Just a few months after releasing the first song of Inhoud Huis Musiek’s new praise and worship platform, The Shelter, Arnold de Wet is back in the spotlight with a brand-new worship song that speaks to the heart.

EL SHADDAI, which he created with Johan Vorster and Francois Lessing, was inspired by the belief that you can find peace and comfort in God’s arms when you are going through difficult times.
“In Psalm 131, David says that he finds peace and comfort with God, like a baby in his mother’s arms. EL SHADDAI is the name of God that captures this idea”,
explains the gospel singer.
“Just like a baby in his mother’s arms has everything he needs; God provides everything we need.”
This song is a source of hope in the difficult times we are currently facing, and Arnold believes that it will appeal to listeners of all ages.
The music video, conceptualized by Johan Vorster, was filmed and produced for Inhoud Huis Musiek by Jannes Erasmus and Daniel Rademeyr.
“We wanted to choose a location that would depict God’s greatness and chose Naude’s Neck, because it is the highest point in South Africa,”
Arnold Shares.
EL SHADDAI follows in the successful footsteps of This Is Who I Am Without You, which was very well received by the public and was the perfect way to introduce Johan Vorster and Jacomien de Wet’s platform for modern worship music to the world.
Arnold grew up in Hartbeespoortdam and is the son of the well-known singer, Jan de Wet. Growing up, he was always surrounded by musicians, which ignited his passion for music.
He entered the music industry more than two decades ago with the release of an album through former record company, Maranatha, after which he set aside his music dream for seventeen years.
It only reignited recently, and after recording his previous single, Run, he crossed paths with Inhoud Huis Musiek, who approached him to form part of their new project.
He is currently busy creating new material for a live praise and worship album, scheduled for release at the end of the year.
EL SHADDAI is a moving song that brings hope and comfort in difficult times.
