Background

"Here Again" was released by Elevation Worship as the second single from the album Hallelujah Here Below in anticipation of its release, which was slated for September 28, 2018. [3] The song was recorded in March 2018 at Elevation Ballantyne in Charlotte, North Carolina. [4]

On February 1, 2019, a Spanish rendition of the song, titled "Encuéntrame Otra Vez (Here Again)" was released by Elevation Worship. [5] On April 12, 2019, a revamped version of "Here Again" was released on Elevation Worship's album Paradoxology (2019), a collection of revamped songs initially released on Hallelujah Here Below. [6]

Writing and development

Chris Brown had an interview with Kevin Davis, lead contributor at NewReleaseToday about the song and the inspiration behind it. [7] Davis asked about the personal story behind the song, to which Brown responded, saying:

This is one of the most personal songs we've written. It's always going to be one of those songs where I'll never forget the time, and the place the song was finished. It was written under difficult circumstances for me personally. I've seen loved ones pass away where they are caught in the middle between earth and heaven. And, I had gone through a season of life caught in the middle of family rhythms and ministry. "Here Again" started with the concept of being "here in the middle" and meeting God in that place. Later, when we came back to the song, we were in another season of reflection and not knowing what was ahead. Things didn't look like they used to. In that moment, it was a lightbulb moment for us to turn to Genesis 28 and Jacob's dream. He had been a cheat and a liar, and he was not a great guy. He had gone through a journey and then had this revelation where he sees the ladder going up to heaven and says the Lord has been in this place. That was the turning point for finishing this song. — Chris Brown, NewReleaseToday [7]
