Steven Curtis Chapman Drops Encouraging New Song and Video Today, “Don’t Lose Heart”

July 9, 2022

Multi-GRAMMY® Award-winning artist/songwriter Steven Curtis Chapman drops his latest single, “Don’t Lose Heart,” today (Provident/Sony Music). Click HERE to listen. Accompanied by a music video, which can be viewed HERE and below, the song follows the release of “Still,” which made its debut in May along with his announcement of re-signing with Provident Label Group.

As a core track on his upcoming project, the encouraging “Don’t Lose Heart” is a passionate anthem of hope, inspired by Chapman’s own journey through the shallowed valley of grief and loss that he and his family have traveled. “I’ve heard countless stories of others who’ve walked through their own deep dark valleys, and I feel like there are some things I can say from the perspective I have now,” he shares. “I’m deeply grateful for the opportunity to encourage others to not lose heart and to remind them that we’re gonna make it home…together!”

Steven Curtis Chapman has spent the last 35 years writing and performing genre-defining songs that shaped a generation. With 49 No. 1 singles in his catalog, he is the most awarded artist in Christian music history, winning 59 GMA Dove Awards, five GRAMMY Awards, an American Music Award, and selling more than eleven million albums with ten RIAA-Certified® Gold or Platinum albums. Chapman is synonymous with contemporary Christian music, which is one of the many reasons he was recently honored for his prolific musical career as a BMI Icon Award recipient. He is the first Christian songwriter honoree, joining the elite list of songwriters that includes Barry Manilow, Brian Wilson, Carole King, Dolly Parton, Kris Kristofferson, Merle Haggard, Sting, and others who have left an influence on generations of music makers and the music industry. Chapman was given the award last month at the 2022 BMI Christian Awards held in Nashville, Tennessee.

I think I was born with a pair of headphones attached to my head!

I have always loved radio and was introduced to Contemporary Christian Music when I was a lowly freshman in high school, way back in 1977! "Praise the Lord" by The Imperials, "Your Love Broke Through" by Keith Green and others were the first songs I heard and played over and over again!
