Gospel singer Gene Hoskins music ministry is the type of inspiration that can move mountains. “As a therapist, I often help people deal with stress, trauma, and transitions in life. I tell them to utilize their social and natural supports (hobbies, church, family) to help them cope,” reflects the touring musician and practicing psychotherapist.
“I woke up one morning feeling overwhelmed and stressed myself and I decided to take my own advice and use the things that make me happy in order to combat my own stress. I started singing and thinking about Jesus. I hummed this tune and stuck with me all day,” shares Hoskins about his latest and riveting single, “Make It With Jesus.”
He adds, “My hope is that the relief I felt after singing it translates to others and it can be a healing tool in some way.” “Make It With Jesus” initially came out on Hoskins independently released Homecoming in January 2021. It hit Top 14 on Billboard’s Gospel chart. On October 29, 2021, Shanachie Entertainment will release a deluxe version of Homecoming with three new tracks, finally giving the recording the widespread visibility it deserves. Shanachie Entertainment General Manager Randall Grass states, “There are many wonderful singers in gospel music but Gene Hoskins’ voice and ability to put across genuine spiritual feeling without a lot of histrionics makes him extra special, as you can hear in the overflowing joy of ‘Make It With Jesus.’”
Lyrics:
I can make it with Jesus, oh
I can make it with him
He has given us power
Through Jesus we win
I can make it with Jesus, oh
I can make it with him
He has given us power
Through Jesus we win
Up all night
It seems all I do is fight I need some peace
In your word it reads that the victory belongs to me
If I tell the truth there were times when I needed God to prove
Then I realize It came and no surprise
He will come through That’s what he’ll do
I can make it with Jesus, oh
I can make it with him
He has given us power
Through Jesus we win
With God in our side, we will be just fine
From our dark days, we will the light
Weeping may endure for a night
Just stand strong in the power of his might
Don’t give up
Just hang on
You will win
