NASHVILLE, TENN. (SEPTEMBER 25, 2020) Bowyer & Bow / Capitol Christian Music Group artist, Pat Barrett debuts his new single, "Heavenly," today. With this new uptempo song, Barrett delivers a joyful song that encourages the listener to focus on the eternal things like happiness, peace, hope and love. Following along the theme of the exuberant new single, he partnered with Brandon Carter to create a fun-filled animated video that even features narwhal cameos. Earlier this week, Barrett was joined by his friend and label mate Chris McClarney on the widely popular @WorshipFails Instagram for a live stream where he shared a sneak peak of the song and video. Today the full video debuts on YouTube, click below to see the whole video. 

 

"We wanted to make a video that was so filled with childlike joy, that we couldn’t help but smile while we watched it," shares Pat Barrett. "Joy is best realized not when we talk about it, but when we experience it, and we wanted to create a video that gave a taste of that. I honestly still can’t watch it without laughing. In life, there are so many things that are completely outside of our control. However, where we find our 'peace' and 'hope' and 'joy' are not one of them. We each get to decide that. In the greatest times of uncertainty, maybe...just maybe...that is the most powerful decision we can make. This song reminds me of that. And I hope it does for everyone who hears it as well."

 

If ever there was a time for a song like “Heavenly,” it is now. The lyrics encourage the listener to adjust his/her thinking and focus on the things that could never be taken away. Barrett's distinctive gift of marrying infectious hooks and melodies with timely emotive lyrics have propelled his songs to the top of radio charts as well as the global church. He currently has the top worship song in the world on the CCLI chart with the No. 1 single, "Build My Life," along with six other songs in the Top 500 including "Good Good Father." 

 

Throughout this year, Barrett has released three new songs, "Lightning," "No Weapon" and the current radio single, "Canvas & Clay." He is currently working on new music that will culminate into a new project in 2021.
