about

Vocals, piano and arrangement, Sydney Mukasa
Recorded in New Haven, Connecticut (May 2021)
A medley of the hymns “It Is Well With My Soul” and “We Shall Overcome”

On this track, Sydney set out to put the gospel and protest song We Shall Overcome in conversation with a hymn that also exuded a profound sense of faith in overcoming the struggle of the times we live in. Sydney ultimately resonated with the hymn It is Well with My Soul, as it also spoke to a sense of acceptance and closure: "Whatever my lot, thou has taught me to say–it is well with my soul." Together, he hopes the two songs inspire not a sense of resignation, but rather one of inspiration; finding inner peace is critical to moving forward with a renewed spirit.
