CAIN & Brooke Ligertwood Find A Jubilant Common Voice On “Jesus Lifted Me”

CAIN & Brooke Ligertwood find a Jubilant common voice on “Jesus Lifted Me.” On Friday, August 29, 2025, sibling trio CAIN returned with “Jesus Lifted Me,” a buoyant duet featuring Brooke Ligertwood—a meeting of Nashville-bright harmonies and one of worship’s most trusted pens. The single arrived on streaming platforms with an official music video on CAIN’s YouTube channel, giving the release an instant congregational and pop‐worship lift.

A collaboration that makes easy sense

The pairing is more than star power. It’s a shared songwriting room. Official credits list Logan Cain, Taylor Cain Matz, Madison Cain Johnson, Brooke Ligertwood, and Jason Ingram—a lineup that explains the track’s seamless blend of hooky melody, vertical lyrics, and radio-ready structure. Ligertwood’s involvement underscores the song’s church-first intent while Ingram’s presence all but guarantees the chorus lands with muscle.

Musically, “Jesus Lifted Me” wears a grin: handclaps, bright acoustics, and a call-and-response feel that nods to the classic spiritual without being a cover. MultiTracks even tags the track as a country/duet, which fits the way CAIN and Ligertwood trade lines and stack harmonies across the refrain.

Why it resonates

Lyrically, the song is testimony distilled: “Glory hallelujah, Jesus lifted me.” In under four minutes, it sketches a before/after narrative—I’m not where I used to be—and then invites the listener to sing their own rescue story back to God. That economy is CAIN’s signature, while Ligertwood lends a steadying pastoral gravitas, keeping the joy tethered to the cross. The effect is that rare overlap of Sunday-set singability and weekday playlist replayability.

And because the writing leans declarative rather than descriptive, the chorus scales from earbuds to arenas. It’s easy to imagine this one moving from CAIN’s setlist to youth nights and multi-service weekends within weeks. (Worship leaders don’t have to wait: lyrics, chords, and vocal sheets are already live on CCLI SongSelect, and arrangement resources are up on MultiTracks.)

The roll-out, at a glance

CAIN teased the collaboration across socials leading into release day, then punctuated it with a clean, performance-forward video that keeps the focus on the melody and the message. For anyone just discovering the trio, “Jesus Lifted Me” follows a steady run that includes their 2023 LP Jesus Music and 2025 singles activity—context that helps explain why this drop feels effortless rather than opportunistic.
