Joel Houston explains why Hillsong’s United latest album “ALL OF THE ABOVE” is a Studio Recorded album instead of the usual Live Worship album.

There can be no doubt that Hillsong United is having an impact across the globe. Their CDs have become standards for many worship leaders and have set trends toward high-energy live worship projects.

So when people heard that United’s new release, All of the Above, was a studio project, it raised some questions.

Primarily why fix it if it ain’t broke? Now there is absolutely nothing wrong with a studio worship project, but still, people want to know why the change.

So when we had the chance to sit and chat with the Hillsong United team, we asked them the reasoning behind the decision. We were going to write up an article based on their answer, but since we recorded Joel Houston (front man and creative director for Hillsong United) we decided to let you hear it in his own words.

Lead Me to the Cross from United’s All of The Above

Lyrics

Verse1
Savior I come
Quiet my soul remember
Redemptions hill
Where Your blood was spilled
For my ransom

Pre-Chorus
Everything I once held dear
I count it all as lost

Chorus
Lead me to the cross
Where Your love poured out
Bring me to my knees
Lord I lay me down
Rid me of myself
I belong to You
Lead me, lead me to the cross

Verse2
You were as I
Tempted and trialed
Human
The word became flesh
Bore my sin and death
Now you’re risen

Bridge
To your heart
To your heart
Lead me to your heart
Lead me to your heart

Lyrics for Hosanna

Verse 1
I see the King of glory
Coming down the clouds with fire
The whole earth shakes, the whole earth shakes

Washing over all our sin
The people sing, the people sing

Chorus
Hosanna, Hosanna
Hosanna in the Highest

I see a generation
Rising up to take the place
With selfless faith, with selfless faith
I see a new revival
Staring as we pray and seek
We’re on our knees, we’re on our knees

Heal my heart and make it clean
Open up my eyes to the things unseen
Show me how to love like you have loved me
Break my heart for what is yours
Everything I am for your kingdom’s cause
As I walk from earth into eternity

Song : Solution
From the CD Album United – All of the Above

Lyrics below .. sing along!!

Verse 1
It is not a human right to stare, not fight while broken nations dream,
Open up our eyes so blind that we might find the mercy for the need.

Pre-Chorus
Hey now fill our hearts with your compassion,
Hey now as we hold to our confession.

Verse 2
It is not too far a cry too much to try and help the least of these,
Politics will not decide if we should rise and be your hands and feet.

Chorus
Whoa! God be the solution.
Whoa! We will be your hands and be your feet.

Verse 3
Higher than all circumstance your promise stands,
Your love for all to see.
Higher than our protest lines and dollar signs
Your love is all we need.

Bridge
Only you can mend the broken heart
And cause the blind to see,
Erase complete the sinner’s past and set the captives free.
Only you can take the widow’s cry,
And cause her heart to sing.
Be the father to the fatherless, our savior and our king.
We will be your hands, we will be your feet,
We will run this race for the least of these;
In the darkest place we will be your light we will be your light.

Ending
And we will be your hands we will be your feet.
We will run, we will run,
We will run with the solution.
