about

“True” is Jake’s first recording in two years. A self-proclaimed “prayer in the darkness”, this single is as heartbreaking as it is hopeful, and provides a lush sonic landscape from beginning to end. Bertrand’s vocals particularly shine here, and offer a poignant and simple message crucial to any journey of healing — you are loved.

Now available on digital and streaming platforms everywhere.

lyrics

TRUE:

I turned and walked away
Not by choice, forever changed
I always hoped and prayed
It would never end this way
My soul begged me to stay
But when rejection pushed me far away

I know I was loved by You

What am I supposed to do?
This broken road was all I knew
Forgiveness reigns inside
But God, help me to say goodbye
'Cause Your love never died
And You have never once left me behind

I know I was loved by You

And I'll sing hallelujah, 'cause Your love is true

I know I was loved by You
You never leave me
You are with me
I know I am loved by You
