Beneath the towering arches of a breathtaking cathedral, Johnny Markin strums his guitar, his voice soaring like a prayer set to melody. With “The Mystery Of Faith (Christ Has Died)”, he distills centuries of belief into a few powerful words, breathing new life into an ancient creed. “God comes into time and space”, he sings, bridging the sacred and the modern in a way that feels both intimate and grand. This is more than just a song, it’s an invitation, a passage through time where tradition meets fresh inspiration. And it’s right here, on Slash Music, that we bring it to you.
