In addition to the No. 1 album debut, Elevation Worship's hit song "Praise" continues to resonate with listeners as it entered the 20th week at No. 1 on Billboard's Hot Songs Christian Chart. This is only the ninth song in the genre to reach this milestone in the chart's history. The song was also nominated for two GMA Dove Awards last week as "Song of the Year" and "Worship Recorded Song of the Year."
