NASHVILLE, Tenn. / CHARLOTTE, N.C. (January 23, 2026) — GRAMMY Award-winning, multi-platinum group Elevation Worship announces the upcoming release of their new live album, SO BE IT, arriving February 20. In celebration of the announcement, the group is releasing the album’s title track today, with Pre-Add and Pre-Save available now.
Marking the group’s 18th album, SO BE IT is a bold declaration of faith for the Church—an affirmation that when God speaks, His word is final.
“‘SO BE IT’ declares the sovereignty and finality of God’s word,” shares Elevation Worship’s Tiffany Hudson. If God spoke it, it’s as good as done. We can be confident that nothing could ever overturn or override the word of God.”
The title track, “SO BE IT,” is an anthemic proclamation of what has already been settled. With commanding authority and a sweeping, cinematic sound, the song declares the finished work of Christ and the victory of the risen Jesus. Every movement reinforces its core conviction: God has spoken, the work is complete, and nothing remains unresolved.
SO BE IT is a live worship album recorded in a church setting, capturing a defining declaration of faith—when God speaks, His word is final. Rooted in the authority and sovereignty of God, the project reflects a community responding in worship to what has already been settled in heaven. Each song flows from a posture of agreement, aligning hearts with God’s truth and trusting fully in His promises.
The album features 10 tracks, including the Dove Award–winning and GRAMMY-nominated “I Know a Name,” along with “Jesus Be the Name” and “God I’m Just Grateful.” A defining thread throughout the album centers on the authority and power of Jesus’ name—where “I Know a Name” testifies to its power, “Jesus Be the Name” magnifies and exalts it.
Elevation Worship will also embark on The Elevation Nights Tour, featuring Steven Furtick and ELEVATION RHYTHM, kicking off February 24, 2026. Tickets are available now.
