Sharing God’s light through creativity
Welcome to the official website of Mathew Viray, a Filipino American Christian worship artist, songwriter, composer, producer, philanthropist, and creative storyteller based in Las Vegas, Nevada. A former photographer turned musician, Mathew now dedicates his creative life to creating contemporary Christian worship music rooted in faith, prayer, hope, and real life testimony.
Mathew’s creative journey began behind the camera, capturing emotion, stories, and light through photography and visual storytelling. Today, that same passion is expressed through worship music designed to glorify God, encourage others, and inspire healing, strength, and hope through faith. Written in both English and Tagalog, his original songs blend heartfelt emotion with worship shaped by personal struggles, perseverance, spiritual growth, and God’s grace.
Beyond music, Mathew is also known for using his platform to support and encourage struggling families and individuals through acts of kindness, community outreach, and unexpected blessings, especially in the Philippines and throughout Bohol. What began as quiet acts of generosity has grown into a faith driven mission focused on restoring hope, uplifting communities, and reminding people that even the smallest act of love can make a lasting difference.
Mathew is also the founder of Faith & Iron Apparel, a brand inspired by faith, discipline, perseverance, resilience, and inner strength. Whether through worship music, storytelling, creative projects, or outreach, his mission remains the same: to share God’s light through creativity and remind others they are seen, valued, loved, and never forgotten.

Trust the Transition
Trust the Transition is a high energy worship song I made for churches about those moments in life when God begins to close doors and we do not fully understand why. Sometimes we hold on to what feels safe and familiar, but God sees the bigger picture that we cannot see yet. This song is a reminder that even when life shifts and things feel uncertain, God is still leading every step.
There are seasons when God moves us out of our comfort so we can step into something greater that He has planned. It can feel uncomfortable and even confusing, but faith means trusting that God knows the future and is guiding us forward with purpose.
Trust the Transition is about learning to surrender control and believe that every change God allows is part of His plan. When He closes a door it is never to harm us, but to move us closer to where we are meant to be. Even when the path feels unfamiliar, we can walk in confidence knowing that God is faithful and He never leaves us.
My prayer is that this high energy worship song for churches encourages anyone who is going through change, uncertainty, or a new season in life. If God is leading you forward, you can trust that He is already preparing the way.
