GRAMMY-Award winner and multifaceted entertainer Michelle Williams and modern-soul singer Kenny Lattimore have blended their signature voices on an uplifting new song "God With Us" (Tyscot Records) that was inspired by the new holiday film by the same name. "God With Us" releases to all major digital music platforms on November 13, 2026 - the same day that the film premieres at select theaters around the USA.

Nikki Grier (who's written for acts as varied as Big Sean and Jon Batiste) penned the song and interpolated the melody of Tevin Campbell's 1993 gem, "Can We Talk?" The mid-tempo urban groove was produced by Harmony H-Money Samuels (known for his work with the likes of Ella Mai, Arianna Grande and Williams' last solo album "Journey To Freedom") who gives the song undeniable commercial swag. Lattimore's wailing tenor and Williams' breathy soprano complement each other and make this a feel-good collaboration. The track is the first offering from the forthcoming motion picture soundtrack that features some of the biggest names in R&B and gospel music.

The highly-anticipated motion picture stars Aspen Kennedy (The Forge) and Ashley Olivia Fisher (Average Joe) as inner-city, childhood sweethearts who embark on a divine mission that tests their faith, challenges their future and reveals the extraordinary power of unconditional love. The film, a modern retelling of the nativity story, also features Rotimi, Gregory Alan Williams, Roger Guenveur Smith and Clifton Powell. Watch the trailer at: https://www.godwithusmovie.com.

"God With Us," the single, is lifted from the forthcoming soundtrack, God With Us, available this holiday season.

"God With Us" Lyrics

V1:

There's a miracle in our midst
Sent from heaven oh what a gift
What a friend we have in Jesus
Through the storms of life he'll keep you
From the rising of the sun
To the going of the same
More than worthy of our praise
So let all creation sing

Pre:

Cause I know, that I know , that I know
My God is able
And when I'm down or alone
I can call him
He'll be there just to save me

Hook:

God With Us
(He always there, he's always)
God with Us
(With all his love, he'll never change)
God With Us
(Deserves all of the honor)
Ain't got no worries cause God wit us

V2:

King of Kings
The Lord of Lords
No one more that we adore
Nothing compares to your love
For my life your only son
And I can't thank you enough
I've searched the whole world over
Hook

Bridge:

There's no one
No else compares to your love, your love
There's only one
God so loved the world that he gave his son
You're one of one
And he did it all just for you and for me
You and me

Tag:

Got no worries cause God wit us
Faith no fear cause God with us
Cast your cares now God wit us, God wit us
Yeah God is it us

MICHELLE WILLIAMS

Michelle has enjoyed a varied career as one-third of the biggest girl group of the new millennium and as a Broadway star. Williams joined Destiny's Child in 2000 where she performed on some of their biggest hits such as "Survivor." In 2002, she released her first solo album, Heart to Yours.

Her 2014 album, Journey to Freedom, included her Billboard Top Ten Gospel Airplay single, "Say Yes," with Beyoncé and Kelly Rowland.

She and her castmates earned a Grammy ® Award nomination for Death becomes Her in the category of Best Musical Theater Album

KENNY LATTIMORE

The New York Times has lauded Mr. Lattimore as a modern soul man. However, he's sung a range of songs from Jazz to Blues and Gospel. The Washington, D.C. native has placed 22 songs on the Billboard Adult R&B Airplay chart. His breakthrough 1997 single "For You" spent an astounding 17 weeks at No. 1 on the chart, a full 52 weeks on the chart and established him as a balladeer in the mold of Babyface or Luther Vandross. It also earned him a Grammy® Award nomination as Best Male R&B Vocal Performance. He's enjoyed eight other Top Ten singles such as "Never Too Busy"( 1996), "Days Like This" (1998) and "Stay On Your Mind" (2018).

In 2008, Lattimore reached the Smooth Jazz Top Ten with his sweet rendition of The Beatles' "And I Love Her." He's also guested on recordings by Jazz artists such as Boney James, Najee and Dave Koz. In 2012, Lattimore launched Sincere Soul Records. He's since released four acclaimed albums such as Anatomy of a Love Song and a Kenny Lattimore Christmas (2016) and his latest project, Lullabies for You (2026).
