“We Lift You Up” was recorded live at the Vineyard USA National Conferences—an environment marked by passionate worship, unity, and the presence of God. The song was born from two simple but arresting lines:
“There was a man with nails in His hands.
The weight of sin, the weight of man.”

From that moment, the writer set out to make the cross tangible - to help us imagine what it would be like to truly stand among the crowd two thousand years ago, to see the suffering of Jesus up close: the wounds, the stripes, the weight He carried, and yet the unshakable holiness that remained.

This song invites listeners into that scene. Into the reality that Jesus left glory, embraced humiliation, and endured the cross so our relationship with God could be restored - restored to intimacy, freedom, and the living hope that even death cannot steal.

With its raw honesty, vivid storytelling, and the energy of a room full of worshipers lifting their voices, We Lift You Up becomes a powerful moment of remembrance, gratitude, and adoration. It points the Church back to the center of our faith: Jesus, crucified and risen, the One we lift up above all..
