Gotta Have Faith by Emma Nissen
5 years ago I had to drop out of college because of an issue with both vocal cords. My degree was vocal performance so you can imagine my devastation. Despite the bad news, I remember walking away from the hospital room with this overwhelming warmth of the spirit that seemed to say... you just gotta have faith. A little over a year later I had just arrived to Sweden (where I would be serving a full time church mission) when the pandemic began. After hearing the news, despite the outer turmoil I felt, once again the familiar peace and hope of the spirit washes over me and I voiced aloud..."we just gotta have faith". a groove started in my foot. "faith in the Lord". somewhere in my head a bass started playing and I walked over to the piano and sat down to write my first song ever and the song that began it all...Gotta Have Faith.
I hope this song inspires you and get stuck in your head like it does mine at the most opportune times and reminds you that TRULY these trying times will help us and we will be stronger than before… we just gotta have faith.

Coming from an estranged preachers daughter, my family doesn’t communicate much unless over Facebook or about god. sent this song to both of my parents this morning overjoyed knowing they’d love it. This is so special. Worship music really brings you closer.

Please keep my wife in your prayers. She has myotonic muscular dystrophy. Her mobility and ability to walk has regressed over the past few years. Doctors cannot heal or cure her, but I know God can and will. Please make this a daily prayer request for her. It is hard, some days, to stay positive and to not worry about her situation. I rely on the love of God and the prayers of others to get me through. God Bless and thank you! #CureMyotonicMuscularDystrophy
I am not religious but this song is so spiritually moving. You're voice is one of a kind
Saw one of your Instagram videos and came straight to save this to my playlist! Thank you for spreading the Gospel through your insane talent!!

Anyone else notice a weird volume boost at around 2:57? Otherwise, a wonderful piece full of encouragement!

Came straight from IG... I thank the good lord up above.. because just yesterday I asked for music that is helping me in my path with God. Today I found you while scrolling, no you were SENT!!! Going straight to my playlist! Your beautiful voice is humming in my heart and my soul cherishes you, my dear sister. Thank you. God bless you ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ Much love from Switzerland ❤❤❤
Saw this on Instagram and I just HAD to come listen. This sounds AWESOME!
I got chills down my spine. Your voice is absolutely amazing. Thank you for blessing my ears.
I dont share your faith but man I have faith in you and the joy you create and imbue into your voice. It is mesmerising and filled with joyful personality. Keep doing what you are doing and I will keep smiling and dancing to it! If you ever wrote a joyful song filled with love that wasn't necessarily about God, I would 100% walk down the aisle to it, or have my first dance to it. Thanks for being you!
My favorite Christina female singer. Starting today! I pray for more raw talent like this to arise! So untamed, real, and not held back from the pressure of 88.1 way fm typical music 😅. There I said it lol.
God is wonderful! He works through all of us and through you he has helped me. Thank you for your faith and talent. Thank you! You have helped me through some of the hardest times in my life
It's a conforting song for me. I like
Jesus! What a sound 😮
Tysm for this song, God always using music to blessings other brothers and sisters
This is raw talent. Absolutely beautiful. I don't see any song replacing this as my new favorite.
I have been singing Gospel for 32 years and your voice and message is so inspiring and unique. Keep singing for more lives will be touched than you can ever know.
Buddy sent me an instagram video of this artist, told him I’m looking her up and now I’m here. Such a wonderful voice, jazz music is a wonderful option if you ever wanted to pursue that too
I love the fact of the idea got pit into your heart god bless you
You’ve got a really special thing at the end where the sound jumps up at the end and is way louder. But more than that your voice is incredible and the Lord has blessed your. Thank you for blessing Him back and us
It is so easy to be consumed by all the darkness that is present today, this song is a beautiful reminder for us all.

Matthew 21:21-22 New Living Translation 21 Then Jesus told them, “I tell you the truth, if you have faith and don’t doubt, you can do things like this and much more. You can even say to this mountain, ‘May you be lifted up and thrown into the sea,’ and it will happen. 22 You can pray for anything, and if you have faith, you will receive it.”
