I've been reading all the comments that criticizes this whole idea of the music and the music video. Sure, I totally get where all you Christian folks that are more traditional are coming from... It's not easy to get used to this kind of music in terms of worship. I came from a traditional Christian background - no drums, and no electric guitar. Just choir and piano. The thing is... You can't put Christianity in a box (more so, Jesus). There is a verse in the bible that says, "generation after generation will be in awe of Your works." I forgot where that is from, but to me it basically means that PEOPLE are gonna be constantly changing, but GOD does not. He is the same forever and always. Guys, we cant be critical at everything. Who are we to say that this is not of God. There are definitely more ways to connect with people who are lost instead of just handing out tracts, right? God Bless, to anyone who got my point and are still reading this.
You are so dead on...the scriptures say sing a new song to the Lord, not because he gets bored, but because we get bored and just start going through the motions and not really press into the Lord and worship him with full out abandon!
this is so well said. I go to Hillsong in Brisbane and I constantly have people criticizing how our music and the production that goes on in our night services. What an awesome response :)
Dude ... Forget all those religious folks trying to make people feel bad for jamming out to this. Hillsong is great and they do nothing but give God Glory, no matter how the music sounds. I am so thankful for them and their gift to keep bringing awesome new songs to worship too.
I grew up Catholic and went to catholic school and this kind of music not sung in a catholic church. That music puts me to slumber. When I first went to the church I go to now it was amazing and anyone who says this isn't music God would approve of well there is way more music out there that is totally garbage.
Super surprised to see Christians bashing a music group who is so passionate about God. This is the young and free album which is geared toward the YOUTH. If you watch their "Young and Free; Our Story" video you can see the story behind this album. I find it so refreshing that this music is so different from the other millions of basic Christian songs that are out there. God did not call us to all sound the same. It's about using our unique gifts (no matter how different it sounds) to glorify our amazing God. I'm baffled at how critical we Christians can be. Instead of acting in love, we're just tearing them down. But overall I love this song and the whole album! If this is not your style, go find an old Christian hymn. Remember this is 2013, and I like that hillsong is actually attempting to reach the youth of this day and age. I'm 19 so its so refreshing finding this type of music. it's so amazing that no matter how different our styles are, in the end it all points to Jesus. He made us all different for a reason.
Here in my heart You have found Your place Replacing fear with Your freedom You lift me up You lift me up When all seems lost in my brokenness I call Your Name and You answer Held by Your love Held by Your love In the night Through the struggle, through the trial You have made my burden light You have brought me back to life again Your love it wipes every tear away You calm the storms that surround me You carry me You carry me Your light breaks through in my darkest hour Your love is strong in my weakness You are enough You are enough You won't let go So I will follow All I am Yours now and forever You won't let go So I will follow With all I am In the night Through the struggle, through the trial You have made my burden light You have brought me back to life again You won't let go So I will follow All I am Yours now and forever You won't let go So I will follow With all I am [x2] In the night Through the struggle, through the trial You have made my burden light You have brought me back to life again
You guys are AMAZING, I'm in Afghanistan serving with the military and I can feel the ENERGY through the videos and music like I'm at the concert. Thank you for being MIGHTY disciples of Christ :)
Mientras lean la palabra de Dios todos los dias y mantengan todos los días tu comunión con Dios en Oración Todo Perfecto y te digo todos los Días. porque un cristiano tiene que andar todos los Días con las vestiduras(armadura) del espíritu Santo. Siendo usados todos los dias por nuestro señor se haga el propósito en nuestras vidas como Daniel. Un abrazo.
God is CONSTANTLY in the business of RENEWING so it makes sense to reach the next generation so that they in turn can reach the next. This is beautiful
Hello everyone commenting on how this video is wrong; its called Hillsong young and free! They are free in Christ and in this video it begins with a beautiful ocean and scripture. The youth are jumping and singing to Christ...they are enjoying life in a a healthy way. It nice because it shows that youth can rejoice in the Lord and in life and do fun things like surf and skate and what not-unlike the usual sex, drugs, and alcohol scene. Why are we so religious. God sees the heart in young people and is delighted when we learn to delight in Him in various ways. When I ride my bike I reflect on God's creation and on so many other things..
