Here Be Lions

Hope UC Nashville

Amanda Janson

Amanda Janson has had the dream of pursuing music since an early age. After an unfulfilling pursuit of musical theater and Broadway, she knew there was something more to music and to life.

After giving her life to the Lord in 2013, Amanda began leading worship and writing songs about her faith and testimony. She never expected music to take this route and she couldn't imagine using her love for it in any other way than to serve and glorify the Lord. 

Amanda has had the opportunity to release five singles since her debut single “In the Name of Jesus” in 2022, which gained radio streams within the first year. She has also been able to see songs she’s written on be released through others such as worship artist, Leah Paschall and 7 Hills Worship. 

With more clear vision than ever, Amanda’s greatest desire is to release music that leads listeners into a deeper relationship with Jesus and is expectant for her future music projects to reflect her heart for the church and Gods people. She is excited to break out of the box and offer new a fresh and new sound for worship.

Gideon Roberts

Here Be Lions is a movement of worshippers and revivalists who believe in the power of God to radically transform lives and establish His Kingdom on earth. At our core, we burn to see ordinary people become extraordinary in God—business leaders, ministry leaders, and families alike—equipped with songs that carry truth, courage, and hope. We declare without hesitation that God IS moving and He IS using His people, and we refuse to live passive or defeated lives. We contend for healing, restoration, freedom, and resurrection power in every gathering, fighting for one another and lifting up the name of Jesus until His glory is revealed in our cities and across the nations.

HopeUC Nashville Worship is a local community on fire for Jesus, carrying a sound that shakes atmospheres and ignites revival in our city and beyond. We exist to awaken the Church in passionate, authentic worship—declaring both the majesty of God and the nearness of His presence, lifting high the name of Jesus until Nashville itself becomes an altar. Connected with HopeUC Australia, India, and churches across the U.S., we are part of a global movement united to see His Kingdom come. Through powerful gatherings, city-wide prayer and worship nights, outreach that meets practical needs, and songs that carry testimony from our streets to the nations, we refuse to settle for routine. We burn for revival here, now, and everywhere God sends us.
