Josh Wilson has never been shy about writing songs for the messy middle – the place between fear and faith where most of us actually live. His new single “Do It Scared” lands exactly there.<\/p>\n
Released June 26 as part of New Music Friday, the song arrived with a simple, honest caption from Wilson on his official Facebook page: “Maybe bravery is being afraid and doing it anyway.”<\/p>\n
That one sentence is the whole sermon.<\/p>\n

“Do It Scared” doesn’t promise that the fear goes away. It doesn’t offer a shortcut past the hard thing or the terrifying leap. It offers something better – the permission to move forward anyway, trembling hands and all. For anyone who has stalled out waiting to feel ready, or brave enough, or certain enough, this song arrives like a friend who grabs your arm and says go<\/em>.<\/p>\n The single was written by Wilson and produced, mixed, and mastered by his longtime collaborator Kyle Schonewill, with all instruments and vocals by Schonewill and Wilson – a close, personal project from start to finish.<\/p>\n “Do It Scared” is the latest chapter in what has been one of Wilson’s most open seasons as an artist. Earlier this year he released “How Loved You Are,” a song born from his own battle with depression, alongside a vulnerable message to fans about the darkest season of his life. That song, that honesty, and now this – they form a through-line: God meets us not when we finally have it together, but right in the middle of the afraid.<\/p>\n Wilson is one of Christian music’s most enduring voices, with two No. 1 hits – “Jesus Is Alive” and “Before the Morning” – and a career built on turning real life, including the painful parts, into music that points people back to grace.<\/p>\n “Do It Scared” is out now on all major streaming platforms. If you need it today, it’s ready for you.<\/p>\n Catch up on previous Josh Wilson coverage: Josh Wilson Reveals Depression Battle with “How Loved You Are”<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n
