Following the widespread impact of “Goodbye Yesterday (feat. Gracie Binion),” Elevation Rhythm returns with yet another joy bomb called “Washed.” While “Goodbye Yesterday” focused on the resurrection power available to us through a relationship with Jesus, “Washed” centers on Christ’s death and the power of His sacrifice, which ultimately offers us new life.

“This song has been pure joy for our youth,” shares Elevation Rhythm songwriter, producer and visionary Josh Holiday. “The message of being made clean through the cross collides with these bright, guitar-pop sonics that feel fun, free and full of life. It’s worshipful, but it also makes you want to move. Our hope is that people carry it like an anthem — something they don’t just sing, but believe and celebrate in their everyday lives.”
Holiday penned the energetic original with Mitch Wong, Joe L Barnes and Steven Furtick. Led by Nate Diaz, the vibrant single recognizes the freedom, grace and forgiveness the cross extends, celebrating the beauty of that fateful day on Calvary. The friendly singalong articulates how we are washed clean by the blood of Jesus. An immediate earworm, “Washed” showcases a legion of voices that join Diaz in loudly proclaiming:
I’ve been washed in the water
Washed in the blood
I’m as good as new
Oh hallelujah
I’ve been washed in the water
Washed in the blood
All because of You
Oh hallelujah
