Yancy Honored with Children's Recorded Song of the Year Dove Award for "Holy Forever"

NASHVILLE, Tenn. - Oct. 9, 2024 - PRLog -- Dove Awards-winning worship leader, songwriter, author and producer of hundreds of songs sung around the world that make Jesus loud, Yancy takes home a 55th Annual GMA Dove Award for Children's Recorded Song of the Year for her cover of "Holy Forever." Produced by Stephen Leiweke and distributed by Syntax Creative, the song is available at digital and streaming outlets everywhere via https://sc.lnk.to/R1UNDk.

Yancy's worship rendition of the song was inspired by Chris Tomlin's recording of "Holy Forever," which was written by Tomlin, Brian Johnson, Jenn Johnson, Jason Ingram and Phil Wickham, and garnered the writers the 2024 GMA Dove Award for Song of Year.

"I'm honored to be a carrier of this song and fell in love with it on the first listen," shares Yancy. "Every time I lead it live, it is a special moment. I put my spin on this popular worship song knowing 'Holy Forever' is the kind of anthem our spirits long to sing. We were made to sing 'holy, holy, holy,' and it's time for both young and old to join with the angels and sing to the One whose name stands above it all! This song is timely for us on earth, but it's also timeless because God has been, is and forever will be – holy! May His praise forever be on our lips."
