Juno Award-winning and Dove Award-nominated Canadian Christian rock band downhere has released its new EP, Two at a Time: Sneak Peeks and B-Sides, which features the new single You’re Not Alone. I remember hearing Hope is Rising and marveling at the glorious voice of Marc Martel and thinking to myself, “How is this band not getting more love at Christian AC?” Turns out Hope is Rising wasn’t the charting single over there, it was Here I Am. Ah well.
You’re Not Alone is breaking out at Soft AC/Inspo: fourth most-added spins, plus one added radio station. Given the limited number of radio stations in the USA now playing Soft AC/Inspo – since everyone seems to be in love with Justin Bieber – 23 additional spins is a lot, so I’m hoping that You’re Not Alone will pick up in the next few weeks. The piano lines and driving chorus make it an ideal pick-me-up for American Christians this summer. It looks like downhere has another hit in its hands.

YOU’RE NOT ALONE Lyrics
Downhere
You feel the isolation, slowly take a toll
This season of waiting, is starting to get old
Looking for acceptance and aching for a home
So tired of trying to make it out on your own
There’s no easy answer
But one thing you should know
You’re not alone
Anywhere you go
You’re not alone
Hear the voice whisper to your soul
A promise you can always hold
You’re not alone, no
You’re stuck in a dive
And you’ve almost had enough
Because of what you’ve been through
It’s difficult to trust
You’re still barely hanging on
Trying hard to fight
If anybody’s listening
You want to know tonight
There’s no easy answer, but one thing you should know
You’re not alone
Anywhere you go
You’re not alone
Hear the voice whisper to your soul
A promise you can always hold
You’re not alone, no
You’re not alone
You’re not alone
Reach out
Don’t reach within
I’m at the door if you just let me in
Reach out for what you need
What you won’t find in yourself
You will find in me
You’re not alone
Hear the voice whisper to your soul
I’ll never leave or let you go
You’re not alone, I’m with you to the end
You’re not alone, I’m closer than a friend
You’re not alone, and I’m with you to the end
You’re not alone, closer than a friend
You’re not alone…
