"He Is" is a song recorded by American singer Brandy for her third studio album Full Moon (2002). It was written by Warryn Campbell, Harold Lilly and Brandy, with production handled by Campbell and the latter. Conceived during spiritual discussions with the singer, Campbell and Lilly conceptualized the pop and R&B-influenced ballad secretly as a gospel song, as they were keen to hear her sing a religious track, a genre which Brandy declined to record at the time. Lyrically speaking about God in third person, she was unaware "He Is" was not a relationship-themed song when she recorded it.

"He Is" was released by Atlantic Records as the third and final single from Full Moon in the United States on July 29, 2002. It received mostly positive reviews from music critics, many of whom applauded Norwood's vocal performance and the sparse production, but dismissed the song as a weak single choice. Likewise, the track failed to reprise the success of the album's previous singles "What About Us?" and "Full Moon"; while it failed to chart on the US Billboard Hot 100, it reached number 78 on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs.
