Emerging country artist Micah Fletcher is wearing his heart on his denim sleeve in his soul-stirring new single "More Like Jesus". Co-written with Nashville heavyweight Phil O’Donnell, the track marks a powerful step forward for Fletcher’s artistic identity — pairing heartfelt lyricism with a modern country sound that resonates as much in the pews as it does in a pickup truck.

On the surface, "More Like Jesus" reads like a personal faith testimony, but dig deeper and it reveals something broader and beautifully universal: a love song rooted in redemption. Fletcher doesn’t just sing about being saved, he sings about being inspired to become someone better. Not through sermons or second chances, but through the quiet, consistent love of a woman who changed everything.

“She’s like good book verse in that old white church,” he sings in the opening lines, painting a vivid picture of a woman whose very presence inspires reverence. The Sunday-morning imagery sets the tone, but it’s the line “I just wanna be more like Jesus for her” that anchors the song’s emotional gravity. This isn’t just spiritual growth; it’s romantic devotion channeled through self-betterment.

Musically, "More Like Jesus" sits comfortably in today’s country landscape, with modern production and traditional heart. There’s a steady groove underpinning the melody, giving the song just enough drive without overpowering its message. It’s the kind of track you’d expect to hear in the middle of a backroads playlist, right between Morgan Wallen and Cody Johnson.

With this release, Micah Fletcher isn’t just putting out another radio-ready tune. He’s offering something deeper. Something honest. And maybe, just maybe, something holy.
