Few songs manage to balance spiritual depth with musical authenticity the way Where I Find God does in this stirring new cover by Stevie Lee Woods and The NRL Band. Released on 13 March 2026, the track arrives as a heartfelt reminder of the enduring power of country gospel. Woods, an inductee into the Country Music Hall of Fame—approaches the song with reverence and conviction, transforming it into a deeply personal testimony. From the opening notes, listeners are drawn into a warm, reflective atmosphere where faith, storytelling, and classic country sensibility intertwine seamlessly.
Originally written by Larry Fleet, the song carries emotional weight that Woods amplifies through his seasoned vocal delivery. Backed by the tight musicianship of The NRL Band and the rich harmonies of background vocalist Devin Callahan, the performance feels both intimate and expansive. Legendary producers Chris Omartian and Stuart Epps shape the arrangement with careful restraint, allowing the message to remain front and center. Each lyric lands with clarity, making the listener feel every ounce of devotion embedded in the song.
The recording reflects the lineage of classic country and gospel influences. Echoes of artists like Vince Gill, Patty Loveless, Reba McEntire, and the timeless elegance of Ray Price can be felt throughout the performance, alongside the spiritual warmth associated with The Gaither Vocal Band. Recorded between Mansion Studios and sessions in London, the production captures a polished yet organic sound that bridges traditional country roots with contemporary clarity.
Perhaps the most compelling aspect of this release is its ability to move listeners beyond entertainment into reflection. A preacher who witnessed the song performed live described the experience as “bringing God right into the room,” a sentiment that perfectly captures its impact. Fans can hear the track performed regularly at the Nashville Roadhouse Theater and through the Nashville Roadhouse live TV and radio shows. In every setting, this version of Where I Find God stands as a powerful, uplifting reminder of music’s spiritual resonance.
