US pop rockers 7eventh Time Down talk about latest single
US CCM hitmakers 7eventh
Time Down have spoken about their latest single "Lean On". Said
the band's Mikey Howard, "We had been on tour for weeks while we were
writing our record 'God Is On The Move'. We had one last song to
write, and honestly, I just wanted to be home. I had only seen my wife
and kids through a phone screen and in that moment, I wanted to quit
everything and just be a husband and father. I remember walking into
the writing session and saying I was done. I didn't have anything left
in me. Cliff (our bass player) and our friend Jason both felt the same
way. After hearing that I thought, 'Great! What a waste of time!' Our
only hope was to lean into God for a song. The one thread that wove
our whole conversation together was being spent and exhausted, and we
realized humanity might be just as tired as we were. When we decided
to lean on the Lord for a song that day, we placed what little we had
left in his hands, and this beautiful song about God's relentless
pursuit of our hearts and lives was created."
