In February of 2006, Elevation Church launched its first worship experience. Two and a half short years later Elevation Church is meeting in multiple locations with a weekly attendance that has topped 4,000. Through God's favor and a relentless pursuit of His vision we have watched over 2,000 people profess faith in Jesus Christ during our second year of ministry.
Commitment to the vision of life transformation is what drives every corner of this ministry. These songs were birthed from the heart of this movement. Our hope is that through these songs, you'll experience a glimpse of this revolutionary move of God.

The song "Yours" by Elevation Worship is a heartfelt ode to God's majesty and holiness. The lyrics suggest that everything in the universe revolves around God's throne and His glory is beyond our human comprehension. However, despite His exalted position, He chose to be sacrificed for the sake of humanity, making Him the only one who is truly worthy of our worship. The chorus affirms God's supremacy, with the repetition of "And the praise is Yours" reinforcing the idea that God alone deserves our adoration. The song goes on to describe God as the beginning and end, the ruler of each moment, and forever holy. The final chorus brings together all the themes, hailing God's glory, worthiness and power.
What makes "Yours" an interesting song is that it was written as a response to a mass shooting at a church in Charleston, South Carolina, in 2015. In that tragic incident, nine African American worshippers were killed during a prayer meeting. The worship team at Elevation Church, where Elevation Worship originates, wanted to respond to this tragedy in a way that would honor the victims and comfort their families. The song "Yours" was birthed out of that desire to offer hope in the midst of pain, and it has since become a popular worship song.

Guys, Just remember, it really does all revolve around His throne. God rules the universe with Jesus enthroned on His right hand side. Not only that, we have Holy Spirit here on earth with us to lead and guide us according to Gods will. We are loved and never ever alone. Satan is a defeated foe he can only bluff with lies, and we overcome him by the blood of the Lamb and the word of our testimony!!

No better place. No greater feeling that being in God's presence. I can't explain this feeling. 3 months into salvation and every time I kneel before God I breakdown just because I can't imagine that He loved me and chose me. I thought I was helpless...sometimes I think I am... then I remember His truth. He loves me, not because of who I am but because of who He is. This is where I belong. In his presence.
