Anthem Edition Revives Southern Gospel with Resurrection Anthem ‘Running’
In the world of Southern Gospel, few songs capture the vibrancy of resurrection like “Graveyard” by Anthem Edition. Released by Sonlite Records, this stirring celebration of new life in Christ has been climbing the Southern Gospel charts, offering listeners a powerful testament to faith. Now, even as “Graveyard” continues its ascent, Anthem Edition is already priming fans for more with their upcoming EP, Promises Kept. And they’re not making fans wait until next year; instead, they’re sharing a taste of what’s to come, bringing forth a jubilant new single, “Running.”
The third track from Promises Kept, “Running,” tells the story of Lazarus’s resurrection with a lively bass-driven energy and dynamic harmonies. It’s an anthem of hope, anchored by Andrew Utech’s impressive bass vocal and a pulse-pounding percussion and guitar groove that captures the very heartbeat of Gospel. Produced by renowned Gospel producer Roger Talley, “Running” is designed to stir the spirit and inspire faith as the quartet passionately sings about the moment Jesus brought Lazarus back from the dead.
With a call-and-response structure, the chorus shines as a celebration of freedom and salvation:
He went running (like a new man out of that grave)
He went shouting (like a soul who’s just been saved)
There was freedom (when the Lord broke Him out of those chains)
What a moment (what a “Praise God!” glorious day)
When He heard Jesus call his name
He went running (running) out of that grave
With “Running,” Anthem Edition invites listeners not just to hear the Gospel but to feel it, as each note pulses with the energy of faith restored. It’s a powerful reminder that just as Jesus called Lazarus from his grave, we too are invited into new life through His love. “Running” is available for streaming in immersive Dolby Atmos spatial audio on Apple Music, Amazon Music, and TIDAL, offering fans a richer experience of the vibrant celebration.
As Anthem Edition prepares to release Promises Kept, they’re reminding their listeners that the best is yet to come—and the journey toward new life in Christ is one worth running to embrace.
