Jelly Roll joined Brandon Lake for a soul-stirring “Hard Fought Hallelujah” duet. Two incredibly talented musicians sing a powerful, moving version of Brandon’s hit tune. This duet is a must-listen and one you’ll likely want to play multiple times. It is that good!

The world is often a cold, cruel and uncaring place. Sin has utterly wrecked and destroyed it. Living in such an environment can and does make life difficult at times. It can leave you feeling beaten down and as if you don’t have the power and strength to continue. Simply getting through a day can feel like a monumental, impossible chore.

Sometimes, you may not feel like praising and glorifying God while going through trials and hardships. Current circumstances and situations may make that a tough ask. But even during those struggles, God is still faithful, loving and quick to forgive. Christians are called to give Him thanks in all situations. He is still worthy of all praise, glory and honor.

In a clip posted on YouTube, Jelly Roll and Brandon perform “Hard Fought Hallelujah.” The tune is about praising, glorifying and honoring God even during life’s struggles, when doing so may be difficult.

Those beautifully written lyrics perfectly capture real life. Many people often go through trying situations and praising God for that difficulty may feel odd and out of place. But God is still God. He remains on the throne and is still faithful. He will see us through that situation as He has so many times before.

“There’s times when my hands go up freely
And times that it costs, oh-oh
There’s days when a praise comes out easy
Days when it takes all the strength I got”

In addition to the beautiful song’s lyrics, the vocal performances help set this duet apart from many others. With this performance, Jelly Roll and Brandon Lake show that they are some of the most talented and gifted people working in music today.
