Christian musician Forrest Frank has gone viral on TikTok after his new song “Your Way’s Better” caused the latest dance trend.
“Oh Lord, I need you now more than ever, would you put my heart back together? I searched the world ‘til my head hurt, just to find out your way’s better,” the lyrics to the song go as people perform a simple dance-along.
The trend caught fire on TikTok, launching to the Top 50 chart while the song was featured in over 250,000 videos. People from all walks of life got involved in the trend with videos surfacing from young kids to elderly people performing the dance and singing along to the song.
Going viral on TikTok is a dream come true for Frank who has blown up in the Christian music scene in recent years. His goal is to make music that everyone can enjoy while including the Gospel and worshipping the Lord.
“When I was growing up, I didn’t necessarily have cool Christian music to listen to,” Frank previously explained. “If I was going to the gym or if I was at the beach, it seemed like there weren’t really any Christian songs that would fit those facets of life, but there was great Christian music within the church and for worship. That actually kind of broke my heart; I would cry about it, and I’m not the most emotional guy.”

“So, I aspired to make Christian music that I think is cool,” he continued. “Not everyone’s going to like it, but I think it does serve a role in the sense of it being music that kids think is cool and want to have as their baseball walk-up song when they go up to the plate and listen to when they hang out with their friends.”
Going viral on TikTok proves that he is achieving his goal as Christians and non-Christians alike enjoy his songs. As he continues to find more and more success, Frank stays rooted in the Lord and turns all the glory back to God.
“It’s felt like God is just holding my hand through it, so I can’t take any credit for it. And I know that’s such a cliché thing to say, but with everything in my being, it feels like he’s holding my hand,” Frank said.
As he continues his rise through the ranks of Christian music, it is encouraging to see Frank keep his focus on Christ, knowing that everything he has comes from the Lord. At the same time, his music draws in new audiences and exposes them to the biblical truths.
