Background notes

Archive material and source history

Opwekking formed in the Netherlands in 1983, started by a group of young musicians and singers. Evert Jan de Wijs was involved early on. They became known for contemporary Christian music with straightforward melodies and lyrics, like their song 'Heer U Bent Welkom'.

Their catalog includes albums such as 'Opwekking 1' from 1983 and 'Opwekking 23' from 2008. Other songs include 'Ik Geloof In God de Vader' and 'Abba Vader'. Over time, different musicians have been part of the group, including Erik de Kas, Kees Kraayenoord, and Elisa Krijgsman.

In 2006, there was some discussion about the band when it became known that some members were in same-sex relationships. This led to conversations within Christian circles about faith and acceptance. The group continued making music, with releases like 'Thank You, Lord' in 2013 and 'The Sound of Heaven' in 2018.
