Memoirs of a Worshipper...Byron Cage

I am a huge fan of Gospel music and what it stands for. Being a fan of gospel music helps me recognize, admire and follow those who bring forth the messages of the Gospel of Christ through praise and worship songs. I am totally enlightened when I hear the gospel music artist Byron Cage sing. He isn’t called the “Prince of Praise” for nothing.  He just released a new album titled “Memoirs of a Worshipper “that expresses worship in a finite way. I enjoy listening to Byron Cage’s Praise and Jubilee songs but this album really displayed his true love and passion for worshipping The I Am that I Am.  The one song that keeps me on my feet is "My Refuge, My Strength". This extortion of praise really encourages me, as a worshipper and lyricist, to continue writing exaltation and affirmation to God with grace, eloquence and intensity.


Today as a Gospel artist, many might assume that getting out there and making a name for yourself is next to impossible. There are many musicians, singers, worshippers, and praisers that are all over the world in churches and studios preparing to be FAMOUS per se, but I believe if its meant for the messages of proclaiming God's love and his astounding acts to the nations there will be enough room in the Music Industry for me as well. Byron Cage is a worshipper at heart.  On Fox 5 Morning news he expresses how this newly released album is his 9th recording and that it was created to point worship back to God. He is a very articulate yet swift speaker who explains his purpose of recording this album and exclaims the worship through a live performance of his single “Throne”.  This televised performance showed that Cage truly loves God and isn’t ashamed to declare his love of Christ to anyone. I truly recognize and admire such an act.
