Zach Williams recently released a powerful new single called "Hated" off his upcoming album.
"This song is about making peace with the fact that not everyone will understand or agree with your faith,” Williams said. “At the end of the day, I’d rather be known for following Jesus than for compromising who I am to fit in."
Williams album Jesus Loves will be released in full on Sept. 19, 2025. It has 12 songs, including the title track and another single featuring CAIN.
This fall, Williams will play this new music during his Revival Nights tour, with We The Kingdom, Ben Fuller and Leanna Crawford.
According to Williams, this new song was based on the verse found in Matthew 10:22, which says, "And you will be hated by all for my name's sake. But the one who endures to the end will be saved."
Willims will be performing once in Canada in 2025, as he performs for Providence University College and Theological Seminary's centennial celebration at the Southeast Event Centre in Steinbach on Sept. 6. Jordan St. Cyr will be opening for Williams, and tickets can be purchased here.
