When asked about why such a battle-cry song to rally the Christian saints she responds, “Once I heard, I said that’s it! That’s what we’re in, it’s who we are, what they are experiencing. This was followed up with the anthem, “Waging War”. The first single “Thy Will Be Done”, a worshipful song of surrender joyfully displayed CeCe’s current sojourn in God’s presence. As with each of her previous releases, CeCe wanted to express what God was trying to say through her.īilled as a “celebration of the heart, soul and the spirit of gospel music,” Thy Kingdom Come delivers. Now eight albums later and on her own record label, Pure Springs Gospel, we arrive at CeCe’s current project, Thy Kingdom Come. This would be a foretaste of the continued goodness that would come her way.
“My only goal was to grow as a person, become stronger as a woman of God and express what God wanted me to say.” After her debut project’s release and overwhelming success, it bonafided her as a solo artist. “Being a solo artist made me express more of who I am,” says CeCe. It was in the amicable separation that CeCe was able to hear what her own voice sound like. Though parting from brother BeBe would prove to be a bittersweet venture, she followed God’s lead.
Believe it or not, being a solo act was nothing that CeCe aspired to do. After being one half of the dynamic duo BeBe & CeCe Winans and spawning timeless hits as “I’m Lost Without You”, “Heaven”, and “Addictive Love” she knew that once she went solo, people would be truly listening.Īdmittedly scared, she knew this was her calling. It’s hard to believe it has been 13 years since CeCe’s first solo project, Alone in His Presence. Recently had the chance to chat with the woman of wonder to talk about music, faith and fame.