Anthony Galang I totally agree with you. My pastor just preached on this subject. Christianity should never be boring and he is the God of creativity. Worship can never be on sided. It has to change, so that it may reach people of all ages. This way God's work can be done. Well said my friend.
Im getting back to you Jesus, its diffiult to stay in faith when im a teenager so many things are going through my mind. Thank you Jesus, im now falling into your arms, I trust you.
We want to praise Yahshua, I did not hear his name not once..... You, him..... Could be anyone....... In the name Yahshua/Yeshua.... I want to hear his name!!!!!!!
I had a man ask me, "How can I worship to this kind of music and possible call it "godly?" Nowhere in scripture does it say that worship music can't sound like secular music. It's so exciting to see my generation step us and start answering to the call that God has on all of our lives.
This song has been such a blessing to me over the past few days. It has truly lifted my spirits and reminded me that there is life in Jesus, no matter what trials life brings. I'm in the over 30 crowd, but I praise GOD that Hillsong is writing a performing a style of worship that connects the younger generation and draws them into worship with Christ. To say that this song cannot be worship because it doesn't say the word Jesus, is completely ludicrous. There are hundreds of old Hymns that don't actually say the word Jesus. Worship is about the heart of the worshiper, Spirit and Truth, and a focus on bringing glory to God. Some of my most intimate worship experiences have not even involved music. Furthermore, to say that this song wouldn't be meaningful to persecuted Christians carries no weight. Persecuted Christians are some of the most joyful people I've ever heard of. They understand the beauty of the Gospel...the fact that life is found in Christ alone...and they understand the hope found in Roman's 8:28, that God will work all things for their good. Paul commanded us to REJOICE, in our sufferings...period! It's hard to do, but crucial to understanding the beauty of the Gospel. Praise the Lord for Hillsong, and the beautiful music they have written. I pray that it continues to be a sweat sound to our Lord.
Nothing is wrong with this music as long as you're doing it for God's sake to Glorify His name,,,like David he is willing to abase himself in the Lord's presence..(2 Samuel 6:21_22)our young people are free to celebrate God's goodness...
I myself am Agnostic, recently "upgraded" from Atheist thanks to a very special friend who helped me find both faith in humanity and elsewhere. She introduced me to this group and I can't even begin to thank her for introducing me to you and for the songs you play. Just so uplifting! Thank you for what you do!
God said judge not! So I judge not. Thank you! God for all music that is in your name and it brings another person closer to you. Amen!Cant wait until I see you. Life is too short, to judge modern music. People let us save souls, in Christ Jesus's name. We can not do in front of the computer. An by the way I love this song.😝
I love how Christ God reveals himself through this song and video. God loves to expand our horizons. As children of the One True King, we shouldn't limit The Lord's capabilities, nor should we limit the way we invision Him! He is everlasting and beyond comprehension, He is revealed through each of us so differently--that's what makes Him so exquisite.
Talents are a gift from God. In whatever way you can offer to praise Him, you do just that! We all have different views and if you're really a Christian with our Saviour's qualities we do not judge. We unite together! So sing on! Because the words are beautiful.
This is the perfect way for my generation to get into worship music. I love music that I can dance to and if I'm getting my worship on too what could be better? I love the fact that Christian artists are appealing to us teens to! Love it!!!!
Did all of the people complaining about the video or worldliness of the song not pay attention to the intro in the video? This is all to the glory of Christ. Let's stop beating up one another and be unified. We have enough outside forces coming against the church in today's society. Love this song and the spirit of it!
It doesn't matter what kind of genre the songs is and how they perform the songs. The only important things that we have to know is how the songs affect into our life and what do we feel while listen it, is it a peaceful song and make us close to God.
Generation of Music will lead to Jesus.. The center and the of all is Him Alone.. No one Else.. Dance like David Dance👏👏👏👏👏anything Praise that Good for Him.. Enjoy his Freedom of Love..
Jesus brings me back to life everyday, despite of my mistakes and weakness... I am a sinner who still didnt leave that old creature behind, but I trust in Gods mercy. I used to be vain, wordly and I struggle with it. I just want to be purely happy with Jesus and for Jesus in community with other brothers and sisters. We are all still saints in the making!
