Erik Nieder
Info: http://eriknieder.com My name is Erik. I'm a songwriter -- a storyteller, of sorts. I was thirteen years old when I wrote my first song.
One of my greatest joys is seeing the Lord use songs to challenge and encourage hearts for His purposes and His glory. Little did I know, that tune was the beginning of a journey that I pray will one day usher me all the way to the gates. I am a firm believer that the power of an effective melody, coupled with the truth of the Gospel, is a force that can be used to change the world. To be honest,

Headed to Africa today (with a brief stop in Dubai) to lead worship. Only a 15 hr and 7 hr flight to go 😂 Don’t usually ask for prayers on here, but if you’re so inclined please pray for...
-My fam as this is definitely the farthest I’ve been away from home 😳
-That the Lord would use the songs that I sing to share the Gospel
-That I’d come home with a deeper love for Jesus and his church
Sometimes I feel like I can relate to the psalmist David more than I'd like to admit...
Read more than a couple of Psalms, and you’ll see what I mean. David experiences sweet and intimate worship unto the Lord, beautiful moments of triumph. “How precious to me are your thoughts, God! How vast is the sum of them!” (Psalm 139:17). And then — in seemingly an instant — we find him pleading with the Lord to “Slay the wicked! Away from me you who are bloodthirsty!” (Psalm 139:19).
My song "Faithful" was inspired by Psalm 139, 2 Timothy 2:13 and Luke 15:11-31. Diving into all of this in this devotional video. Enjoy!

Art and metrics can make for a volatile relationship. Can numbers be a helpful indicator and a profitable source of feedback? No question. But I’m learning they can also be a false judge of success. And for me, an instant idol.
Same goes for ministry. Maybe even more so.. Whether your church seats thousands, or you’re a part-time pastor setting out and picking up a few chairs in your local YMCA every Sunday morning, the goal is the same — To tell of and live out the Gospel. To go and make disciples. And the longer I’m in it, the more I’m convinced the former is no greater than the latter. The big is no better than the small, and vice versa. The Lord is pleased with and uses them both.. The coffee’s just better at the mega church, but the brighter the lights and bigger the stage, the harder it is to see your people 🤷🏻♂️
So here’s my confession.. a month or so ago I had to finally delete my Spotify artist account because it was becoming that idol. The growth was inexplicable and encouraging to say the least.. I left a large church to lead worship at summer camp and the numbers sky-rocketed. It’s honestly been nuts and only a God thing and I’m grateful for it... But the moment the metrics started trending downward ever so slightly a month or so ago, I saw the shadow I was living in. The false affirmation I was seeking in a statistic.
So if I’m gonna share this (imo) amazing graphic, then I owe it to you to share the whole picture. The numbers will go up and down, but the goal remains the same. To share the Gospel. To make disciples. One song at a time. And it blows my mind that 1 million people, on Spotify alone, were encouraged this year by my music. It’s amazing. And if you’re in that number, thank you for listening and letting these songs into your world. I pray they ministered to your soul as they have mine. Seriously, thank you 🙌🏼
So here’s to 2023.. to serving the art over the algorithm. Serving the people over production. Serving the mission over the metric. Let’s do it for the least of these 🙏🏼 .. One TikTok at a time

I’m drowning in Your mercy
Deeper than the sea
I’m buried in forgiveness
Like a landslide over me
Now I sing forever
A song of victory
I’m rising up in freedom
As you’re resurrecting me
