: Memom & The Punk Monkeys

This isn’t your grandpa’s hymn, or maybe it is, just with a steel guitar and a heartbeat that echoes eternity. In this modern country cover of Isaac Watts' The Eternity of God, we’ve taken ancient words and set them to a reverent, rootsy melody that honors their weight without dressing them in denim too tight.

Watts wrote from a deep place of awe, marveling at the eternal nature of God long before the modern world lost its wonder. We aim to bring some of that wonder back. with warm harmonies, honest instrumentation, and a tempo that lets the truth breathe.

"He fills his own immortal NOW." That line alone makes you want to set your phone down and lift your eyes up.

Recorded with respect. Sung with conviction. Played with grit and grace.

Endless Day

Originally penned by R. Burnham and rooted in the unshakable truths of Scripture, The Power of God has been reimagined here as a soaring power ballad, rich with conviction, bold melody lines, and lyrics that go to war with fear and hell itself.

Every line is a declaration: God is our strength. Christ has conquered. And the redeemed can rise, not by grit, but by grace. From trembling saints to triumphant praise, this hymn traces the arc of gospel power with every note.

Turn it up. Let your heart be lifted. And let the victories of the Lamb ring loud in your soul.

Triumph In the Power of God

He reigns and now He reigns to a beat.

In this high-energy rework of Isaac Watts' 18th-century hymn, The Sovereignty of God, Memom & The Punk Monkeys bring deep doctrine to the dance floor. Inspired by Job 23:13 and Romans 9:15–18, this track takes the timeless truths of divine rule, providence, and grace and infuses them with driving synths, cinematic drops, and a rhythm that won’t let go.

Watts' haunting poetry meets modern production in a reverent rave of worship. Every beat pulses with providence. Every lyric is a reminder: God does not ask permission to be God.

🎧 For those who want their theology loud, clear, and impossible not to move to.

Key Verses:
Job 23:13 – “But he is unchangeable, and who can turn him back? What he desires, that he does.”
Romans 9:18 – “So then he has mercy on whomever he wills, and he hardens whomever he wills.”

Lyrics: Isaac Watts

The Book Of Life

This powerful hymn by Isaac Watts opens a window into the mind of God, as revealed in the gospel. With poetic brilliance and theological precision, Watts draws us into the majesty of divine wisdom, not hidden in mysticism or philosophy, but shining clearly in the person and work of Jesus Christ.

From the Father’s invitation in stanza one to the angelic awe of stanza two, each verse pulls back the veil on eternal truths once hidden, now made known. The gospel becomes the grand theater of God’s wisdom where justice and mercy meet, where the Law bows before Christ, and where grace radiates in every direction.

Verse by verse, we’re reminded that God’s wisdom isn’t merely abstract or academic, it’s deeply personal, sacrificial, and glorious. His revenging justice is satisfied in Christ’s blood, but it’s the “lustre of thy grace” that captures our hearts and stirs our joy.

Boundless Love and Glories

This stirring hymn by Benjamin Beddome, The Wisdom and Knowledge of God (inspired by Psalm 139), leads the listener to bow low before the majesty of God's omniscience and sovereign rule. With poetic depth and theological precision, Beddome declares that nothing escapes the Lord’s gaze no shadow too dark, no thought too swift. Even when His ways are hidden behind a veil of providence, His throne is never propped up by chaos or chance, but by perfect justice and truth.

Each verse drives us deeper into reverent trust: God is not absent in our confusion He is at work in it. And though His methods may confound us, His character never will. For those who belong to Him, His every decree, even the painful ones, is ultimately for our good and His glory.

Let this hymn be both a meditation and a prayer: that we, like the psalmist, would wait in humble submission, trusting not in what we see but in the unshakable wisdom of the One who rules heaven, earth, and our hearts.

“Wait, then, my soul, submissive wait... Trust in a wise and gracious God.”

Trust In A Wise God

This hymn by Samuel Medley is a timeless reminder that behind every trial, every unanswered question, and every tear is a God who is both infinitely wise and endlessly kind. Anchored in the truth of Exodus 34:6, the refrain "Too wise to be mistaken, too good to be unkind" rings out as both confession and comfort for the weary soul.

