Come & Know Me
Come and Know Me is a musical experience that presents God’s story of redemption from the Fall to Jesus’ return. The eight songs, interspersed with Scripture readings, present a theological narrative of the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ—and invite listeners to respond.

“I passed on to you what was most important and what had also been passed on to me. Christ died for our sins, just as the Scriptures said. He was buried, and he was raised from the dead on the third day, just as the Scriptures said.”
About Come & Know Me
Come & Know Me is the first piece of music that we wrote together, beginning in 2014. We created this project to give space for believers and unbelievers alike to reflect on God’s redemption plan. Our heart behind Come and Know Me is to share the life, death and resurrection of Jesus Christ in a refreshing, creative and clear way.
From 2019 to 2021, we lived in Texas and studied at Dallas Theological Seminary to become better-equipped in songwriting. During this time, as we learned more about the Bible and who God is, we re-wrote much of Come & Know Me. Before returning to New Zealand, we created an audio and visual recording of the project with a number of creatives in Dallas. We released this recording in September 2022 on YouTube and online streaming platforms.
Each song sequentially steps through the Gospel message:
The Gust - we all have sinned and desperately need a Saviour
Heaven to Dust - The Son of God took on flesh, becoming the man Jesus of Nazareth
Hands of Sinners - Jesus Christ was crucified, paying the penalty of death we deserved
Darkness - Jesus breathed his last
Victory - Jesus rose again in victory over death
Come & Know Me - God offers us the free gift of everlasting life through faith in Jesus
Thank You - We thank God for offering us salvation and look forward to Jesus’ return
Response - What will be our response to God’s offer of salvation?
Live Presentations
Come & Know Me is well-suited to including in church gatherings, conferences, camps or other events. These songs inspire Christians to reflectively praise God for his work of salvation, while offering an invitation to those who haven’t yet placed their faith in Christ. Come & Know Me naturally leads into Communion or a Gospel-centred sermon. Here are some examples of how we’ve used this project within church services:
Singing the first four songs on Good Friday, which conclude with somber reflection on Jesus’ crucifixion
Singing the entire project on Easter Sunday, celebrating the transformative truth of Jesus’ life, death, burial and resurrection
Presenting Come & Know Me, followed by Communion, a Gospel message, and congregational songs for everyone to sing in response.
We can present Come & Know Me either with a full band or just the two of us. We are always open to talking further about which format would suit your gathering or event best. When presenting the project without a full band, we often use tracks from our studio recording to provide a full sound.
If you’d like to partner with us by having us present Come & Know Me with your local church or at an event you’re planning, we’d love to have a conversation. Click here to get in touch.
