Anne Wilson’s Heartfelt Cry ‘Carry Me’ Ushers in a New Chapter of Faith, Healing, and Hope
PLATINUM-certified and GRAMMY-nominated singer-songwriter Anne Wilson unveils her most soul-baring release yet with “Carry Me,” a stirring ballad that closes the curtain before her much-anticipated new album Stars drops on October 17. Co-written with longtime collaborators Jeff Pardo, Matthew West, and Trannie Anderson, the song is a vulnerable confession born out of Wilson’s real-life journey through grief and growth. After losing her brother Jacob, she was thrust into a season of rapid change, fame, and emotional weight—a burden she admits was never hers to carry alone. In “Carry Me,” Wilson turns that heaviness into a heartfelt prayer, surrendering to the arms of Jesus and finding strength in His promise to lift what feels too heavy to bear. The accompanying music video beautifully mirrors this message, offering a cinematic glimpse into the raw emotion behind her faith-filled journey.
As the final preview of Stars, “Carry Me” encapsulates the spirit of an album that bridges Wilson’s country grit with the luminous hope of her Christian faith. Each of the 12 tracks—crafted with an impressive roster of collaborators—tells a story of heartbreak transformed into healing, doubt reshaped into devotion, and pain redeemed by purpose. Already hailed by Holler as “a rousing, autobiographical record,” Stars captures the heart of a woman who has learned to see God’s fingerprints in both the brightest constellations and the darkest nights. Alongside her new devotional Hey Girl: You Are Seen, Loved, and Made for More, Wilson continues to use her voice as a vessel of encouragement, reminding listeners everywhere that even in life’s heaviest moments, we are never truly walking alone—because the same God who carried her still carries us all.
