Matt Maher - "Deliverer" (Official Lyric Video)
Music
Audio By Carbonatix
Written as a collaboration with the band NEEDTOBREATHE, Matt Maher's "Deliverer" offers a haunting verse and chorus that NEEDTOBREATHE lead singer Bear Rinehart wrote out of his own conversation and experience. The song looks into a life without fear because of total trust in God.
Here's the official lyric video.
Here are some reflections on the song that Matt shared with us:
This song's a very personal song for me. I've been a huge believer in the band NEEDTOBREATHE for a long time and their ability to create music that goes beyond the fringes of the church, so I was honored they were willing to offer this haunting verse and chorus to this song that Bear [Rinehart] wrote out of his own conversation and experience. Coupled with that, the bridge was inspired by my recent experience as a dad. My son, Conor, was struggling with being afraid of the dark. So I tried writing what might be the antithesis of what he was feeling, trying to imagine what it must be like to be a kid and to have those moments where literally there's no fear-just total trust. I've never worked harder to capture that kind of moment; one of a heart cry-that sense of liberation. This bridge is probably my favorite moment on the record.
