Wrong or Right Set the Template for 42 Heart In Hands Ministry Tracks in Under Five Months
Two Versions in October, a Shorter Take in December, and a Message That Never Moved
Heart In Hands Ministry started its streaming catalogue in October 2025 with Wrong or Right, a two-track EP. It set one song in two genres, an Alternative Rock Version and a Gospel R&B Version. Four more releases followed in under five months. Cecil George Smith composed the song as a plea to end racial violence. Its case rests on the scripture behind the Golden Rule.
Heart In Hands Ministry’s rock take sits in the playlist below, and the ministry’s full run of coverage is collected on the Heart In Hands Ministry artist profile. Wrong or Right reached this desk through PopHits.Co Music Charts, which verifies independent artists and places their releases across its network of music news desks. Press play on the six-minute version, then read on.
The run reads best as a list. First came Wrong or Right, two tracks in October 2025. Then, on 31 December, the ministry issued 911 For Jesus, a 17-track album. After that, To Be Continued went out twice on 20 January 2026, as a Rock single and a Reggae single. Finally, I Have A Dream arrived on 24 February with 21 tracks. In total, that makes five releases and 42 track listings between October and February. Apple Music files every one of them under Christian music.
The pace is the first number that stands out. The second is how often the catalogue returns to the same songs. Wrong or Right appears on two of the five releases, and To Be Continued appears on three. In fact, seven songs on the February album had already appeared on the December one. Each comes back with a new running time.
So the EP set the method the rest of the catalogue follows. Write one song, hear what it does in another setting, then release both.
Three Takes on Wrong or Right, From a Six-Minute Rock Version to an Album Cut Under Four Minutes
The two EP tracks share a title, a composer and a message. Their lengths, however, differ. The rock take runs 6:03, while the R&B take runs 4:55. Then the song returned on the December album under its plain title and ran 3:57. That cut is two minutes and six seconds shorter than the six-minute version, so it is roughly two-thirds as long.
The song says God’s standard decides right and wrong, rather than race, upbringing or opinion. Its hinge is the line that the choice is not always black and white, only wrong or right. It also leans on three pieces of scripture: the peace and goodwill of Luke 2, the two great commandments, and the Golden Rule. The song answers rising violence and what the ministry calls modern-day lynchings. Above all, it asks listeners to see one another as brothers and sisters.
Cecil George Smith holds the composer credit on the EP’s rock track, and Mark Of Excellence Productions, Inc. appears as its source. The same company also handled the next step. On 24 September 2026, almost a year after the EP, Mark of Excellence Productions posted two videos to YouTube seven seconds apart. One is the official music video, which its description frames as an alternative rock reimagining. The other is a separate video for the R&B cut.
For rock listeners, the Alternative Rock Version is the place to start. Listeners who arrive from contemporary gospel, however, will find the Gospel R&B Version closer to home. Meanwhile, the album cut is the quickest way into the song for anyone short on time.
Wrong or Right and the Heart In Hands Ministry Habit of Re-Cutting Songs Across Rock, R&B and Reggae
The habit runs through the whole catalogue. For example, To Be Continued exists as a 5:31 album track, a 6:16 Rock single and a 4:39 Reggae single. Likewise, Forgive Me Lord grows from 3:59 to 4:44 between the two albums. It Is What It Is goes from 3:18 to 3:49, while No Turning Back moves the other way, from 3:35 to 3:14. Similarly, Rocking For Jesus returns as Rocking 4 Jesus, and Twenty-Four Seven returns as 24/7.
Christian rock has argued for this kind of crossing since the start. Larry Norman made the case in a song title, Why Should the Devil Have All the Good Music, on the 1972 album Only Visiting This Planet. Critics still name that record as a cornerstone of the genre, and the six-minute version of Wrong or Right makes the same argument. Bob Dylan, by contrast, came from the other direction on Slow Train Coming in 1979. There, a rock musician made a gospel record and won a Grammy for Gotta Serve Somebody. The EP’s other track is the ministry’s step in that direction.
From the RockCharts.News Curator Team: “What earns Wrong or Right its place with us is how plainly it argues. It takes a side on racial violence and keeps it at 6:03, at 4:55 and at 3:57. The longest of the three gives that argument the most room.”
The titles around it point the same way. Hymn Of Unity and Peace and Somebody’s Child sit on 911 For Jesus, while Seventy Times Seven and Held Together sit on I Have A Dream. Five releases in, Wrong or Right still reads as the clearest statement of what the catalogue is for.
