To celebrate Easter over the weekend, Kanye West dropped "Ultralight Prayer", an extended edit of "Ultralight Beam"'s outro featuring Kirk Franklin.
The brief gospel tune features a longer version of Franklin's original prayer, with harmonies from Kelly Price and a choir.
"Ultralight Beam" opens Kanye's latest record The Life Of Pablo, which he's been tinkering with ever since its release earlier this year.
Last month Kanye announced plans to follow up Pablo with a new LP this summer titled Turbo Grafx 16.
