Powerful new song by Welsh folk-rock band highlights plights of Christian
prisoners of faith
A Welsh folk-rock band has released a powerful new song to support
persecuted Christians around the world who will be behind bars this
Christmas.
Bridgend-based Written in Kings have recorded a new version of their
song War
in Me. Available to download, War
in Me highlights the plight of
many Christians around the world who are persecuted for their faith.
The new song ties in with the 10th anniversary of Release International’s
Prisoners of Faith ministry, which gives pastoral care and practical support to
imprisoned Christians and their families. Release helps persecuted Christians
worldwide.
‘We wanted to support Christians who are jailed for their faith,’ says
vocalist Nathan Beaton, ‘because we have the privilege of freedom. Freedom to
believe in the God who created us and the free will to live our lives as
Christians. We wanted to give a voice to the voiceless and thought it’d be great
to support Release International.’
In countries such as Burma, China, Eritrea, North Korea, Pakistan,
Vietnam and many others, Christians are in prison today simply for standing up
for their faith. Release Int.
