Anne Wilson Testifies Through The Pain With “God Story”
NASHVILLE, Tenn. – PLATINUM-certified, GRAMMY-nominated artist and songwriter Anne Wilson launches a deeply personal new chapter with “God Story,” out today – the first taste of new music since her critically acclaimed album REBEL. A soul-stirring anthem of resilience, faith and divine redemption, “God Story” finds Wilson at her most vulnerable, pairing country-pop uplift with faith-fueled fire.
“’God Story’ is so personal to me because it’s about those moments in life where you look back and think, ‘Only God could’ve brought me through that,’” shares Wilson. “We all have a God story — times when He shows up in ways we never expected. My hope is that this song helps people see that even in the middle of the pain or the waiting, God is still writing something beautiful.”
Co-written by Wilson with longtime collaborators Matthew West and Jeff Pardo, the track draws from the heartbreak of losing her brother Jacob. With a voice that’s equal parts broken and bold, Wilson traces those scars of loss and transforms them into a message of healing – the same one she now shares on stage night after night.
In April, Wilson released her Apple Music Sessions EP, a four-song collection that offered a fresh take on fan-favorite worship songs including her own hit “The Cross,” “Graves Into Graves,” “What A Beautiful Name” and a version of “Amazing Grace (My Chains Are Gone)” with Gabby Barrett. She also tied a bow on the REBEL era with REBEL (Revisited), a deluxe version of her “trailblazing album” (People) with reimagined takes and powerful acoustic and stripped-down collaborations.
Following her 27-date sold-out The REBEL Tour late last year, Wilson kicked off 2025 with a nationwide run on WINTER JAM, culminating its 38-city run in Nashville at Bridgestone Arena. This summer, Wilson will continue to bring her signature blend of worship and country to major Christian and country music festivals before joining Morgan Wallen’s I’m The Problem Tour for select dates.

The genre-bending album follows her GRAMMY-nominated 2022 debut My Jesus, with the title track becoming a PLATINUM-certified No. 1 hit on Billboard‘s Christian Airplay chart. Since then, Wilson has tallied over one billion global streams, made her Grand Ole Opry debut and completed her entirely sold-out headlining My Jesus Tour and 27-stop The REBEL Tour last fall. In 2025, Wilson toured nationwide on WINTER JAM and is hitting some of Christian and country music’s major festivals this summer before joining Morgan Wallen’s I’m The Problem Tour for select dates.
