The Gospel Plowboys To Release New Single, Let Me Walk Lord by Your Side.
The Gospel Plowboys are set to release their heartfelt new single, Let Me Walk Lord by Your Side, a stirring bluegrass gospel anthem that delivers a message of compassion, humility, and unwavering faith.
With Michael Jenkins delivering a soul-stirring lead vocal and guitar, the track captures the raw emotion of a man seeking acceptance not from man, but from Christ. Kris Miller adds rich harmony vocals, while Daniel Schronce contributes both mandolin and harmony vocals, adding depth and warmth. The instrumental landscape is beautifully rounded out with Alec McCallister on fiddle, Peden Williams on banjo, and guest Aaron Ramsey anchoring the track on bass.
The lyrics speak of a man who, judged by others in a church on a Sunday morning, finds solace and strength in prayer, asking for guidance and grace:
In a church on Sunday morning
Sat a man unwelcomed there
Judged by men and not by Jesus
He lifted up his voice in prayer
Steer me on the righteous pathway
Help me humbly to abide
Hold me to your precious bosom
Let me walk, Lord by your side
This poignant message of spiritual reflection and the call to walk in love and humility is delivered with the signature sincerity and musicianship The Gospel Plowboys are known for.
Let Me Walk Lord by Your Side is available today on all major streaming platforms. Broadcasters can access the new single through Airplay Direct. For more information about The Gospel Plowboys please visit The Gospel Plowboys website..

First learning the basic chords on YouTube, Daniel then progressed and started taking some formal lessons. Daniel soon taught himself how to play the guitar and bass.
