In a genre often defined by grand crescendos, Forrest Frank’s “SUNRISE” stands out as a masterclass in restorative minimalism. As one of the most streamed Christian artists of 2025 and 2026, Frank has carved a unique niche by blending introspective lyricism with warm, lo-fi hip-hop beats.
The track functions as a “hopeful morning” in musical form. It opens with gently pulsing rhythms and smooth melodic progressions that evoke the gradual glow of dawn. Frank’s vocal delivery is calm yet earnest, carrying a genuine emotional weight that addresses themes of resilience and new beginnings. Lyrically, the song is an anthem for the “lost and broken,” centering on the comforting refrain: “You’re gonna be alright… joy comes in the sunrise”. By early 2026, “SUNRISE” has solidified its place as a “modern vintage” favorite, bridging the gap between personal meditation and communal youth-group worship.
