This article was originally published  by The Epoch Times: Country Singer Cole Swindell Releases Ballad Inspired by Words of Charlie Kirk’s Widow

On September 26, country music sensation Cole Swindell unveiled his latest single, ‘Make Heaven Crowded,’ a heartfelt ballad that draws inspiration from the poignant declaration made by Erika Kirk, widow of the late Turning Point USA founder, Charlie Kirk.

This new release, a melodic plea urging listeners to embrace Jesus and adhere to biblical principles, made its debut to much fanfare on Friday.

In a reflective chorus, Swindell poses thought-provoking questions: “What if churches had longer lines outside than bars on Friday nights? What if people prayed for those who oppose them?” He follows with the hopeful assertion: “This old world will look a lot better than we found it if we make heaven crowded.”

Swindell, 42, who first captured the country music scene with his self-titled album in 2014, previously teased his new track on Instagram, co-authored with Greylan James, Joel Hutsell, and Blake Pendergrass. This preview appeared shortly after Erika Kirk’s moving public address following her husband’s tragic death.

Charlie Kirk was fatally shot on September 10 while engaging with college students at Utah Valley University. The short life of the conservative commentator, who was a father to two young children, ended at the age of 31.

During her first public remarks on September 12, Erika expressed her enduring connection with her husband: “I know my husband is still here, watching over us… rest in the arms of our Lord, hearing the words we all yearn to hear: ‘Well done, my good and faithful servant.’” She eloquently noted how humbled she felt, believing that Charlie is alongside Jesus, fulfilling his dream of “making heaven crowded.”

Swindell was deeply impacted by Erika’s emotional words. “The heartbreak I felt, and still feel, for her and their children was immense. It made me reflect on my own family,” he stated, explaining the inspiration behind putting these feelings to music.

After releasing a brief clip of the song, Swindell experienced an unprecedented response from fans. “It’s astonishing what music can do when rooted in real-life experiences… I believe this could be the most significant song of my career, and I am comfortable with that,” he shared.

Just a day post-release of “Make Heaven Crowded,” he celebrated its swift ascent on streaming platforms, revealing, “I woke up to a text this morning that we were No. 2 in all genres, and No. 1 in country… unbelievable. Thank you for your support; it genuinely means the world. This song carries a message larger than any I’ve worked on before.”

In an impassioned Instagram address, he urged his audience: “Let’s not retreat to divisions. This song serves as a reminder that we can come together, treat each other better, and let’s share the message of Jesus.”
