Brandon Lake and Cody Johnson have finally teamed up for a brand-new version of “When A Cowboy Prays.”

Lake originally released “When A Cowboy Prays” as a solo track back in September, and fans began asking Lake to record another version with Johnson. Finally their wish became reality.  Johnson said: “Brandon apparently played this song sometime back and called me and said, ‘would you be willing to be on the song?’ because you demanded it,” speaking directly to fans.  Lake chimed in to say, “Y’all broke the internet,” and Johnson continued, “I immediately said yes. I’m a huge fan. It’s called ‘When A Cowboy Prays.’ Cody Johnson, Brandon Lake. You said it, you got it.”

Lake said on social media that hearing Johnson’s voice on the song took it to another level: “The one and only @codyjohnson yall!!! I could not be more HONORED & PROUD of this version of “When A Cowboy Prays.” I tear up every time I listen! So thankful for this collab and this friendship,” he shared before adding, “Cowboy or not, I’m praying it blesses every one of you and reminds ya the power of prayer.”

Johnson echoed that sentiment in a previous post, writing “Can’t wait for y’all to hear this… Honored to be part of such an incredible song.”

Lake will continue his King of Hearts Tour in March, while Cody Johnson just launched his 2026 run this February.