Medley’s words wrestle honestly with the hiddenness of God’s providence, yet they never fall into despair. When afflictions weigh heavy or Satan whispers lies, the believer is called back to trust in the unchanging character of God. Even when we cannot trace His hand, we can trust His heart.

This hymn isn’t light and fluffy, it’s forged in the fire of suffering, but it shines with gospel hope. Each stanza walks through life’s valleys with a steady step, fixing the eyes of faith on a sovereign and compassionate God who does not err, forget, or fail. And one day, when all is revealed, we’ll echo the same refrain in heaven's clear light: “He was too wise to err, and O, too good to be unkind.”

Too Wise to Be Mistaken

In this reverent and weighty hymn, Benjamin Beddome lifts a trembling voice to honor the God who is both perfectly just and gloriously good. Rooted in Deuteronomy 32:4, "The Rock, his work is perfect, for all his ways are justice", this hymn draws the worshiper into the vast and sobering landscape of divine sovereignty.

Beddome does not shy away from the full counsel of God. He sings of ancient decrees and eternal destinies, of heaven’s joy and hell’s sorrow, of wounds that humble and grace that heals. God's justice is no cold doctrine here, it is the backdrop that makes His mercy all the more astonishing. His goodness is no sentimental gloss, but the solid comfort of a soul that sees both the rod and the smile as coming from the same faithful hand.

This is worship that doesn’t flinch, it bows low, sings high, and takes God at His Word. And though the tongue may tremble, the heart is steadied by the truth: God’s justice never falters, and His goodness never fails.

My Maker and My King

Samuel Medley’s The Loving-Kindness of God is a soaring anthem of gratitude, anchored in the rich truth of Psalm 36:7 “How precious is your steadfast love, O God!” This hymn is no mere theological exercise; it’s the overflowing testimony of a soul rescued, upheld, and eternally secure.

From the ruin of the fall to the rapture of heaven, Medley traces the believer’s journey, and in every season, one thread holds fast: the unchanging, undeserved, unstoppable loving-kindness of the Lord. When enemies rage or storms roar, His kindness holds. When sin entices and the heart wanders, His mercy remains. And even when breath fails and the shadow of death draws near, the believer will not be silenced, he will sing still.

Each stanza brims with gospel wonder and personal awe. This isn’t sentimental fluff. It’s strong theology put to joyful music. God’s covenant love set to a melody that’s meant to be sung loud and long. It lifts our eyes beyond our failures and fears to the One who “loved us notwithstanding all.”

So go ahead, let your soul awaken in joyful lays. His loving-kindness is too free, too great, too strong, and too glorious not to sing.

His Lovingkindness

J. Kent’s The Everlasting Love of God is a hymn that pulls back the curtain on eternity and invites the believer to marvel. Rooted in Jeremiah 31:3 and Ephesians 2:4-5, it sets before us a love that didn’t begin when we believed, but before the foundation of the world. This isn’t the sentimental love of modern choruses; this is the covenantal, sovereign, electing love of a holy God.

With poetic precision, Kent walks us through the glorious mystery of union with Christ before time began. In the eternal mind of God, the Church was already beloved; Christ and His bride viewed as one. Her sins would become His burden; His righteousness would become her robe. It's deep theology set to doxology.

And this love doesn’t fade when met with human filth. Ten thousand sins “as black as hell” are swallowed up in this great and free love. Even the vilest rebel, once at war with heaven, finds grace abounding here. The final stanza thunders with gospel assurance: salvation is free from first to last, and that kind of love demands an everlasting song.

This is a hymn for those who want to sing from the depths; deep truths, deep gratitude, and a love that goes deeper still.

Everlasting Love of God

Ever catch your dad elbow-deep in cookies at midnight wearing a beard made of dental floss? “Uh… Santa?” is a playful Christmas ballad that captures the wide-eyed wonder (and suspicion) of a kid on Christmas Eve who’s not quite buying what he's seeing, but then again, maybe he should.

Told in rhyme with all the charm of a holiday bedtime story and the punchlines of a good stand-up set, this song takes you from cozy cocoa vibes to full-on sleigh-spotting madness.

