Fresh off his nomination for NEXT BIG THING at the 14th Annual We Love Christian Music Awards, NRT Music announces the release of Heart Surgery Vol. 2, the deeply personal new album from Psalms Of David. The follow-up to Heart Surgery Vol. 1 continues the raw, confessional journey, presenting more than just a collection of songs—it unfolds as a spiritual operation, exploring sin, surrender, suffering, and the redemptive work of God on a broken heart.
Opening with “Heart Surgery (Psalm 51),” the album anchors itself in David’s prayer of repentance—”Create in me a clean heart, O God.” The track embodies total submission before the Great Surgeon, inviting God to do the painful yet necessary work of transformation. From there, the project navigates the recurring struggle of growth and humility in “SCHOOL,” testimony of rescue and dependence in “Where Else?,” and the emotional unraveling of “Overwhelmed,” confronting pride, idols, and self-deception.
The album’s turning point comes with “job’s song :.(,” a modern reflection inspired by the biblical story of Job. Even as everything is stripped away, the song declares an unshakable truth: salvation cannot be taken. That declaration flows into the hidden “Interlude 2 (Already Saved),” where what feels like loss is revealed as resurrection, and flesh gives way to new life and eternal perspective.
Closing with “Reverence,” the record ends on a quiet, trembling note—an awe-filled response to encountering God’s holiness. Having seen himself clearly—and God even more so—Psalms Of David concludes not with resolution, but with wonder at the grace and healing he has experienced.
Known offstage as Ethan David, Psalms Of David writes with honesty and vulnerability, crafting music for listeners who recognize their brokenness and need for a Savior. His songs weave personal testimony with scriptural truth, never avoiding pain but always pointing toward hope and restoration in Jesus. With Heart Surgery Vol. 2, his prayer remains: that the lost would come home, the broken be made whole, and listeners would encounter not just an artist—but the real Jesus.
