Royal Anthems is a partnership between Crossroads Media, local churches across Canada, and music and ministry partners, to foster unity between churches through songs written by and for the Canadian Church. The Royal Anthems initiative was inspired by Jesus’ desire for believers to unite, expressed through His prayer in John 17:23, “I in them and you in me—so that they may be brought to complete unity. Then the world will know that you sent me and have loved them even as you have loved me.” Royal Anthems also addresses a crucial gap in Canada’s music landscape by empowering local worship leaders and songwriters from across the country to create original worship songs from the Canadian experience. Despite Canada’s rich musical heritage, we mainly import worship music from other nations. This project seeks to change that narrative, showcasing Canada’s diverse cultural and linguistic richness through worship. Royal Anthems’ project partner Matthew Greive expressed, “Canada has a song in it’s heart and the world needs to hear it!"
