Gospel artist Joyce Okwaro releases a deeply personal new project that transforms the spiritual season of waiting into a powerful collection of worship songs.

In an industry often obsessed with noise and spectacle, Joyce Okwaro has chosen the path of the mystic. Her latest musical offering is less of an album and more of an altar, built from stones gathered during a season of profound silence and waiting.
They say that true art is not created; it is received. Okwaro’s new release confirms this adage. Rather than rushing to capitalize on trends, she retreated into the quiet, allowing these songs to gestate as private revelations before birthing them as public melodies. The result is a project that feels intimate yet expansive, turning the often-agonizing period of "waiting on God" into a lush soundscape of worship.
The core theme of this release is the spiritual discipline of patience. In a world that demands instant gratification, Okwaro’s lyrics invite the listener to slow down and find the divine in the delay. Tracks like "Asante" are not just songs; they are sonic journals documenting the transition from anxiety to gratitude. Her voice, rich with experience, carries the weight of someone who has stared into the void and found a presence there.
Musically, the project avoids the trap of over-production. The instrumentation is designed to serve the message, not overshadow it. It creates a space for the listener to enter in, to use the music as a vehicle for their own introspection. This is "waiting" not as a passive state, but as an active form of worship.
Joyce Okwaro has positioned herself as a chaplain to the weary. This release is a balm for those who feel forgotten or stuck in life's waiting rooms. By sharing her private revelations, she validates the struggles of her audience while pointing them toward a hope that transcends their immediate circumstances.
As these songs begin to circulate in churches and playlists across Nairobi and beyond, they serve as a gentle reminder that silence is not absence. In the hands of a gifted artist like Okwaro, the waiting season becomes the most fertile ground for creativity. This is worship refined by fire, and it burns with a quiet, steady light.
