With a warm gospel-blues groove and a soulful choir backing, “Lean In To Jesus” is both timeless and tender–a song of comfort for weary hearts. Opening with the phrase “O my soul,” inspired by Psalms 42 and 43, Niki Lou offers a lyrical conversation with herself, reminding every listener that hope begins by turning toward the presence of Christ.
“This song came from a season where I had to literally preach truth to my own heart,” Niki Lou shares. “When you feel overwhelmed, sometimes the most powerful thing you can do is simply lean in to Jesus and rest.”
Produced and arranged by GRAMMY-nominated artist and producer Gordon Mote, “Lean In To Jesus” continues the creative partnership that began on Niki Lou’s debut album Million Tears (October 11, 2024). Together, the duo brings an organic blend of gospel, Americana, and roots influences–music steeped in both honesty and hope.
