LOS ANGELES (May 8, 2026)Bethel Music announces the release of its latest single “Love Of My Life (Live),” available now on all streaming platforms alongside a live worship video. Captured at Bethel Church in Redding, CA, the track features Martin Smith with Paul & Hannah McClure, bringing together voices that have shaped modern worship across generations. Listen to the song here and watch the music video here.

“Love Of My Life (Live)” with Martin Smith, Hannah and Paul McClure is a song of remembrance and devotion, reflecting on the moment Jesus called us by name. It’s a personal declaration that He is our greatest love, our strength, and the song we carry through every season.

Says Hannah McClure, “‘Love of My Life’ is a song born out of the simple joy of knowing and loving Jesus. We felt incredibly privileged to write it with our friend Martin Smith, who has long modeled purity and passion in worship. Our hope is that this song helps people connect with the heart of God and remember His constant friendship and faithfulness in their lives.”

Martin Smith adds, “Matthew 22.37 – it was the First and Greatest Commandment: Jesus highlighted this as the foundation of faith, emphasizing it over all other laws. ‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.’ It’s such an honor to sing such a simple but profound line. May this help the church fall more in love with Jesus.”

About Bethel Music

Bethel Music is a worship movement based in Redding, California, dedicated to pursuing the presence of God and cultivating fresh expressions of worship. What began as a local church music ministry has grown into an internationally recognized collective of songwriters, artists, and musicians. Founded in 2001 by Brian and Jenn Johnson, Bethel Music exists to raise up worshippers, help them walk in their true identity, and pursue intimacy with God above all else.

Since its founding, Bethel Music has released 27 albums, including We Must Respond (Live) (2025), Moments: Wait (Live) (2024), Come Up Here (2023), Simple (2022), and Homecoming (Live) (2021). The collective has received more than 30 career Dove Award nominations, earning 11 wins across multiple categories, and received a 2025 GRAMMY® nomination for “Holy Forever,” featuring Jenn Johnson and CeCe Winans.

Bethel Music songs consistently rank among CCLI’s Top 25, impacting churches worldwide. “Goodness of God” held the No. 1 position for more than three consecutive years, while “This Is Amazing Grace,” “Living Hope,” “Reckless Love,” “Raise A Hallelujah,” and “No Longer Slaves” have remained fixtures on CCLI charts for multiple years.

With national TV appearances on programs including Fox & Friends and The Kelly Clarkson Show, along with a sustained Top 10 radio presence, Bethel Music continues to carry the message of worship beyond the local church, leading people into God’s presence around the world.
