In her words “I am excited to share my very first song ‘Faithful’ with you. My journey has not always been an easy one. Through the toughest and darkest seasons of my life, God has displayed his faithfulness to me every single time. I found comfort, strength and purpose only because of God’s goodness. With only a few tunes on my mind, I started working on the ‘Faithful’ project in May 2019 in faith. As someone who aims for perfection, this was not the sequence I expected. I had imagined having the whole song finalized, before getting it recorded and produced.Before my summer holiday, I prayed to receive a full song. I was filled with excitement and gratitude that my prayer was answered.While on holiday, I started singing the first verse of ‘Faithful’ and the song was birthed in only a couple of minutes.I want this song to be your anthem through all life brings you. Proclaim God’s faithfulness over your life and remind yourself that He is faithful. I am sure that ‘Faithful’ will bless and encourage you.”
‘Faithful’ is a soothing and calm song with amazing instruments and breathtaking lyricsthat reflect how good and faithful our God is.

FAITHFUL- Lyrics
Verse 1
The sun surely shines behind the clouds.
Your unfailing love abounds for us.
The stars, they proclaim your greatness.
You are forever faithful God.
Chorus
You are forever faithful,
You are forever good,
There’s one thing I know for sure,
You’ll never change
Verse 2
In You I find the strength I need,
In You I find all hope.
My worth and life in Christ alone,
I am forever grateful God.
Chorus
You are forever faithful,
You are forever good,
There’s one thing I know for sure,
You’ll never change.
Bridge
Your promises are true,
Your promises still stand,
Your promises so true,
Your promises still stand.
Your promises are true,
(said I will never leave you)
Your promises to us,
(I’m right there by your side)
Your promises so true,
(through thick and thin)
Your promises still stand.
Chorus
You are forever faithful,
You are forever good,
There’s one thing I know for sure,
You’ll never change.
