Veteran Ghanaian gospel trio Daughters of Glorious Jesus say their decision to reintroduce some of their classic songs is aimed at connecting with younger audiences while preserving the timeless message of the Gospel.
Speaking on Hitz Praise Zone with Nii Noi on Hitz FM, the group explained that their latest project is inspired by the enduring relevance of God's Word, which they believe continues to speak to every generation.
Drawing from the Bible, the trio compared their mission to Isaac reopening the wells dug by his father Abraham.
"We are trying to rediscover the old wells. When Isaac came of age, he inherited the well his father Abraham had dug, which contained still waters. He didn't abandon it. Instead, he dug deeper and found that there was still water. In the same way, because our songs are based on the Word of God, they remain relevant even in today's world," they said.
Lead singer Cynthia explained that the group's goal is to introduce younger listeners, particularly Generation Z, to songs that have ministered to audiences for decades.
"We want to let the younger generation know that these songs still carry God's power and anointing. Our goal is to present them in a style they can easily relate to so they don't feel left behind. Some of these songs were released seven or even nine years ago, and many young people may never have had the opportunity to hear them," she said.
The group also revealed plans to produce music videos for many of their older songs, noting that a significant portion of their catalogue was released before music videos became a regular part of gospel music promotion.
Group member Edna said the project was prompted by requests from fans who have long wondered why many of the trio's popular songs never received visual treatment.
"Compared to our earlier years, when we produced only one or two music videos, we have so many songs without visuals. Many people from the older generation have often asked why some of our favourite songs don't have videos. That's why we want to create visuals for all those songs," she said.
Beyond preserving their music, the trio said they hope the project will leave a lasting spiritual legacy for future generations.
"We won't be here forever. We want to leave behind a rich inheritance for the fourth and fifth generations so they will remember that some people once stood together in one accord to glorify God, and that will inspire them as well," Edna added.
