Elevation Worship is a music ministry of Elevation Church in Charlotte, NC, led by Pastor Steven Furtick. Pastor Steven, along with lead vocalist Chris Brown are credited with writing the title track on the Hallelujah Here Below album.
In an interview with CCLI, Chris covered how the original concept for the title track came from their interest in the ancient Christian Doxology and how it seemed to relate to our heavenly Father’s desire for the imperfect praise of broken people. That imperfection being held in comparison to the praises of His heavenly host.
Musically, this lengthy track (7:03) has a slow building and solemn melody of vulnerable praise with its repeating Hallelujahs in equal sets of three. Each set representing the Doxology’s proclamation for the trinity. The last stanza ends by naming Jesus Christ our King enthroned, All the praise is Yours forevermore, Hallelujah here below, All the praise is Yours.
The entire album was recorded over a night in March 2018 at Elevation Church's Ballantyne campus in Charlotte, North Carolina, where other Elevation Worship projects have also been recorded.
