Welcome to Second Verses
Welcome to all attending Keith & Kristyn Getty’s An Irish Christmas. We’re thrilled to have you here! As you enjoy the sounds of the season, we invite you to explore Second Verses, a nonprofit organization that uses the transformative power of songwriting to bring hope and healing to those who need it most.
About Second Verses
At Second Verses, we believe in the healing power of song. Our mission is to bring the light of Christ into challenging situations through music.Through two key initiatives, we aim to touch lives deeply and share hope with those who feel forgotten:
Songwriting Programs in Correctional Facilities: We offer a unique outlet for inmates, using music and songwriting to inspire self-reflection, healing, and positive change.
Watch: Hands & Scars - A song written by inmates in Tennessee
HopeSong for Cancer Patients: In collaboration with professional songwriters, we create personalized songs of hope and encouragement for cancer patients to uplift spirits and share strength through music. Know someone facing cancer? Share HopeSong with them and they can request a songwriter pairing to experience the power of music as they write a song of hope together!

“I have been privileged to minister with Second Verses at a women’s prison in Tennessee. I witnessed God ministering to women’s hearts through music. The Holy Spirit and the power of God’s gift of music opened many hearts to express their pain and receive truth and encouragement. They learned songwriting tools so they can continue their journey of healing through self-expression, and crying out to God, with glimmers of hope. Without Jesus, we are all prisoners of our own making.”