Praise the Lord. When you're giving God the glory, nothing else matters. HE has brought us back to life. Of course, if you sing this song to a girl (I don't know why anyone would...) then the glory isn't to Him. To be honest, as much as people may disagree with Hillsong and the way they reach out to youth, I would much rather have my 12 year old nieces jamming and singing the lyrics to this song while riding in the car instead of singing "Talk to dirty to me." I've played these songs while driving with my windows down and it catches people's attention. The point is, there is no bad influence coming from this music, on the contrary, it's a blessing!
Estas letras son un testimonio de vida! Nunca olvido esta canción y cada vez que la oigo lloro de alegría y gratitud al que transformó mi vida Jesucristo! Soy tuya por siempre y te seguiré a donde me guíes! ❤️ Gracias por esta canción!!!
Every time i listen to this song i really come alive,, its lyrics are so alive and reminds me that there is a God who came to give us freedom, Jesus so loved us... I love ya'll hilsong young and free you all are amazing,,, your all songs have impacted me deeply,,,, Love from india
.. I still can't help but smile and Dance, every time i hear this song!!.. This is the second reason why I LOVE BEING A Christian!! .. OUR Music is Amazing!!. HHHAAA.
A FRIENLDY REMINDER FOR ALL WHO PROFESS FAITH IN CHRIST: may KING LORD JESUS ALONE BE GLORIFIED in EVERYTHING that we do for we may end up unconsciously worshiping the music, the beauty of the stage and the greatness of the singer's voice instead! IT'S ALL ABOUT JESUS!
I'm 40 Married with 4 kids, I was Raised in an ULTRA conservative church. I've been dancing to this song for the past 6 months. There is freedom to worship in JESUS, if his freedom don't make you getup and dance.. Then you still have some growing to do :) God Bless you all ! P.s .. Triangles are not owned by the Illuminati...
I feel sad while reading some of the comments here, about this song not sounding like a true worship song and how it loses its meaning because of its video :/ I was at their concert yesterday and i've fully felt God's presence in that place while singing their songs. Is it really based on the rhythm or the way we sing it? I don't think so. I think it's based on our heart's desire to worship him and our sincerity. We can still have fun while worshiping God. I've heard many unbeliever youths that has been moved, touched and accepted God by these songs :)
This is nice, in a way, a lot of young people could relate to this. But I think we should also be careful, as Christians, to not let the world define everything for us most especially the way we worship our God. We should encourage young people to express themselves, but not forget how should we revere and glorify the Great God :D
I am Brazilian and I love Brazil and USA No matter what the place that created musicamais if Jesus Christ all generations can canda praise God loves you and I also that you be with God and I want to wait our sky people
When i watch Hillsong Young and Free videos, especially this song, "Back To Life", it makes me wonder and ponder on "replacing fear with His Freedom". Seeing these youths dance and sing passionately free for Jesus that their enthusiastic overflowing wireless message speaks, well more than just 'speaks' but sings to me that we are capable of attaining His Freedom not because of what we have done but of what He did.
Absolutely adorable! This young lady is lit up with joy with her love for our Savior! Very inspiring, she shows you that you can also have this joy in your life through Jesus.Perhaps that is what all the haters are afraid of.... Losing that awful impending doom feeling in their heart that they hold on to so tightly. We should all pray for them! 💗 me some Jesus
Guys, like for real. It's just a shape that could symbolize so many things... Let's not be the Christians who try and cause problems and instead enjoy the presence and freedom in Christ!
You have brought me back to life again!!! GOD YOU CARRY ME!! Your light breaks to through the darkness night..!! YOU wont let go so I WILL FOLLOW WITH ALL THAT I AM!!
