‘Coming For Me’ was inspired by Brother Andrew and has been presented by Preacher Boy Missions. The song was produced by Grammy Nominated and award winning producer Steven ‘G.P.’ Abramsamadu
Rapper Jahaziel, who went on a trip to aid the persecuted in Pakistan, said:”Meeting with Christian brothers and sisters in Pakistan who’ve lost homes, family, along with their freedoms for following Jesus is the starkest reminder I have ever experienced of what the Gospel of Jesus means. Their horrific plight inspired me to make this track and hopefully give these people a voice”.
‘Coming For Me’ is being released to draw attention to Open Doors’ Right to Believe campaign which has now been signed by over 80,000 people in the UK alone.
We are urging all of our supporters to download the song this week and spread the word. Please visit facebook.com/opendoorsuk for the official music video.

The great thing about worship is that it is something that is lived out. John 4:23 tells us God isn’t necessarily looking for worship, but for worshippers! As my worship is lived out on a daily basis, others around me who don’t know about God get to encounter His goodness and His love!”- Joseph Perry

leading worship and playing the keyboard
at national christian events and for various
recording artists including renowned
Worship leaders Graham Kendrick, Noel
