Part one of his new album, Order, released just over a year ago, features the Top 10 Billboard Christian AC chart radio hit "I'm Gonna Let It Go" and explores topics "when things are more or less going the way you hope."
Part two, Disorder, released March 20, features the Top 20 Billboard AC Indicator chart hit single "Remind Me You're Here" and is a group of honest, transformative songs about when order falls apart.
The final chapter of Gray's new album, Reorder, released October 9 and features the hopeful declaration "Right on Time" and the radio single "Glory Days," and is about coming out the other side of our hardship "as wiser, stronger, more humble and compassionate versions of ourselves."
Now, for the first time, all three parts combine for a listening journey unlike anything else.

Jason Gray’s Best Album| Posted October 15, 2020 What You Need to Know Ever since I heard Jason Gray's "Blessed Be," from his album, All the Lovely Losers, I was hooked by the emotional and biblical messages of his songs. I'm always excited to hear new music from Jason. Last year, Jason released his EP, Order, the first of three EPs Jason Gray has released over a year’s time, mirroring the themes of the pandemic in many ways. The names of each EP are "Order," "Disorder," and "Reorder." Jason tells a story of the process of transformation in three volumes. Order featured the hit songs, "I'm Gonna Let it Go" and "Order Disorder Reorder." Disorder EP was preceded by the hit song, “Remind Me You’re Here.” Now, Reorder EP has released and was preceded by the hit song, “Glory Days” in conjunction with this full album release, Order, Disorder, Reorder. Jason Gray is an anointed songwriter and singer. He has a profound way of piercing my soul with his poignant words, tender singing, and inspirational truths. Like his previous releases, the album's central theme is about finding our identity in Christ, being honest and transparent with ourselves and others to allow God's grace to shine in our lives by demonstrating how in our weakness, His strength is made perfect.
What it Sounds Like Gray can really write a hooky and truth-filled chorus and the single “Remind Me You’re Here” is catchy, relevant and worshipful like his previous hit songs “Remind Me Who I Am” and "Learning." The song is a great confession of faith. “Glory Days” is a gorgeous offering of praise to the only One who has power to save. It is a very sing-able song, and I love singing the joyful lyrics, “The hard times are where You get the best of me/Yeah, this is where we turn the corner/I’m becoming more than I ever dreamed/In the glory days of my reorder.” “Honesty” features Jason’s tender and powerful vocals and takes listeners on an emotional and spiritual journey like his heart-wrenching song, “Not Right Now.” Every lyric is sung about faith in our God Almighty sprinkled in with Jason’s clever and personal lyrics taking listeners on an emotional journey. If you’ve always liked Jason Gray’s brand of “gourmet” songs, this album will absolutely connect with you.
Spiritual Highlights “Fight For You” reminds us, “The Lord will fight for you, You need only to be still, trust that God will fight for you.” Other spiritual highlights include “I'm Gonna Let It Go,” “Through,” “Remind Me You’re Here,” and “Glory Days.” “I'm Gonna Let It Go” gives me more conviction to not feel worthless or afraid. With many areas in our lives, we spend a lot of time worrying. We need to let that go and allow the Lord to be our redeemer. We all have lies that we believe about ourselves. Be free from those doubts about yourself. And sing, “Oh, 'cause if I trusted, I could move with Your flow/Being carried in the current of Your love/When I lean into Your arms, You're enough/So, I'm gonna let it, I'm gonna let it go.” Like previous Jason Gray albums, these songs are all filled with spiritual truth. The hope of the Gospel is heard loud and clear. “What the Hard Times Taught Me” ties the album’s theme of God’s never-ending faithfulness, grace and hope in the hard times that runs through the album.
Best Song on the Record I'm really engaged by the emotional vocals and the deep, prayerful lyrics throughout the album. "Order Disorder Reorder" is a great reminder that our circumstances do not define our joy. Our position in Christ and His unending faithfulness is worthy of our gratitude and adoration. This song gives me more conviction to not feel worthless or afraid. With many areas in our lives, we spend a lot of time worrying. So, let your worries go. Let the Lord be your redeemer. Those prayerful words capture the hopeful tone for these songs that are filled with the truth of God’s unending grace in our disorder. “Through” is an especially beautiful song. The faith anthem is the cry of my heart, “I can’t keep pretending everything’s okay, I need You to lead me through.” There are several stand-out songs, and my favorite song “Remind Me You’re Here” is a gorgeous offering of praise to the only One who has power to save. It is a very sing-able song, and I love singing the Book of Job-inspired introspective lyrics, “I won't ask You for reasons, 'Cause a reason can't wipe away tears, No, I don't need all the answers, Just be here beside me, Father, remind me You're here.”
Final Word With a probing spiritual curiosity and imaginative, self-examining lyrics, this album once again solidifies Gray’s place among the finest song crafters of his day. Gray’s poignant songwriting is coupled with musical excellence as each song urges me to better see God. This album is sure to connect with all listeners who like catchy songs filled with truth and yearning for God. Jason invites you into his life in such an authentic and relatable way, you’ll feel like you are a lifelong friend after you hear this album. Once again, Jason has invited listeners into his story of faith. Each song features his unique brand of lyrical phrasing, embedded with the truth of the Gospel for those "with ears to hear." Jason is one of my favorite Christian music singer-songwriters. His songs are so emotional, vulnerable and authentic. If you like singer-songwriters who wear their hearts on their sleeves and sing about the truth of what it means to walk with God and work out their salvation with fear and trembling, then don't miss out on one of Christian music's most treasured artists. Order, Disorder, Reorder is Jason Gray’s best album and one of my top albums of the year.
Best Album of 2020| Posted September 13, 2022
Jason Gray has made one of the best albums ever! The setup is brilliant. The lyrics, the instrumentation, the vocals. It's absolutely amazing. Easily the best album of 2020. How it wasn't nominated at the Dove Awards, I have no idea. Very few albums could top this one.
