I am excited to announce that my new song, "I Feel The Rain" is available on ITUNES!!!

The music video for I Feel The Rain was filmed in the Durbanville Magic Forest.

Don't mind the belly, I was 5 months pregnant.

The video ends with the scripture because our land needs much prayer…

Our country needs to pray together for repentance and for grace and for our leaders to make the right choices… much healing still needs to take place in many hearts before we can properly move forward. Sadly there is still so much racism and so much pain among the people of South Africa.

Sadly our leaders are making so many wrong and corrupt choices that are hurting the people of this beautiful land.

I pray that this song will encourage people who are in a season of waiting, to keep praying for the rain, to keep hoping, to know that the clouds will bring forth the miracles that God has promised.

I feel the rain:

I see you there in the darkness

You think you’re alone

But if you look up at the stars you will know who you are

There’s something about the clouds tonight

There’s something about the air

It’s almost time almost time and son the rain will fall down

I feel the rain

I feel the rain

It’s coming, coming, coming, coming

It’s coming, coming, coming

I hear you cry to break the silence

Hear every word, hear every prayer

If you listen to the wind you will hear me call

There’s something about the clouds tonight

There’s something about the air

It’s almost time almost time and son the rain will fall down

I feel the rain

I feel the rain

It’s coming. coming, coming, coming

It’s coming, coming, coming

Slowly drifting down to earth

Slowly drifting down.

PSALTED TV SHOOT 

"A day in the life of Melissa Hertz..." 

I still can't believe that I will be featured on Psalted, a television show on SABC 3!

The first part of the show was filmed at Green Point Park, Cape Town. Because I am a homeschooling mother, and because most of my days are spent homeschooling my precious children, my children came along too. They played at the park and on the swings and jungle gyms while we did the interview.

The second part of the show was recorded at the Rhodes Memorial and Cecilia forest Cape Town. 

I was doing a photoshoot that day to promote my music.

I was sponsored with a make-up artist from Top to Toe Makeup Academy and was so grateful for the beautiful make-up makeover. I wanted a themed shoot so the make-up style was hugely important.

I wanted a ''warrior bride of Christ" themed shoot so I visited prop shops in Woodstock for props. The props, usually used for film shoots, were rented for a good price and were authentic and so beautiful. I rented a sword, a bow and a quiver filled with arrows for the shoot.

I am so very thankful for the opportunity to share my story and my music on television! All glory to Jesus for even making this possible!
