    Биография

    Matt Merker writes Christ-centered songs for churches. His goal is to compose hymns that express glorious truths about God with singable, timeless melodies. Matt’s music reflects the full spectrum of the Christian life, from sorrowful yearning to joyful hope. He prays that songs like “He Will Hold Me Fast,” “I Will Wait for You (Psalm 130),” and “Christ Our Hope in Life and Death” would encourage and comfort God's people. Matt's hymns have been recorded by artists including Keith & Kristyn Getty, Sandra McCracken, Selah, Michael W. Smith, Shane & Shane, Sovereign Grace Music and more. God brought Matt to faith in Christ at a young age, and Matt has been leading corporate worship through song since he was a teenager. A native of Long Island, NY, he studied religion and music at Vanderbilt University and later earned a Master of Divinity degree from Southern Baptist Theological Seminary. He has performed classical, rock, pop and jazz in a variety of contexts, but his favorite musical setting is leading singing with his congregation, Edgefield Church in East Nashville. He is also the author of "Corporate Worship: How the Church Gathers as God's People" (Crossway/9Marks, 2021).
