Danny Gokey on Faith, Patriotism, and New Album 'Sound of Heaven'

A new album by Grammy-nominated artist Danny Gokey includes his usual upbeat, hope-filled songs but also includes a track that warns about the deceptive nature of evil and urges the church to “wake up” to the lies society has embraced. “Evil is dressing up to fool the people,” Gokey told Crosswalk Headlines. 

The 11-song LP, Sound of Heaven, releases July 26 and is Gokey’s fifth studio album with a mixture of worship, pop, and Latin sounds. One song from that album, I Got You, is currently on the Billboard Christian Airplay chart. 

Another song, Makeup, addresses what Gokey calls “hard truths” by comparing the devil’s deception to cosmetics on a face. “Wake up/I think the devil’s trying to play us/he’s mesmerized us with the makeup/but it’s made up/open your eyes, stop buying all the lies.”
