[Ab] Great is [Bb] [Eb] Hallelujah.
Matt, it's great to be with [Ab] you.
[Eb] So good to be here.
What a wonderful place.
I don't think we could have picked a better spot to have this conversation.
We're actually here in LA on the Capitol Tower rooftop.
This is amazing.
And what a [C] great place to be singing praise songs and recording these.
[Eb] It's just amazing.
And [N] talk about this song a little bit.
I feel like this is
I don't want to compare anything to 10,000 Reasons,
but this song really kind of folds out like that.
It's really a story and just kind of our faith
and what it's going to be like one day when we get to heaven.
But talk about this and just the inspiration behind the song.
I love that you pick up on the fact that it's a story
because we definitely wanted to have that sense in the song.
I wrote this with Jonas Myhrin,
and it was just this idea that we're part of this grand song.
[Gm] I love that every time we get up to lead worship
or we get up to sing together, we're not trying to [N] get something going.
We're actually joining in something that's already happening.
There's this endless anthem, this never-ending flow of praise
and this epic song, and we're just adding our voices to it.
So hopefully the song conveys a little bit of that.
I want to bring my greatest hallelujah [Ab] to you.
And we walk through a few scenarios in the song,
but then [G] obviously we end up talking about heaven,
and one day we'll be [Abm] part of that heavenly song,
[N] that anthem right before his throne, and we'll see him face to face.
To me, truth like that never gets old.
It's a good thing to sing.
We got to record it here at Capitol Studios, which was a huge treat.
We got old Nat King Cole's old 9-foot Steinway piano.
We got Beatles' Hammond organ, and we got a gospel choir on it.
I mean, the whole thing was a treat.
It's in the background, and it just brings so much fullness.
And the voices, and it really kind of gives a hint of this [Ab] hallelujah one day
where every tongue and every [D] race are singing together.
It's amazing.
I love that.
Fantastic.
Matt, it's great to be with [Ab] you.
