Jumbo Aniebiet Releases Spirit-Stirring Worship Single “Be Lifted” ||

WASHINGTON DC – Nigerian-American music producer, Singer-songwriter and Trumpeter Jumbo Aniebiet has put forward his 3rd release in 90 days titled “Be Lifted.”

“Be Lifted” was not part of Jumbo’s original release plan which was spread over a period reaching to January 2025. While reviewing the recordings from the 10th edition of “We Will Worship” (an annual worship outreach known as “We Will Worship” which is currently in its tenth year), held at the Civic Center in downtown Silver Spring, Maryland, the spirit of God impressed on Jumbo’s heart that this powerful moment of worship needed to be released. The words of the song are simple;

“Jesus be lifted high Yahweh be lifted high All power belongs to you In my life be lifted high.”

Jumbo believes that this should be the earnest cry of the heart of God’s children. He says “It is time we move past mere words and pointing fingers at others to truly embracing our identity in Christ as sons and daughters. By doing so, we and nations will become a reflection of our father who is in heaven.”

“Be Lifted” is his third single in 90 days with four more singles scheduled for release and should all have been released by January 2025.

Boasting collaborations with the likes of Nathaniel Bassey, Deborah Lukalu, Jonathan Nelson, and Timothy Reddick, and songwriting credits with Maverick City, Jumbo has become a geyser of Sunday morning worship anthems such as “Imela,” “Incredible God,” “Most High,” “Okaka” and “Running.”

As a musician who happened to be a Christian, he would instinctively take advantage of his familial roots in the pentecostal church to hone his skills as a trumpeter with the hopes of becoming a performing Jazz artist. In 2009, it seemed that his dream was about to take off as he released his debut album Brand New Day. During this period, his understanding of the Gospel and its message of hope brought a new perspective.  Tragically, in 2010, while playing recreational soccer, he collapsed. After being rushed to the hospital, it was determined that he experienced a partial stroke that left him paralyzed on the left side of his body. While recovering at the hospital, he had a divine encounter where the Lord told him that he had preserved his life so that he could use his voice to glorify him.

In 2014, after his recovery, he had his first live recording which captured the songs on his sophomore and debut Gospel album Worship4ever, released in 2015 which included hit tracks “Bigger Than,” “Hosanna,” “You Are,” and “Imela.” In addition, the live recording would represent the beginning of an annual worship outreach known as “We Will Worship” which is currently in its tenth year. Since then he has released four albums GraceFull (2017); Jesus Now (2020); Pages (2022) and his most recent album We Will Worship [Live](2023).

Jumbo has had the privilege of sharing his gift in several countries in the world to include, South Africa, Nigeria, Ghana, Canada and Belize. He serves as the minister of Music at the Jesus House DC.
