Centricity Music singer, songwriter, and worship leader Patrick Mayberry's Psalm 23-inspired "Lead On Good Shepherd" featuring Zahriya Zachary has become his first No. 1 radio hit on the Mediabase Christian Audience Chart. The song from Mayberry's acclaimed, first full-length album, Wild Faith, was released to radio on August 4, 2023, and has since been a mainstay on radio and during his touring coast-to-coast across the US and beyond.
Produced by Mayberry and Jacob Arnold and written by Centricity Publishing's Mayberry, Paul Duncan, and Frankie Orella, "Lead On Good Shepherd" begins with a Grand Ole Opry-worthy spirit before morphing into a foot-stomping rock groove, turning the peaceful passage into a roaring celebration. Gathering airplay on 101 reporting stations and named by Amazon Music in its "Best of 2023: Christian" playlist, the single also includes a special version featuring Crowder.
"Psalm 23 always gets used as a comforting Scripture at funerals when I think it's just such a comforting verse for life. This Good Shepherd promises to walk alongside us every single step of the way--providing for us, protecting us, telling us to rest, leading us by still waters," Mayberry says. "God's track record has proven He's a good and faithful shepherd, so I'm going to keep following, step by step. I'm going to trust Him, so lead on, Good Shepherd."
Along with the single, Mayberry's Wild Faith welcomes everyone with untamed melodies and astute lyrics, all artfully crafted and intentionally threaded together to take listeners on a life-changing journey. With songs that can serve a Sunday worship service while also delving deeper into the human experience, the album encourages every sojourner with the truth that they're never alone.
Passionate about seeing people connect with the heart of God through music and corporate worship, Mayberry takes his new music and fan favorites on tour nationally. Joining Jeremy Camp last fall, he has also traveled across the country with Crowder, Cory Asbury, We The Kingdom, and more. On August 6, 2024, he will join Katy Nichole, Casting Crowns, Danny Gokey, Tasha Layton, and others for the KLOVE Live at Red Rocks event.