Mr. Fudgesickle is a whimsical winter waltz dipped in nostalgia and sprinkled with sugar. With a candy cane tie, a taffy top hat, and a laugh as warm as a cup of cocoa, this jolly fellow slides straight out of a child's daydream and into a snow-covered songscape.

Blending playful rhymes with just the right touch of seasonal magic, this tune captures the joy of childhood winters—snowball fights, sugary stories, and the fleeting wonder of a fudge-made friend who dances just as the snow begins to fall. As the sun rises and Mr. Fudgesickle waves farewell, his message lingers sweetly: joy doesn’t melt, it waits to return.

With choruses that jingle and verses that glow like gumdrops in the snow, this song is perfect for snowy mornings, cocoa nights, or any time the world needs a little more whimsy. It’s part holiday memory, part bedtime fairytale, and 100% delightful.

So gather ‘round, young and old, and remember: when the flakes start to fall and the cocoa starts to steam… listen closely. Mr. Fudgesickle might just be on his way back to town.

Mr. Fudgesickle

“Satan Be Sataning Like Satan Does” pulls no punches. It’s raw, real, and rooted in the battlefield of everyday spiritual warfare. With bold lyrics and a steady beat, this anthem calls out the reality of the enemy’s schemes—deception, fear, temptation—and points straight to the only true victory: Jesus Christ.

This isn’t your grandma’s hymn (though she'd probably nod in agreement). It’s a gritty, honest cry from the trenches. Satan does what Satan does—but the believer doesn’t cower. We rise. We fight. We overcome—not by our strength, but by the blood of the Lamb and the Word of truth.

Each verse walks through the fog of the fight, but never without light. The chorus rings out with defiant hope: “With Jesus our rock, we will overcome.” And that’s the heartbeat of this song. It reminds weary saints that though the enemy prowls, his power is limited—and our Savior is not.

So whether you’re in the heat of battle or helping someone hold the line, blast this loud. This is the soundtrack for standing firm. For walking in freedom. For remembering that no matter how hard the enemy presses—Jesus has already won.

A hymn forged in the fires of eternity, now unleashed with the full force of metal. J. Stocker’s 18th-century text roars with timeless truth; God’s mercy in Christ is our only boast, our song, our life.

This track takes the rich theology of the hymn and drives it with heavy riffs, thunderous drums, and vocals that echo both the agony of the cross and the triumph of grace. From the opening cry of mercy to the closing praise of Father, Son, and Spirit, this is doxology at full volume.

 Lyrics proclaim: mercy that rescues from hell, grace that revives the weary, love that keeps sinners alive, and a covenant sealed by the Spirit.

For those who want their theology loud, their worship raw, and their hope unshakable; this is mercy set to metal.

Thy Mercy My God

This is a fresh retuning of R. Burnham’s hymn “The All-Sufficient Mercy of God” (based on Psalm 89:28). Originally written in the 18th century, the text is a rich meditation on God’s unfailing mercy—mercy that forgives, heals, upholds, and leads us home to glory.

The new melody seeks to give voice to these timeless words in a way that is singable for the church today while retaining the weight and beauty of the original hymn.

May this song help you lift your eyes to the Savior, who is rich in mercy and steadfast in love.

Key Themes:
– The eternal reign of God’s mercy
– Mercy in conversion, forgiveness, and healing
– Mercy in suffering and perseverance
– The triumph of mercy that brings us to glory

"My steadfast love I will keep for him forever, and my covenant will stand firm for him." – Psalm 89:2

Infinite Mercy

This is a fresh retuned version of J. Hart’s timeless hymn “The Everlasting Mercy of God” (based on Psalm 136; 100:5). The lyrics highlight God’s unchanging mercy, the power of Christ’s blood, and the hope believers have in His steadfast love.

The hymn reminds us that even when we have sinned deeply, God’s mercy is not shaken—His favor stands because we have been bought with the blood of Christ. It is a testimony that no matter our failures, we have in Him a never-changing Friend when all others fail.

May this retuned setting help both old and new generations sing of the mercy that endures forever.

