Forrest Frank is wearing his heart on his sleeve.
The chart-topping Christian artist has released his deeply personal new single, "Somebody Prayed," revealing that the song was inspired by his grandmother-a faithful "prayer warrior" whose daily prayers helped shape the man and musician he is today.
The emotional anthem also features 14-year-old rising Christian artist Tate Butts, whose viral performances have quickly made him one of the genre's most exciting young voices. Fans got an unforgettable surprise when Frank brought Butts onstage to debut the unreleased track during his sold-out concert at Nashville's GEODIS Park, where more than 25,000 fans witnessed the heartfelt moment.
Before performing the song, Frank shared the touching story of his grandmother's unwavering faith, explaining how her consistent prayers became part of his own testimony. It's a message that reminds listeners that generations of faithfulness often produce fruit long after the prayers are spoken.
The release continues an incredible hot streak for Frank, marking his fifth new single in just over a month. Recent releases include "The Truth Will Set You Free," a modern retelling of Christ's mission, "The Jesus Generation," an anthem celebrating the growing revival among young believers, "Jesus Is Alive," which became his second No. 1 on Billboard's Hot Christian Songs chart, and "OKAY," a gratitude-filled track that has already surpassed one million global streams.
Frank is currently packing arenas and stadiums across America on his record-breaking The Jesus Generation Tour, proving that contemporary Christian music is filling some of the nation's biggest venues. Billboard recently praised his performances as a "stand-out concert experience," while fans continue selling out dates across the country.
The numbers behind Forrest Frank's meteoric rise are just as impressive. He has amassed more than 4.2 billion global streams, earned five GMA Dove Awards, received three Grammy nominations, and boasts 40 entries on Billboard's Hot Christian Songs chart-including 12 Top 10 hits, the most of any artist in the chart's history.
But despite the accolades, "Somebody Prayed" points listeners back to the quiet faithfulness of one woman who simply kept praying. It's a timely reminder that while stages, awards, and streaming milestones may capture headlines, some of God's greatest work begins with faithful prayers offered behind closed doors.
"Somebody Prayed" is available now on all major streaming platforms.
