“At the center of our redemption story stands the cross and in its shadow the countless souls that have been saved by the Savior that hung upon it. When I think about what that means for me personally, the reality than Jesus truly paid it all for me, I can’t help but worship and thank him. It’s my prayer that this song helps put words around your gratitude for the ultimate act of love and sacrifice Jesus embraced for you,” said Tauren.

His new music reflects this journey, incorporating deeply personal reflections on God’s grace and the profound peace found in surrender.
