Reverb Worship PH, CBN Asia’s music arm, invites listeners to experience God’s light
and hope in their 2025 Christmas anthem, “Liwanag.” Stream it on all major digital
music platforms worldwide starting November 28.
In a year marked by uncertainty, natural calamities, and societal challenges, many
Filipinos have felt weighed down by confusion and darkness. Liwanag, performed by Hazel Faith and Caleb Santos, shines as a timely reminder that true hope is found in Jesus—the light of the world, and the real reason for this season.
Inspired by Isaiah 9:2 which foretells Jesus as the great light for people walking in darkness, the music label’s songwriters penned the single with that message in mind—and to encourage listeners to welcome His light into their lives.
“I felt overwhelmed and doubted I could find joy or celebrate Christmas amid so much darkness,” songwriter Ivy Catucod recalled. “I realized I was focusing too much on negatives and forgetting that Jesus, magnified above all, is the true light, our hope.”
Co-writers Joselle Feliciano and Shekinah Gram echo the same reflections, and highlight the creative touches that listeners will enjoy, including the use of a choir in the bridge—a first for a Reverb Worship song.
“Hearing 52 tracks of voices praising Jesus brings a smile to my face, and I hope to His as well. The beat drop in the chorus is something new. I am excited to see how peoplewill dance or react to it!” Shekinah shared.
Joselle added, “I am pleased by how the choir exultation came together—layering worship declarations with musical references to Shekinah Gram’s Hesus Aming Hari and the classic Christmas hymn, Come All Ye Faithful. To me, it feels like a small glimpse of what worship in Heaven might sound like.”
