"Amazing!" is a song recorded live by the American contemporary worship collective Elevation Rhythm and contemporary Christian musician Josiah Queen. The song was released as a promotional single on July 17, 2026, coinciding with the release of the collective's album, Washed, which the track appeared on. Later that year it appeared on Queen's album Damascus Road. "Amazing!" peaked at number 5 on the Billboard Hot Christian Songs chart.
Release
[edit]Both artists had been releasing teasers to social media hinting at the release of the song,[4] but it was not announced officially until the day of release when Queen announced the song on Facebook.[2] Upon the song's release to digital download and streaming formats, "Amazing!" was promoted with the release of a music video, which was uploaded to YouTube.[5] The song appeared on Elevation Rhythm's album Washed, which was released the same day,[6] and later on Queen's album Damascus Road.[7]
Composition
[edit]"Amazing!" is primarily a worship[2] and gospel[3] song. Running for a length of four minutes and 24 seconds, it is composed in the key of G♭, with a speed of 145 beats per minute and a time signature of 4
4.[8] The song begins with an acoustic guitar in the first verses of the song, before crescendoing into a louder chorus, in attempt to model the "faith-based energy and joy" in the track's lyrics;[4] the song's build has been reason for great acclaim among fans on social media.[2] The lyrics demonstrate the performer's "sense of relief and thankfulness".[4] "Amazing!" was recorded live at Elevation Church in Charlotte, North Carolina.[1] It was written by Josh Holiday, Queen, Steven Furtick, and Zac Lawson, while Holiday produced.[9]
Reception
[edit]Critical
[edit]Writing for Jubilee Cast, Timothy Yap labelled "Amazing!" as one of the best songs from Washed. In comparison with the rest of the album, he believed the song "provides a welcome stylistic lift", praising Queen's "recognizable vocal tone" and Elevation Rhythm's "polished production". Yap also felt that the song was far less "predictable" than the rest of the album.[10]
Commercial
[edit]"Amazing!" debuted at its peak position of number 5 on the Billboard Hot Christian Songs chart,[11] at the same time peaking at number 10 on the Christian Streaming Songs chart.[12]
