Singer/Songwriter Jon Shabaglian Releases New Single ‘Adonai’

NASHVILLE, Tenn.
Founder of the California-based worship leader training initiative Psalmist Mission, as well as an acclaimed singer/songwriter, pastor and worship leader in his own right, Jon Shabaglian returns with the timely new single “Adonai.” Produced by Sam Hart (Tasha Layton, Aaron Shust) and co-penned by Shabaglian and Hart along with multi-Dove Award winner Steven V. Taylor and recording artist and author Tailah Scroggins, the powerful worship anthem is now available on streaming platforms. Shabaglian is also set to debut the song live in Jerusalem during this month’s All Nations Convocation.

“Adonai” showcases Shabaglian’s impassioned lead vocals backed by a choir of Psalmist Mission graduates. The stirring recording offers a potent reminder of God’s ever-present help in times of trouble, and Shabaglian hopes the message of “Adonai” can become a vehicle for deliverance and unity around the world.

“The song was initially birthed in response to a friend who was hurting,” he explains of “Adonai.” “My co-writers and I were compelled to create a song that could be a tool for the Body of Christ—a song for Believers to sing and pray over their friends and loved ones who need deliverance. The verses are rooted in Deuteronomy 7, telling of God’s faithfulness to His people, and the chorus and bridge proclaim the freedom we have in Jesus.”

“Six months after we wrote ‘Adonai,’ the Hamas terrorist attack happened, catapulting Israel and the Middle East into turmoil,” Shabaglian continues. “In the face of death and sorrow there, this song took on new meaning. Our God, Adonai, is still our Deliverer—for the Israelis, for Hamas, and for all of us in the Western world who need His rescue from the things that bind us or cause us to hurt those we love. ‘Adonai’ is a proclamation that He is the God of the Old and New Testaments and has been the Deliverer of both Jews and Gentiles for millennia.”

Shabaglian is currently in Israel, where he is slated to make the live performance debut of “Adonai” at the 30th anniversary of the All Nations Convocation in Jerusalem. He will also lead worship during the 15-day event, which is sponsored by the Jerusalem House of Prayer for All Nations and draws attendees from around the world.