God's Mercy Is Forever Sure

This is a fresh retuning of Isaac Watts’ hymn Faithfulness of God (Numb. 23:19; Psalm 89:1–8). Watts’ timeless text calls believers to proclaim the steadfast faithfulness, power, and saving promises of our eternal King. The hymn points us to the unshakable truth that every word from God’s mouth is as sure as the heavens He created.

Our retuned version seeks to carry these weighty lyrics into a new musical setting, helping modern ears and voices rejoice in the same ancient truths. May this melody lift your heart to sing of the God whose promises never fail and whose salvation is written with an immortal pen.

“His every word of grace is strong as that which built the skies.”

Mighty Works of Our King

This retuned hymn draws from the timeless words of Isaac Watts and J. Needham, echoing Psalm 111:9 and 145:17. It lifts our eyes to the majesty of the eternal God—holy beyond comparison, radiant above angels, and righteous in all His ways.

The text reminds us that only those who are clothed in Christ may draw near, finding joy in His presence and worshiping at His feet forever. With a fresh melody carrying the weight of these profound lyrics, this retuning seeks to help the church sing again of the incomparable holiness of our Lord.

"Holy, holy, holy Lord, in glory evermore."

Holy Is He In All His Works

This retuned hymn by R. Burnham is drawn from the rich testimony of Scripture—Leviticus 19:2, 1 Samuel 2:2, and Hebrews 12:14—declaring that our God is holy and that His people are called to share in His holiness.

The text beautifully unfolds the work of the Trinity: the Father giving His holy Son, the Son shedding His blood for sinners, and the Spirit applying grace to make God’s children holy. It captures both the struggle and delight of believers who long to grow in holiness while walking this earthly life, led by the Spirit and cleansed by Christ’s blood.

With a new melody to carry its timeless words, this retuning seeks to help God’s people sing with joy of His holiness and the sanctifying work He is accomplishing in us.

"The Father is a holy God; His holy Son He gave."

Holiness to Feel

This retuned hymn, Harmony of the Perfections of God by W. Tucker (Rom. 3:26), sets to new music a text rich with gospel truth. Tucker marvels at the wonder of God’s plan of salvation, where His perfections—wisdom, justice, mercy, and love—converge in Christ. At the cross, justice receives its due, mercy reigns over the guilty, and love shines beyond conception.

The new melody is meant to help today’s church sing with fresh joy and awe over these timeless truths. Angels themselves stoop to gaze at the mystery, and we are invited to join the song: Christ is both the sacrifice that satisfies justice and the mercy-seat for sinners.

“Yes, mercy reigns, and justice too; in Christ they both harmonious meet.”

Mercy Reigns

This retuned hymn draws from Isaac Watts’ meditation on 2 Corinthians 4:6—“For God, who said, ‘Let light shine out of darkness,’ has shone in our hearts to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ.”

Watts lifts our eyes to the surpassing brightness of Christ, in whom God’s glory and grace are revealed most clearly. Creation testifies to His wisdom and power, but in the face of Jesus we behold the greater wonder: redeeming love. This new melody is written to help the church sing with fresh joy the eternal praise of Christ, our Savior and King.

Hosanna to the eternal name—let every tongue proclaim His boundless love!

Awake My Soul

Drawn from Revelation 5:6–12, this hymn by Isaac Watts gives voice to the heavenly chorus that exalts Christ, the Lamb who was slain and now reigns. With imagery of harps, incense, and the prayers of the saints, Watts leads us into the throne room of God, where worship never ceases.

The song celebrates Christ’s redeeming work—His blood has purchased people for God, set captives free, and made them kings and priests who will reign with Him forever. The retuned melody is crafted to carry these eternal themes with strength and beauty, lifting our hearts to join in the “new song” of heaven:

“Now to the Lamb that once was slain,
Be endless blessings paid!”

We Shall Reign With Thee

When the band first formed in the cellar of McPhilbob’s parents’ home, they had no idea what they were getting themselves into.  They believed that nothing happens by chance and that God had given them a soapbox for a reason to impact the lives of people around the world.  Above all, their ultimate goal was to glorify God in everything that they do.  They believed that they are the greatest band of all time because they represent the greatest of all time, Jesus Christ.
