Released digitally as part of the album El Shaddai on March 24, 2023, “Love Lifted Me” later received its official music video on April 1, 2023. The song appears as the third video release from the project, showcasing the group’s rich vocal arrangement and signature six-part harmonies.
The performance features members including Amos Wasswa, Asaph, Elijah, Wasswa James, Joseph Luyima Tebor, and Kato, whose voices blend beautifully to give the hymn a warm, worshipful, and deeply spiritual feel.
The message of “Love Lifted Me” is rooted in the biblical image of being rescued from sinking waters, inspired by the story of Saint Peter walking on water in the Gospel of Matthew. The hymn reflects on the saving love of Christ, reminding believers that when nothing else could help, God’s love was able to lift, restore, and rescue them.
With its peaceful vocal delivery and timeless message, Jehovah Shalom Acapella gives “Love Lifted Me” a fresh African gospel expression while preserving the hymn’s original spirit of grace, salvation, and thanksgiving.
