It’s a humble request. In the song, ‘Lower Me Down,’ you’ll find grace as the Presence music band and Cliff Williams sing this incredible acoustic performance. 

Take a listen to this new hit from the Presence music band and Cliff Williams in their ‘Lower Me Down’ acoustic performance. It’s a humble request. ‘Lower Me Down,’ the lyrics echo with a depth that can only come from surrender. And what a sound it is–this call to the King without a crown steps into the dirt and reaches into the broken places we dare not show. 

The Presence music band, rooted in the quiet hum of Duluth, Minnesota, carries a story of humble beginnings. It wasn’t always about stages, the fans, and national tours. It was a group of local worship leaders coming together, seeking to bring worship to the young hearts at camps. And like that, a send in fertile soil, grew a high-energy pop worship band that would reach out behind, crossing new territories of the heart. 

And here they are today, sharing the stage with heavy hitters like Brandon Heath and Kim Walker-Smith. Their music has been heard across eight countries and countless cities besides the internet. And you can’t help but wonder–did they ever imagine the ripples of their humble offering would reach so far?

 ‘Lower Me Down’ is a song that will bring you to your knees and in the same breath, lifts you up. It’s about vulnerability–the moment the brokenness in us meets the Healer. The church isn’t a place to meet but a place for the broken. It’s a place for wounds to be treated, for hurts to be healed. And when we step into that space, surrendering ourselves, we hear a sound that calls to us to rise: “Rise up, get out of that bed. Rise up, get out of your head.” 

It’s the resurrection of our souls, the calling to leave behind our old selves and into the new life with Jesus that awaits. They are a reminder as we listen to their worship that to be lowered is to be loved. And to be lowered is the first step toward rising and testifying of God’s glorious works. ‘Lower Me Down’ is more than a song. It’s a promise. It’s the sound of healing and revival and of a community coming together to see the lost found. And it starts with one simple prayer: “Lower me down.” Because in that lowering, we are raised up to stand for His glory. 

Mark 2:4 "Since they could not get him to Jesus because of the crowd, they made an opening in the roof above Jesus by digging through it and then lowered the mat the man was lying on."
