NEW FOR 2025 SEASON
HOMECOMING - "EMMANUEL" (Available Now)
"EMMANUEL" tells the Christmas story through the eyes of those who witnessed it--light breaking into darkness, angels declaring hope, and a mother holding the Savior. HOMECOMING wrote it to remind listeners that God with us is not just a past event, but a present reality. It is a song for the church to sing of wonder and worship this Christmas.
Presence Music feat. Blake Whiteley - "Who Knew (Gift Wrapped)" (Available Now)
"Who Knew (Gift Wrapped)" by Presence Music Band and Blake Whiteley connects Christmas directly to the cross. More than a celebration of the manger, it's a reminder of why Jesus came--to rescue humanity. With fresh verses and bold production, the track declares that the greatest gift wasn't under a tree, but on a cross. Blending Christmas worship and hip-hop energy, this powerful anthem points to grace as the plan from the beginning.
Niki Lou Savich - "Frozen Tears" (Release Date: Available Now)
"Frozen Tears," the fourth single from Niki Lou Savich's upcoming album, My Offering, reveals a side of Christmas we rarely consider. With mesmerizing music and somber lyrics, it portrays the suffering of the world and humanity's deep need for a Savior. Unlike the usual joyful holiday songs, "Frozen Tears" strikes a profound chord, reminding us of the true purpose of the Christ Child's birth and the hope He brought into a broken world.
JAZLYN - "This Christmas With You" (Release Date: 11/14/25)
JAZLYN's original "This Christmas With You" celebrates the true gift of being with those we love, not what's under the tree as she celebrates the love, reflection, and gratitude that make the season special.
Ezra Worship Initiative - "Emmanuel, God's Gift Of Love" (Release Date: 11/14/25)
"Emmanuel, God's Gift of Love" celebrates the miracle of the incarnation--God taking on flesh to dwell among us. Inspired by John 3:16, it moves from manger to cross, reflecting on the depth of His love and redemption. Chosen as the focus track of Ezra Worship Initiative's Christmas EP, it captures the heart of the season: God with us. A song for both corporate worship and personal reflection, declaring that love Himself has come near.
Jay Davids - "What Child Is This" (Release Date: 11/28/25)
Jay Davids brings new life to the timeless classic "What Child Is This" with a joyful and soulful twist. Capturing the wonder of God stepping into the world, Davids transforms the sacred message into a celebration--full of rhythm, movement, and warmth. His fresh approach reminds listeners that worship doesn't always have to be quiet or polished; sometimes, it sounds like a smile, a groove, and a reason to move your feet.
2024 SEASON
Ezra Worship Initiative - Hope From Heaven (EP)
Ezra Worship Initiative adds three original tracks to the Christmas canon, with the title track, "Hope From Heaven," taking center stage. Written by George Godwin and John Chisum, this worshipful anthem reflects on the joy and promise of Christ's advent. Its singable melody and profound lyrics--Hope from heaven born that night/Jesus Christ the world's true light--make it a destined classic for Christmas playlists and worship services alike.
Anya Lee - "One Wish" (Single)
Anya Lee brings her soulful touch to Whitney Houston's Christmas classic, "One Wish." In this jazz-infused rendition, Lee's expressive vocals and intricate guitar arrangements evoke a heartfelt prayer for unity and hope. This beautifully produced track offers a refreshing take on a beloved holiday gem, embodying the spirit of the season.
Presence Music Band - "Who Knew" (Single)
Presence Music Band delivers a thought-provoking single that reflects on the incredible gift of grace through Jesus' birth. "Who Knew" invites listeners to pause and consider the true meaning of Christmas, celebrating the sacrifice and love that began with a baby in a manger. This track is a poignant reminder for all who seek to connect with the Gospel during the holiday season.
John Chisum - "God With Us" (Single)
John Chisum's "God With Us (Love In Us)" reimagines the Gospel story through the lens of Christmas, offering a moving contemporary ballad that resonates deeply. With heartfelt lyrics and a melody reminiscent of Andrew Peterson and Steven Curtis Chapman, Chisum emphasizes the profound truth of God's presence in every season, particularly during the holidays.
NCS Collective feat. John Chisum - "Christmas Can't Be Christmas Without You" (Single)
"Christmas Can't Be Christmas Without You" is a poignant ballad that juxtaposes the busyness of the season with the absence of its true meaning--Christ. Co-written by John Chisum and Bonnie J. Barbey, the song's tender lyrics remind listeners that Christmas without Jesus is just another holiday. Fans of Newsong and Brandon Heath will find this track a stirring addition to their seasonal favorites.
These Christmas releases showcase the diverse creativity and heart of NRT Music's artists, each offering a unique perspective on the Christmas story. Whether through pop, rap, jazz, worship, ballads, or reflections, these songs will inspire listeners to celebrate the true reason for the season.
