Arden, North Carolina (September 19, 2025) — The latest single from Sonlite Records’ Sound Street might have some of the flavors of a contemporary children’s song, and it’s led by 9-year-old Johanna Vanderslice, but “Pray, Pray, Pray” affirms in its lyrics a message that every age can appreciate:

Pray, pray, pray, Have a little talk with Jesus
Pray, pray, pray, On and on without ceasin’
Lay it all before Him, every night and morning
He’s gonna make a way
So pray, pray, pray
Pray

“We are beyond excited,” enthuses father Jarrod Vanderslice, who leads the trio with daughter, Jaylie, and third member, Ryan Bilbey, “for this powerful reminder that no matter the time, place, or situation, we never have to worry or fret… we can always PRAY!

"This release is extra special because it features Johanna — my daughter and baby sister to Jaylie. You may remember her small but sweet debut in our version of ‘I’m So Blessed’… but this time, the song is all hers! From the very first note, Johanna’s voice doesn’t just sing — it connects. Her ability to communicate the heart of this song is beyond her years and absolutely captivating.”

Indeed, Johanna’s conviction shines through in her endearing delivery, while producer/pianist Roger Talley leads the backing ensemble through the song’s irresistible musical signature and cheery melody to create a memorable setting.

Says Jarrod, “We hope ‘Pray, Pray, Pray’ encourages you the way we teach our own children — to talk to Jesus about everything, anytime, anywhere!”
