Brandon Lake shared in interview with Billboard that song came about during a trip to Australia to co-write with friends who were in Hillsong. [6] During a writing session with Benjamin Hastings at his apartment overlooking the Sydney Opera House,Lake discussed with Hastings over how they had nothing to God that is impressive,and how humbling it was,thus inspiring the lyrics of the song. [6] Unsatified with the initial production around the song,Lake decided to record the song in one-take with an acoustic guitar for an organic feel,the production of the final version being done afterward. [6]
"Gratitude" is composed in the key of B with a tempo of 78 beats per minute and a musical time signature of 6
8. [7]
Joshua Andre of 365 Days of Inspiring Media opined that "Gratitude" was "an album highlight,as we hear Brandon’s earnest emotion and raw honesty here,in pure unbridled praise and worship to God,on a song that would fit right at home on a Singalong album from Phil Wickham." [8] JubileeCast's Timothy Yap wrote in his review:"Overwhelmed by the grace of God,this song finds Lake so enthralled in the beauty of Christ that his only response is simply to sing hallelujah to Jesus." [9] Rob Allwright,reviewing for One Man In The Middle,said the contemplative sound was executed brilliantly on "Gratitude" explaining that "maybe it's more because of the subject matter which feels more heartfelt and genuine. There's a bit of a raw passion that comes out as the bridge echoes through with some great vocal work." [10] Katie Clinebell of Air1 described the song as "Brandon Lake’s humble offering of thanksgiving to an infinite God. This gentle ballad explores the tension between Lake’s overwhelming gratitude towards God and the corresponding awareness of the limitations of his own finite humanity." [11]
