Evans Ogboi, winner of 2025 StepFWD’s Contemporary Gospel Song, opens 2026 with a “Hymn Medley” that gently reminds us of our walk with Christ and the importance of trusting Him. In a time like this, it is a perfect moment to pause and reflect on our faith before stepping fully into the year.
The medley starts with “hymns” about trusting God. These first songs lay the foundation, showing that when we trust Him, we gain strength. This naturally flows into The Power in the Blood of Jesus, which leads to Oh the Blood of Jesus. Each hymn builds on the last, taking the listener on a quiet journey from trust to understanding Christ’s sacrifice and finally to heartfelt praise, closing with a calm, worshipful Hallelujah.
What makes this “medley” special is how the songs connect. They do not feel like separate pieces but one continuous expression of faith. The instruments support the vocals beautifully, balancing everything so the medley flows naturally and keeps you immersed in the message.
The choice of “hymns” is thoughtful. Each song follows the last, moving from trust to reflection to praise. By the end, you feel guided through a journey of faith, recognizing God’s presence and His work in our lives.
Evans Ogboi has not just put together a Hymn medley he has created an experience. It is reflective, uplifting and heartfelt, reminding us of the power of faith, the importance of trusting God and the peace that comes when we truly walk with Him.
