Pugh said, “I am very elated about my latest single, “Your Glory” because it’s my return to my first love…releasing worship ballads. Many of the written reviews have touted it as Rain On Us 2.0.”
“Your Glory 2 C U” is Pugh’s 17th radio single. It is the lead single from his latest offering, We Wanna See You, released May 30. The record is currently impacting radio and is one of the most added radio singles on Media Base. This song comes on the heels of Pugh topping the Billboard Gospel Airplay Charts with his 5th No. 1 single, “Don’t Give Up” earlier this year, which appeared on his Worthy Is The LambEP.
Both songs were recorded last summer at Pugh’s highly acclaimed and sold-out Live Recording, in San Antonio, at Resurrection Baptist Church, Redland Campus. The music video for “Your Glory 2 C U” is now playing on BET Gospel.
