Phil Wickham Receives First Career GRAMMY Nominations
Renowned singer, songwriter and worship leader Phil Wickham received his first GRAMMY nominations yesterday when it was announced that his top-selling single “Hymn of Heaven” was nominated for Best Contemporary Christian Music Performance/Song. Additionally, Wickham is nominated in the same category as a co-writer for Chris Tomlin’s track “Holy Forever,” along with Tomlin, Jason Ingram, Brian Johnson and Jenn Johnson.
The nominations follow his recent collection of three Dove Awards for the Worship Song of the Year with his No. 1 single “Hymn of Heaven,” Worship Album of the Year (HYMN OF HEAVEN) and Songwriter of the Year (Artist).
“This is my first GRAMMY nomination ever, and I am floored and shaken,” shares Wickham. “God’s grace is just too much. Thanks to the Recording Academy for this nomination, and a HUGE shout out and thanks to the co-writers of this song Chris Davenport, Bill Johnson and Brian Johnson. Also a huge thanks to the producer of this song and my good friend Jonathan Smith. Lastly, thanks to everyone who has listened and worshiped along with us as we’ve sung about our great hope in Jesus.”
Wickham will cap the year on tour with select “BEHOLD CHRISTMAS NIGHTS,” alongside special guest Anne Wilson, with whom he just debuted the music video for his Christmas single “BEHOLD,” also featuring Wilson. The video can be seen here. Wickham is slated to reprise his popular “Singalong Tour” in 2023.
