With “Where I Find God,” Stevie Lee Woods & The NRL Band offer a rendition that feels less like a performance and more like a quiet arrival. The song unfolds gently, carrying its message with a kind of emotional ease that invites rather than insists. Rooted in country gospel yet unconfined by it, this version leans into sincerity, allowing the spiritual core of the track to emerge without excess.
Originally written by Larry Fleet, “Where I Find God” is reimagined here through a lens of lived experience. Woods approaches each line with calm assurance, his voice steady and unadorned, giving the impression that the meaning is being discovered in the moment. There is no rush to impress, only a careful attention to feeling.
The NRL Band supports this approach with tasteful restraint. Their instrumentation creates space rather than filling it, while Devin Callahan’s harmonies add warmth without shifting the center. Recorded between Mansion Studios in Branson and sessions in London, the production, guided by Chris Omartian and Stuart Epps, balances clarity with intimacy, polish with presence.
What stands out most is the song’s quiet conviction. It doesn’t attempt to define faith; it simply gestures toward it, locating it in the ordinary and the overlooked. In that sense, Stevie Lee Woods & The NRL Band’s “Where I Find God” becomes more than a cover; it becomes a moment of stillness, gently held and deeply felt..
