Bethel Music’s Garett and Kate Serban announce the release of their debut single “How Great Thou Art (Live),” available today on all major streaming platforms alongside a live performance video.
Captured during a Sunday service at Bethel Church in Redding, Calif., the powerful recording breathes new life into the timeless hymn, offering a Spirit-filled expression of worship. Watch the live performance video here and stream the single here.
Rooted in a legacy of generational faith and awe for God’s greatness, “How Great Thou Art (Live)” marks the Serbans’ first official release since joining the Bethel Music collective earlier this year. Featuring rich harmonies and a passionate delivery, the track invites listeners into a moment of worship that reverberates with wonder, surrender, and deep reverence.
“We are so excited for the release of ‘How Great Thou Art,’” says Garett and Kate Serban. “This song is a timeless hymn that we grew up on that holds rich history in our lives. We love how it tells the story of our creator God and our Savior. It really centers us back to how vast our God is and what we have to look forward to on the day we step into eternity, meeting Him face to face, the moment we all are waiting for. What a moment that will be! We pray that this song will continue to take root in our children and their children’s children. We remember hearing our grandparents sing this hymn over us and we desire that our grandchildren will remember us singing this in the years to come. A generational proclamation of who our God is!”
The couple, based in Franklin, Tenn., joined Bethel Music in December 2024 following the growth of their weekly online “Worship Sessions” – a spontaneous gathering marked by unhurried, Spirit-led moments of worship. Raised in ministry as pastor’s kids, Garett and Kate each began leading worship at a young age and have carried a shared heart for worship and revival since their early years in local church leadership.
Bethel Music is a worship movement pursuing the presence of God and capturing fresh expressions of worship out of Redding, California. Bethel Music has grown from a local church music ministry to an internationally renowned collective of songwriters, artists, and musicians. Brian and Jenn Johnson co-founded the movement in 2001 to raise up worshippers, take hold of their true identities, and pursue intimacy with God, above all else.
Since 2001, Bethel Music has released 27 albums, including their most recent live worship album, We Must Respond (2025), Moments: Wait (2024), Simple (2022), Homecoming (Live) (2021), Revival’s In The Air (Live)(2020), and many more. Each album carries a unique theme and features some of the most well-recognized artists in the genre. Bethel Music was also GRAMMY® nominated for the song “Holy Forever” feat. Jenn Johnson and CeCe Winans, and in 2024, won the Dove award for “Holy Forever” for “Best Song of the Year.”
In 2021, the label was nominated for six Dove Awards, and another 11 in 2022, spanning across categories like “Songwriter of the Year,” “Worship Album of the Year,” and “Inspirational and Rock/Contemporary Song of the Year.” Additionally, the worship collective recently earned three 2025 Dove Award nominations – two for We Must Respond (Live) in the categories of Worship Album of the Year and Recorded Music Packaging of the Year, and one for “Christmas Morning” in the Christmas/Special Event Album of the Year category.
Since forming, Bethel Music has broken records, ranking in CCLI’s Top 25 songs since 2013. Their song, “Goodness of God,” was ranked #1 for over three years. “This Is Amazing Grace” has ranked in the Top 25 songs since 2014; “No Longer Slaves” since 2016; and “The Lion and the Lamb” since 2017. In addition, “Reckless Love” has appeared in the Top 10 since 2018, and “Living Hope” in the Top 10 since 2019.
