The Christian and gospel community is mourning the passing of gospel legend Ron Kenoly, a worship leader whose ministry shaped generations around the world.

During his career, Ron was nominated for nine GMA Dove Awards and won Praise & Worship Album of the Year for Welcome Home in 1997.

Known for timeless anthems such as “Ancient of Days,” “Let There Be Praise,” “Whose Report Shall We Believe,” “Jesus Is Alive,” and “Lift Him Up,” his songs became staples of congregational worship at churches around the world.
