“Building the Body Up” by Elderman: A Harmonious Blend of Faith and Family

328

Elderman’s latest release, “Building the Body Up,” is a standout track from his new album, “Elderman: Heritage”. This inspirational song was conceived during a cross-country drive to California, where the singer-songwriter found himself inspired by a preacher’s sermon on Ephesians 4, which discusses the giving of gifts for the edification of the Body of Christ. The melody and lyrics came to Elderman as he sped across the desert, frantically jotting down his thoughts on a lunch bag—a testament to the spontaneity and passion behind his music.

“Building the Body Up” is just one highlight from the “Heritage” album, which follows Elderman’s acclaimed debut, “Wednesday In Vancouver”. The debut featured the Silver Award-winning music video “Rebekah’s Song (And I Prayed For You)” at the Wallachia International Film Festival in October 2022. Elderman’s new album started as a personal project for his grandchildren but evolved into a family-oriented collection when he realized the scope of writing a full children’s album.

Initially, Elderman aimed to create a children’s album, inspired by writing “Three Boys” in just a few days. However, as he progressed, he found that generating fresh ideas for children’s songs was more challenging than anticipated. This realization led him to incorporate his strengths, finishing the album with songs that appeal to both children and adults. The result is a mature, family-friendly album that entertains young minds while remaining enjoyable for parents.

“Building the Body Up” exemplifies this balance, offering spiritually uplifting content with a melody that resonates across generations. The song and the album as a whole reflect Elderman’s dedication to creating music that bridges the gap between children’s entertainment and adult sophistication. Fans of faith-based music and those looking for meaningful, family-oriented songs will find much to love in”Elderman: Heritage”.

With its roots in a spontaneous moment of inspiration and its culmination in a thoughtfully crafted album, “Building the Body Up” stands as a testament to Elderman’s musical journey and his commitment to uplifting and entertaining listeners of all ages.
