Elle King is getting ready to unveil one of the unreleased tracks on her upcoming album, Come Get Your Wife, and she took to Instagram to give fans a sneak peak — and an explanation of why she would release a song called “Try Jesus.”

“That’s a fair question,” King said in her caption. “I grew up with a very religious grandmother. Pentecostal, speaking in tongues. I know a thing or two about the Bible. At least enough to know that I do lots of stuff my sweet Mawmaw is up there cringing in Heaven, I can hear her now ‘No no no no no!’ All she ever wanted for me, for anybody, was to have a little faith.

“I always say, I’ll try anything twice! And even though as a little kid I got poison ivy up my a** at church camp, I stay true to my word,” she continued. “So cheers to round two! Try Jesus, coming soon
”

King announced earlier this week that she would debut her upcoming project on January 27, 2023. The album got its name because she was winning a game when, “this person shouts — not at me, but over me — to my partner, ‘come get your wife!’”