Done. Thank you Father... according to the book of Ephesians in the Holy Bible, chapter 1:17-23, I pray that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of Glory may give to you the spirit of wisdom and Revelation in the knowledge of Him, 18. The eyes of your understanding being enlightened; that you may know what is the hope of His calling, what are the riches of the glory of His inheritance in the saints, 19. And what is the exceeding greatness of His power toward us who believe, according to the working of His mighty power 20. Which He worked in Christ when He raised Him from the dead and seated Him at His right hand in the Heavenly places, 21. Far above all principality and power and might and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this age but also in that which is to come. 22. And He put all things under His feet, and gave Him to be head over all things to the church, 23. Which is His body, the fullness of Him who fills all in all. Ephesians 2:1. And you He made alive who were dead in trespasses and sins 2. In which you once walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit who now works in the sons of disobedience, 3. Among whom also we all once conducted ourselves in the lust of our flesh, fulfilling the desires of the flesh and of the mind, and we're by nature children of wrath, just as the others, 4. But God who is rich in mercy, because of His great love with which He loved us, 5. Even when we were dead in trespasses, made us alive together with Christ (by grace you have been saved), 6. And raised us up together and made us sit together in the Heavenly places in Christ Jesus, 7. That in the ages to come He might show the exceeding riches of His grace in His kindness toward us in Christ Jesus 8. For by Grace you have been saved through faith and that not of yourselves it is the gift of God,...10. For you are His workmanship created in Christ Jesus for good works which God prepared beforehand that you should walk in them. God bless you.
SAW Watkins thank you watkins and please seriously pray nonstop me because it is more than a 911 emergency. Please get Jesus Christ full attention as much as you possibly can nonstop to help me.
What is going on in your life? God can resolve anything that you think is impossible. I used to be an atheist. I traveled all over the US (mountains, cities, etc) and couldn't see God at all. It wasn't until I returned home 7 years later that I started having visions of Jesus. Know that you are loved.
Keith Ashford wow, I'm glad you're saved & know Jesus. Please know I love Jesus beyond words can express. It's a long story about what I've been going through. But I continue to lean my head on Jesus shoulders.
What an amazing worship song! This is the type of music you can listen to on headphones near a beach or lake during the summer time and feel amazing and connected with God!
Not all genre's can be agreed with much like Christian music, within this topic there can be different styles and I think that as long as you get pumped and excited with praising God then go for it! Keep on making great music Hillsong!
To answer everyones questions, yes the video might seem worldly to you. And thats ok. Everyone is entitled you their own opinion. However think of it this way... How can you pull somebody up if you are too busy sitting on your own little pedestal. How do you expect unsaved people to relate to you and feel welcome? You have to hit them on their level, and be strong enough to bring them up with you. As far as the video content, the songs name is Back to Life, about God breathing new energetic, loving, passionate love back into your soul. The video is about living free and giving God All the glory in everything you do in the process. Just something to think about.
I love this type of music - As Christians, we have to learn to seperate the musical style from the message of the words. Each person connects to a certain style of music. I am into post-modern and electronic pop. The message of United and Young & Free spread the message of Jesus to a new generation of creatures of GOD.
I love the music video!!! Forget the negative "I'm holier than you because i listen to slow worship songs" comments and have a good time worshiping the Lord with this style of music everyone :)
imSprungchickenbones Many Get save from their of music, If not Christians like them, who Will Stretch Arms to Reach out to people who likes partying, In the Old testament,The Lord Placed a snake in a Brass Pole to Save Israel from the Plague of snakes, Its the same Principle here, The Problem is the Solution. If the Sinners Like Partying We Should party For the Lord Too,The Lord Created All Things even Art of Dancing and Singing.
+imSprungchickenbones With that reasoning it is safe to say that Apostle Paul was out of line using a famous line from a poem used to worship the Greek God Zeus and used it to worship the very same God these people are worshiping i.e the line is " In him we live and have our being..." found in the book of Ephesians.
+imSprungchickenbones Oh geez. I rolled my eyes and laughed so hard at your reply. As if it makes any difference what kind of music Christians like. Those old-fashioned songs are SO BORING! King David in the Old Testament danced, used instruments, and sung praises to God. I'd imagine if he were alive today he would be all over Christian rave/dance music.
to all of those skeptical and what not, I like this type of music because it does not involve jesus, I am religious and love god, all for god, but from my agnostic point of view, hillsong rocks! keep up the good music!
