ORLANDO, April 17, 2020 /Christian Newswire/ -- Evangelist Reinhard Bonnke was undoubtedly a man used mightily by God. He was a gifted preacher, teacher, writer, leader... and, as it turns out, songwriter. It's true! Toward the end of his life, God stirred up songs in Bonnke's heart. Because he wasn't a trained musician, he partnered with renowned, Nashville-based songwriter and musical arranger, Don Poythress. Together, they brought the Spirit-inspired songs from his heart into the world. Now, on the 19th of April, 2020 (which would have been Bonnke's 80th birthday), his first ever single will be available for purchase and stream across all major platforms.
The song, entitled "The Glorious Gospel," opens with Bonnke's distinctive voice preaching truth to a crowd of multiple tens of thousands. Then, Justin Morgan lends his vocal talents to carry Bonnke's impassioned lyrics:
What God's done for us is infinite
The cross, weaving so intricate
The beautiful garments of salvation
The costliest in all creation
The contemporary stylings of the band keep a steady, rousing pulse that builds to the song's bridge – the lyrics of which hit with the force of a Reinhard Bonnke altar call:
It is an unadulterated, life-giving celebration of the atoning work of Jesus and the power it gives believers to live out His salvation. Like its author, it boldly proclaims God's greatness as revealed by "The Glorious Gospel."

About the Ministry
Evangelist Reinhard Bonnke was principally known for his Great Gospel Crusades throughout Africa. The son of a pastor, Reinhard surrendered his life to Jesus at age nine, and heard the call to the African mission field before he was a teenager. He attended Bible College in Wales and was ordained in Germany where he and his wife, Anni, pastored a small church until 1967 when, in obedience to his childhood call, they embarked on missionary life in Africa in the small mountain kingdom of Lesotho. When, in 1974, the Holy Spirit spoke to Reinhard in a recurring dream about "a blood-washed Africa," he founded Christ for All Nations, becoming the inspiring visionary who always spoke of "plundering hell to populate heaven," a dedicated preacher who saw "signs following" as the necessary evidence of the power of the Gospel to save, heal, and deliver.
Reinhard Bonnke's passion for the Gospel endured until the day he passed away. During his over 60 years of ministry he preached it "in season and out of season," wherever in the world the door opened to him, but Africa always remained his primary call. He loved to thunder "Africa shall be saved!" and these words still echo wherever the name of Reinhard Bonnke is known.
