Ever Ancient, Ever New

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

Based on Colossians 1:16 and 1 Timothy 3:16, Isaac Watts proclaims the wonder of Christ’s two natures, fully God and fully man. From eternity, the Word existed with God and was God, the Creator and sustainer of all things. Yet in love, He took on flesh, humbling Himself to dwell among us.

This hymn marvels at that great mystery: the eternal Son clothed in clay, shining with truth and grace, drawing angels to awe and sinners to worship. The retuned melody seeks to carry the weight and wonder of these truths, helping us sing with reverence and joy of our Immanuel, God with us.

“Mortals with joy behold his face,
The eternal Father’s only Son!”

Glories of Immanuel

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.
