NASHVILLE, Tenn.—An original collection of impassioned anthems created for corporate worship experiences as well as intimate moments of reflection, Lover Of My Soul, the latest recording from acclaimed singer/songwriter and worship leader Jasmine Brady, is slated for release May 10 from Regeneration Music Group.
Produced by Burton Gaar, Lover Of My Soul features 10 tracks hallmarked by direct, Spirit-filled lyrics and memorable, accessible melodies. Nine of the project’s selections were penned solely by Brady—a powerhouse vocalist who descends from Gospel music’s legendary Hemphill and Goodman families—while “Thank You Lord” was co-written by Brady and Jimmy Yeary (Tim McGraw, Rascal Flatts).
“As I watched the Asbury Revival unfold last year, I noticed they were singing simple songs that everyone knew,” Brady shares. “They didn’t need complicated lyrics because it was about the worship and not about the song. God began to stir my heart and give me ‘simple songs’ that didn’t take a lot of effort to memorize and could easily be sung in worship to Him.”
Album opener “Overflow” plots a joyful course for the modern worship set, exuding a palpable anticipation for the Holy Ghost’s movement. Additional highlights of Lover Of My Soul include the title-cut, a soaring anthem declaring the truths of Scripture; the country-tinged revival call of “The Spirit and The Bride”; and “Carry Me (Joshua’s Song),” a poignant ballad of hope and encouragement honoring the life of Brady’s late brother.
“With Lover Of My Soul, I felt impressed to write songs full of victory and hope,” Brady adds. “People are facing impossible situations and Jesus is the only answer. When others sing these songs, I want them to be reminded that God has already won our battles at the cross and no one loves us more than He does. As Psalm 23 reminds us, we may walk through the valley of the shadow of death, but we will fear no evil because He is with us! His love truly is unfailing and never-ending.”
Born into a rich musical lineage that influenced her own trajectory from an early age, Jasmine Christmas Brady is the daughter of beloved Gospel songstress Candy Hemphill Christmas; the granddaughter of Southern Gospel pioneers Joel and LaBreeska Hemphill; and the great-niece of genre icons Howard and Vestal Goodman of The Happy Goodmans. Brady appeared in various Gaither Homecoming and Homecoming Kids videos, and she went on to sing with Lee University’s world-renowned Voices of Lee ensemble. As a solo artist, her recordings include 2021’s Shalom and 2022’s Come Alive.
Brady spent a decade on staff at The Bridge—a multi-faceted ministry founded by her mother to serve the needs of Nashville’s homeless and underprivileged—and today she is the worship pastor at Regeneration Nashville, the congregation led by her father, Pastor Kent Christmas. Along with her music ministry, Brady speaks about the faithfulness of God at events around the country and hosts a Bible discussion podcast, Wholly Holy. She and her husband, JonMichael, live in Nashville with their son, Cooper, and daughters Adele and Mavis Bleue.
