“Holy Forever,” performed by the legendary CeCe Winans, is a powerful contemporary gospel track from her 2024 album, More Than This. Released on April 26, 2024, under the Puresprings Gospel label, the album is a live recording that captures the raw energy and spiritual atmosphere of her worship services. While “Holy Forever” is a solo performance, the album itself is a testament to Winans’ continued influence and features a collaboration with gospel artist Todd Dulaney on the title track. As one of the most awarded and best-selling female gospel singers of all time, CeCe Winans has garnered numerous accolades, including multiple Grammy and GMA Dove Awards. Her career, which began with the popular duo BeBe & CeCe Winans, has established her as a preeminent voice in gospel and inspirational music.
The song’s profound impact stems from its lyrical focus on the eternal holiness and supremacy of God. It draws inspiration from biblical themes of universal worship and the ultimate authority of God’s name, as seen in scriptures like Philippians 2:9-11. The full 13-track album, More Than This, features a rich tapestry of worship songs, including “Lord and Friend,” “Be Still and Know,” “Too Late To Lose,” “Oh The Blood Of Jesus,” “Worthy,” “That’s My King,” “Sanctuary,” “Refiner,” “Come Jesus Come,” “Is He Worthy?,” and “In A Little While.” This collection of songs, with “Holy Forever” as a key highlight, serves as a testament to Winans’ ability to create music that not only inspires but also leads listeners into a deeper, more transcendent worship experience.
