"How Great Thou Art" by Gethsemane Instrumental: Wordless Melodies for Healing and Connection


From an early age, John Long has been involved in music in multiple capacities. He is a singer, songwriter, and studio producer at Arrow Point Studio in Kansas City. He is known around the world through his success on the Fiverr platform. John leads worship with Revive Music at the Revive Church in Kansas City. 

Gethsemane Instrumental - How Great Thou ArtThe Hymn Devotional (Vol. 1) EP is the start of a new project called Gethsemane Instrumental. John shares, "Wordless melodies are often what help people connect to the Holy Spirit in their secret place. This project aims to aid that connection with songs that are made for and made by secret place encounter. 

Our lives are better when we spend time with the Lord alone, not just on Sunday morning. Healing is found in that place. Comfort in grief is found there. Fulfillment like you've never known is there. I pray this project helps people connect to all of those things, but also helps deepen a real relationship with Jesus."

The EP is a collection of slowed instrumental renditions of 4 well-known hymns (plus an extended version of each hymn). These tracks are beautifully made and have been slowed down to 50–60 bpm.

"Man I Used To Be" by Dax: Half the Weight, Double the Faith

"Man I Used To Be" by Dax is a very personal song. Dax had promised himself that he wouldn't release new music until he'd stayed sober for six months, the time he needed to get his priorities straight and clear his mind. "Man I Used To Be" is the sound of his first clean breath, life with God by his side. Dax lays it bare: "Trials and tribulations, all my past trauma," he acknowledges, along with "generational curses from daddy and mama," and the "addictions that clouded my eyes." The honesty about his past struggles makes the message of this song so relatable and powerful.  The chorus is about the moment that the script was flipped, "I'm half the man I used to be." Not a broken man, but a man who has been freed from the burdens that weren't his to carry and kept him from God. "I don't ever chase, I got God," declaring that his new identity is anchored in faith. It's a shrug and a testimo...

"One That Matters" by Marija Clara: Because Only One Voice Matters

The song "One That Matters" by Marija Clare was born in a sunlit home studio in Tegucigalpa. The song sounds like a celebration, but the story behind the song adds a deeper meaning to the lyrics. Marija Clara wrote this song after a miscarriage, and that contrast shapes the song’s message! Joy isn't denial of the facts. Joy is what comes after the facts... joy is healing in the presence of Jesus. In other words, the bright horns and Latin rhythms are not just for dancing, they’re a reminder that God can turn even the most raw grief into a place of renewal. In these lyrics, Marija names the pressure that you probably also feel around you: everyone watching, expecting you to achieve, you can't permit yourself to slow down. Instead of chasing every demand, she points us to the freedom of knowing that when we have Christ, everything else in our lives becomes secondary. Each line in the song circles back to this simple confession: He is the only One that matters, He resha...

"All Praise (Great Are You Lord)" by Aaron Goodhew: Remembering His Sacrifice, Embracing His Reign

Aaron Goodhew's song, "All Praise (Great Are You Lord)," is a reminder of the ultimate hope that fuels our faith. Aaron shares that the inspiration for this song came to him while studying Revelation, specifically chapter 7. He was moved to tears by the promise of believers surrounding God's throne for eternity, experiencing pure joy, and free from all suffering. Just look around you at all of the suffering around the world, as well as the suffering close to home. Realize that we're just seeing a glimpse of all the suffering that is happening.  There is hope! Aaron explains, "The hope of that future in Christ is the fuel that drives believers every day to lay down their lives in pursuit of Jesus." This song is written with the desire that it will stir people to lift their eyes from their current circumstances and look up to Him who is seated in all authority.  The song reminds us of Jesus walking "the road that we deserved," carrying "th...
