About “Here Again”
Elevation Worship's Chris Brown has said the song came out of a season marked by personal loss, telling NewReleaseToday, "It's always going to be one of those songs where I'll never forget the time, and the place." The writing found its direction in Genesis 28, where Jacob wakes from his dream and realizes God was in that place all along, shaping the song's theme of meeting God in the middle of uncertainty. It was recorded live in March 2018 at Elevation Ballantyne in Charlotte, North Carolina, and released in August 2018 as a single from Hallelujah Here Below.
