GUIDE ME HOME

What if, after everything you've been through, something was still calling you home?

OUT 14 SEPTEMBER 2026

Guide Me Home is an inspirational pop-rock anthem about faith, hope, redemption and the search for something greater than ourselves.

Written and created by Australian artist Jayden Moorea, the song explores a universal question: when life takes us into our darkest places, what do we turn to for guidance?

You don’t have to be religious to understand that feeling.

Sometimes we call it God.
Sometimes we call it faith.
Sometimes we call it hope.
Sometimes we simply call it the voice inside us telling us not to give up.

Guide Me Home is about that voice.

ABOUT THE MUSIC VIDEO

The music video tells the story of a man who has spent years running from his past, chasing success, losing his way and eventually finding himself alone on a deserted American highway.

He has reached his own valley of darkness.

Then someone appears.

An older, wiser stranger joins him on the road. He doesn’t judge him. He doesn’t lecture him. He simply walks beside him.

And slowly, the journey changes.

The stranger represents something different to everyone watching. For some, he may be God. For others, a guardian, a father figure, a higher power, or simply the part of ourselves that refuses to let us give up.

Because sometimes being guided home isn’t about finding a place.

It’s about finding yourself again.

STILL SHOTS FROM THE MUSIC VIDEO

FROM SONGWRITER JAYDEN MOOREA

As someone who has always been reluctant to declare my religious beliefs or ideas, I never imagined writing a song about God, religion, or anything spiritual, but after being thrust into the most challenging decade of my life and somehow coming out the other side with little idea how, I felt that there was a higher power that guided me through this time of my life.

–

In 2013, I witnessed my partner take her own life, and six years later I was charged with her murder. It was while I was sitting in a prison cell for ten days awaiting my bail application, that I mumbled possibly the first real prayer of my life. I said, “God. If you’re real, give me a sign.” I had never really prayed before, so I had no idea what I was doing.

–

Not even five minutes after my disjointed prayer, the cell door opened and an older man said “Hi. I’m Alan. I’m from the local gospel church. Fancy a chat?”

–

My initial thoughts were “Well played God (You smart-ass)”

–

The following day I was released on bail, and six years later all charged against me were dropped, but that night set me on a journey that led me to read more than 600 books on religion and spiritualty and eventually to write this song.

–

I’ve always had a fascination for discovering the true meaning behind song lyrics, so when it came time for me to pen a song with a religious theme, I wanted to make sure that even though the theme was more subtle, that I expressed the real meaning behind the lyrics for others to relate to.

–

Typically, Christian music gets pigeon-holed and rarely sees airtime on commercial radio or in the mainstream charts due to the stigma some have with the openly outward “preaching” nature of the genre, so when it came time to write Guide me Home, I wanted the overarching theme to be one that was universal. The type of song that each person listening to it could relate to it based on their own beliefs and not those of the lyricist.

–

Two of my favourite songs about religion are songs that many people may not even relate to God or spirituality. “Higher Love” by Steve Winwood and “Kyrie” by Mr Mister sit in rare space in that while they are religious songs, to most people, they are just classic hits.

–

This is what I set out to achieve when writing Guide me Home. I wanted to convey a message that, for those looking deeper could discover the song’s true meaning, while also punching out an inspirational anthem that people could enjoy regardless of their beliefs.
