"Do It Again" is a song performed by American contemporary worship band Elevation Worship. Written by Mack Brock, Chris Brown, Matt Redman and Steven Furtick,[2] the song was released as the first single from their 2017 album There Is a Cloud.[3][4] It was released to Christian radio on February 23, 2018. The song peaked at No. 6 on the US Hot Christian Songs chart, becoming their second Top 10 single from that chart. It lasted on the charts for 33 weeks, their second longest charting song.[5] The song is played in a B-flat major key, and 172 beats per minute.[6]
What change does Elevation Worship refer? What battle is won? Is this internal warfare? Addiction? Isis? North Korea? Once again, this is intentionally vague so that their audience can fill in the blank with their own situation. This makes Biblical examination impossible.
Given the explicit reference to Jesus and implicit connection to faith, those who are not Christians should immediately understand it as a faith-based song. They may not understand the church lingo, such as faith, moving mountains, and God making a way, but then again, it was probably not written with evangelistic reach in mind.

This is untrue. The song is written in 1st person *singular* posessive tense, not plural. This song is not claiming to have never failed Elevation Worship corporately, but rather this is an individual person *I/Me* praying and worshipping directly to God. It is Davidic in tone.
In the rest of the psalm, David extends what he has learned through whatever this trail was to 27 All the ends of the world shall remember and turn unto the LORD: and all the kindreds of the nations shall worship before thee.
2even to day is my complaint bitter: my stroke is heavier than my groaning.
3Oh that I knew where I might find him! that I might come even to his seat!
4I would order my cause before him, and fill my mouth with arguments.
5I would know the words which he would answer me, and understand what he would say unto me.
6Will he plead against me with his great power? No; but he would put strength in me.
7There the righteous might dispute with him; so should I be delivered for ever from my judge.
8Behold, I go forward, but he is not there; and backward, but I cannot perceive him:
9On the left hand, where he doth work, but I cannot behold him: he hideth himself on the right hand, that I cannot see him:
10But he knoweth the way that I take: when he hath tried me, I shall come forth as gold.
Join us as over the next few weeks, Ashley shares what God has placed on her heart about a few of the worship songs we sing here at Hillside. As we take a closer look at the words and meanings, we can lean into what it might look like to worship God in new and deeper ways!
Dear Father, thank you for being the God of again. Remind me that you are always for me and working things together for my good. Help me remember that you care about each of my needs and are delighted to provide for me again and again.
What walls do you want to see come down? It might be a difficult or broken relationship with a family member or friend. It might be your battle against a besetting sin. It might be massive barriers in ministry.
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.
Elevation Worship is passionate about producing songs for the local church that connect others to God. Their main priority is to create an atmosphere of worship so people can encounter Jesus personally. Their most recent album CAN YOU IMAGINE? released on May 19, 2023 and topped the Billboard Top Christian Albums chart during street week, the 7th album in their career to do so.
