'I Heard The Voice Of Jesus Say’ Beautifully Covered by Sounds Like Reign

A popular Christian family musical group, Sounds Like Reign, beautifully covered ‘I Heard The Voice of Jesus Say,’ and you don’t want to miss this incredible performance. Some songs don't just touch your ears; they speak straight to your heart. ‘Sounds Like Reign’ does an incredible job with this timeless hymn where you can’t help but sing right along with their folklore style. The song opens with a powerful invitation as Brackin Kirkland plays a flute inside an old church.

‘Come unto Me, and rest; 

Lay down, thou weary one, lay down 

Thy head upon My breast’

The lyrics hit home because, let’s be honest, life can be so heavy. We carry worries, responsibilities, and heartaches that weigh us down, often pretending we’re fine when we’re not. But this song? It’s like Jesus whispering directly to our souls: “You don’t have to carry it all. Come, rest in Me.” 

What brings the whole song together is how Brackin’s wife, Lindsey, creates a soulful voice that calls out to you over years of refining her unique style and voice. She sounds like she belongs in the Renaissance Ages. Together, they sing with a heartfelt harmony and create a sacredness to the old hymn through their simple acoustic sounds. 

When they first launched their band, they described their music as "sonic exploration of faith in God,” as they aim to inspire listeners to focus on God and walk in the light of Jesus. I can’t think of a better mission statement for a band. 

Over the years, they’ve released several albums, including ‘Arise My Soul,’ ‘Shepherd Songs,’ and ‘Endless Praise.’ They share their music on several platforms, including their official YouTube channel and their vlog ‘Tiny Notes From Home.’ 

Sounds Like Reign has a soulful approach and folksong flair that make this rendition a powerful reminder of the enduring turn to Jesus when life gets heavy.  Whether you’re a long-time fan of the hymn or new to it, this version will inspire and uplift, offering a fresh perspective on a timeless call to faith.

Matthew 11:28 “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.”
