Jared Anderson Talks About His New Song and EP "Where I Am Right Now" (Watch Lyric Video Here)

Worship leader and songwriter Jared Anderson will be releasing an EP of 5 songs on March 31st via Centricity Music with a full length album being released later in the year. Anderson is a notable songwriter who has written songs for many artist, such as "Almighty" that was recorded by Chris Tomlin.

Grammy award-winning producer, Seth Mosley, was at the production helm for "Where I Am Right Now" and the title track will be the first single going for adds February 20th.

With regards to the single "Where I Am Right Now," this is what Anderson has to say about the song:  "This song is a direct response to the popular condition/disease/cancer called FOMO. Fear. Of. Missing. Out. Not a new phenomenon. But as our culture is graced with information and increased options our doubts are rocket-fueled with the conviction that if we made better choices our lives would be better. I'm not saying your choices don't matter. But I am saying that if you've chosen to follow your Creator/Redeemer your life is not off-track. I said your life is not off-track. I said your life is not off-track.

If God wanted you anywhere else you would be there. He's got your number. You are His child. I have six. Children not Gods. My oldest is 10. They don't always listen so good. But if I need them to be somewhere I know how to move them. I know how to get through to them. This may not last forever but the truth is as long as they are surrendered my will for them is complete. I don't need them to be perfect just present. Their achievement in my eyes is their heart's proximity to mine. The rest is glory. Gravy. Extra.

Disappointment is normal. The voice that says, "I thought I'd be farther along than this" does not need to be followed with the shame-thrower that says, "There must be something wrong with me." We can look at the present as a gift and reward, ugly as it may appear. Often times God is keeping us hidden where we wish to be exposed and exposing what we wish to be hidden. "For we are God's handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for the us to do." (Eph. 2:10) To say we've missed it is to say He missed it.

Your life is right on track." 

With a mixture of strong ballads and rhythmic up-tempo songs, "Where I Am Right No"  spotlights such selections as "Forgiven," with lyrics that make you feel the embrace of Christ's love, while "Sweet Salvation" delivers a steady percussion backbeat with harmonies that are reminiscent of the 60's doo-wop groups, and "We Are Free," a pop infused thank you to Christ for his redemption.
