At a time when the world feels heavy, 5x GRAMMY-nominated and award-winning artist Matthew West is reminding listeners of the power of prayer with the release of Don't Stop Praying (Deluxe Edition).

The expanded record adds five additional tracks to West's No. 1 Billboard Top Christian and Gospel Album Chart debut, which was originally released in Oct. 2024. It includes the track "Growing Up & Growing Old” – the sentimental anniversary song that was first shared as a surprise for his wife Emily earlier this year – plus acoustic and piano renditions of fan favorites “Don't Stop Praying,” “Unashamed,” “18 Summers” and “To Be With Jesus.”

“In a world where it feels like every time we open our news feeds, there's another tragedy, another reason to lose hope, I've been reminded again and again of the power of prayer. Every song on Don't Stop Praying was written to capture the many kinds of prayers we lift up through the highs and lows of life – prayers of desperation, gratitude, surrender and hope. My prayer is that this deluxe version of the album would remind people that even in the darkest days, God hears us, He answers, and He's not done working. So no matter what you're facing, don't stop praying.”
