What does it sound like when God sings? Roma Waterman’s new album, When God Sings, is an exploration of that mystery — a sonic pilgrimage that invites the listener to hear heaven’s melody echo through the heart. Each track is both prayer and prophecy: songs birthed in the secret place and captured in live moments of worship where the boundary between earth and eternity grows thin. Blending cinematic piano, ethereal vocals, and ambient soundscapes, When God Sings traces the journey of the worshipper who first sings a prayer to God — and then begins to hear Him sing back. The result is an atmosphere that feels both intimate and expansive, contemplative yet charged with divine presence. Roma Waterman is an Australian worship leader, songwriter, and teacher whose ministry spans more than three decades. Known for merging prophetic expression with theological depth, she has trained worship teams and songwriters around the world and founded creative, prophetic communities devoted to helping believers encounter God through artistry and stillness and theology. Her music carries the same heartbeat as her teaching: to make space for people to be transformed by the presence of God. Roma has spent decades shaping the sound of worship and creativity in her life. In recent decades this has been in the quiet, tucked away in her prayer room. In her past, she has been a session vocalist for various TV shows, and a vocal coach for artists on The X Factor and Australian Idol, and she also founded the renowned Melbourne Gospel Choir. Her songs and books have received multiple awards, and through her online communities and podcast, she has taught thousands around the world how to hear God’s voice and engage deeply with Scripture. In a noisy world, Roma’s music calls us back to the quiet — to the place where heaven’s song can be heard again. It is worship as dialogue, sound as sanctuary, and a tender reminder that before we ever sang to Him, He was, and is, already singing over us.
