CeCe Winans has released one of the most spiritually significant albums of her storied career. The Hymns, available on all digital platforms, is a soul-stirring journey back to the very foundations upon which all of Christian and gospel music was built. This long-awaited collection captures the timeless power of sacred hymn singing and offers it to a new generation hungry for authentic, unshakeable faith.
From the camp meetings of the early church to cathedrals across the entire world, to front porch sing-alongs, hymns have shaped the souls of generations.
“These hymns serve as an anchor for believers, keeping us grounded in what matters most. In a world that is constantly changing, they connect us to the “old landmarks” of faith, reminding us of God’s unchanging nature and the core truths that must remain central to our worship,” says Winans.
Grammy Award-winning producers Thomas Hardin, Jr. and Tyrone Jackson bring a steady, soulful hand to the project, letting the songs breathe exactly as they were meant to. The Hymns showcases sixteen of the most treasured songs in all of Christian music. Hardin and Jackson’s production honors the sacred character of each hymn while allowing CeCe’s incomparable voice to soar with the freedom, warmth, and authority that have made her one of the most beloved music artists of all time.
From the triumphant declaration of “Amazing Grace” to the tender yielding of “ I Surrender All,” from the profound peace of “It Is Well” to the childlike wonder of “Jesus Loves Me,” CeCe brings each hymn to life with the kind of deeply personal conviction that only comes from a lifetime of genuine faith. These are not merely performances; they are testimonies.

These sixteen hymns represent centuries of faith poured into song. They have been lifted in praise on every continent, in every language, through every generation of the church. With The Hymns, CeCe Winans ensures that their legacy continues that these mighty anchors of worship are not forgotten but are celebrated, cherished, and passed on.
CeCe’s remarkable year continues with the upcoming release of her new book, Faith For Generations (K-LOVE Books), launching July 21, 2026. In the same spirit as The Hymns, this powerful new book explores the faith that has been passed down through generations: a faith that holds, a faith that endures, and a faith worth giving to those who come after us.
Faith For Generations is now available for pre-orders on Amazon.com. Mark your calendar, it officially launches July 21 and will be available wherever books are sold.
