We Are
by Kari Jobe
Theology & Meaning
A worship song that frames the church's identity and calling, inviting believers to live united and on mission for Jesus. The song forms identity and ecclesial unity, aligning with biblical themes of the body of Christ and the church's mission to reflect Jesus in the world.
Worship Leadership Tips
Works well for vision Sundays, baptisms, or commissioning moments. Keep it steady and clear. If the bridge feels long, shorten it and land strongly on the chorus.
Arrangement Tips
Keep a steady groove and prioritize a clear vocal lead so the congregation locks in quickly. Build in layers across sections (pads, guitars, harmonies) instead of jumping to full volume early. For transitions, use a short instrumental turnaround or a soft downshift into the bridge to maintain focus.
