CCM EXCLUSIVE Music Video Premiere: Keith & Kristyn Getty ‘Pass the Promise’
Keith and Kristyn Getty release a new album, Confessio—Irish American Roots, tomorrow, Friday October 29th…but today CCM has the EXCLUSIVE Music Video Premiere of ‘Pass the Promise’ which is the lead single from the album.
Watch the video:
The album contains 13 songs filled with traditional Irish-melodies and instrumentation, brand-new songs as well as timeless hymns arranged with the signature sound that is only The Getty’s.
In 2020, Keith and Kristyn Getty traced their journey back to Northern Ireland and the Scots-Irish-American roots of their hymn writing. During this time, they had the chance to revisit with their daughters, the people and places, lessons and practices, hymns and folk tunes, melodies and poetry which are part of their beautiful heritage. They learned about their own history and how that music and faith heritage flowed to America and influenced church, folk and popular music alike.
That experience shaped the direction of, “Confessio—Irish American Roots.” The album features the lead track, “Pass The Promise” a new-anthem that is instantly singable, guest artists including Alison Krauss (“In Christ Alone”), Sandra McCracken (“All My Heart Rejoices” “Pass The Promise”), Kirk Whalum and Dana Masters (“Amazing Grace”), as well as classic well-known hymns that are all the soundtrack of the green hills of Ireland.
The first single, released September 10th, was the Getty’s new rendition of the timeless hymn, “It Is Well With My Soul.” The song is featured in the forthcoming film, Sabina: Tortured for Christ, the Nazi Years, which shares the inspiring, true story of Sabina (Oster) Wurmbrand and her husband Richard, who founded The Voice of the Martyrs (VOM), an interdenominational missions organization that serves persecuted Christians around the world.
This year the Getty’s are also celebrating the 20th Anniversary of the iconic hymn “In Christ Alone” and will once again be embarking on their annual highly-anticipated Christmas tour.