Here in my heart You have found Your place Replacing fear with Your freedom You lift me up You lift me up When all seems lost in my brokenness I call Your Name and You answer Held by Your love Held by Your love In the night Through the struggle through the trial You have made my burden light You have brought me back to life again Your love it wipes every tear away You calm the storms that surround me You carry me You carry me Your light breaks through in my darkest hour Your love is strong in my weakness You are enough You are enough You won't let go So I will follow All I am Yours now and forever You won't let go So I will follow With all I am
Si se fijan bien, hay dos triángulos juntos, que forman el "monte de Sion", y los triángulos que se ven de fondo están invertidos y forman la "estrella de David", con un significado espiritual muy bueno!
PARECIERA QUE NO POR EL ESTILO Y LA JUVENTUD QUE REPRESENTA, PERO TODO LO QUE HACE HIILSONG SIEMPRE ES MUY ESPIRITUAL, LA MAYORIA DE SUS LETRAS PARECEN SACADAS DE HIMNARIOS.
Please wake up! If you think you can change the standard of the Lord, you are in error. We must be a sample to other, not this! Don't compromise the standard of the Lord, remember your are spiritual Levites!!! Do you think this is Holy in the standard and in the eye of the Lord? Ask to yourself... Be Holy because I am Holy says the Lord WAKE UP!!!!!!!
Can we get these people from the old testament out of the comments? Music is art and all art forms are given as a gift from God. If this is what works for you then let it be. I MYSELF was saved with this music, and I have FULLY devoted my life to Christ. Now I plan to go to Baptist Bible College to further advance in my faith.
Kurtis Cooper Amen MAN!!!!! I was filled with the Spirit of God at a Jesus Culture concert (similar to Hillsong young and free) it was there that I felt called to be a missionary, I leave next month at 16 to traverse the globe and show others the great depth of JESUS'S love!!! Keep up the good work my friend!!! And may God bless you and keep you on your journeys! Remember the Father's love is extravagant! And HE...carries..you!..When you cant... :)
We can still learn from the Old Testament, In fact Jesus said himself he came to not banish the old laws but fulfill them. Yes we are free from the old covenant but that doesn't mean that there isn't wisdom or isn't any truth we can learn in the Old Testament as well in the New Testament. Have a good day.
"...Our Father in heaven, Hallowed be Your name. Your Kingdom come. Your will be done on EARTH as it is in HEAVEN." The kingdom of God isn't just somber reverant worship but with praise and GREAT JOY we come to the King of kings!!!

Here in my heart You have found Your place
Replacing fear with Your freedom
You lift me up
You lift me up
When all seems lost in my brokenness
I call Your Name and You answer
Held by Your love
Held by Your love
In the night
Through the struggle, through the trial
You have made my burden light
You have brought me back to life again
Your love it wipes every tear away
You calm the storms that surround me
You carry me
You carry me
Your light breaks through in my darkest hour
Your love is strong in my weakness
You are enough
You are enough
You won't let go
So I will follow
All I am
Yours now and forever
You won't let go
So I will follow
With all I am
In the night
Through the struggle, through the trial
You have made my burden light
You have brought me back to life again
You won't let go
So I will follow
All I am
Yours now and forever
You won't let go
So I will follow
With all I am
[x2]
In the night
Through the struggle, through the trial
You have made my burden light
You have brought me back to life again
Victor Firmansyah Thank you, I sing it out loud😊❤

Thanks for the lyrics.
You guys are AMAZING, I'm in Afghanistan serving with the military and I can feel the ENERGY through the videos and music like I'm at the concert. Thank you for being MIGHTY disciples of Christ :)
Ótima aposta da galera do Hillsong em musicas para dançar... Ser cristão não é ser quadrado, fanático... somos jovens..... somos livres em Cristo!!!
TO APLAUDINDO ESSE COMENT IRMÃO

"You have brought me back to life...again". No puedo evitar las lágrimas cada vez que suenan estas líneas. Gracias, Jesús.
Me encanta esta canción.. El nunca me dejará y nunca me fallara.. Gloria a Dios 😇
Did all of the people complaining about the video or worldliness of the song not pay attention to the intro in the video? This is all to the glory of Christ. Let's stop beating up one another and be unified. We have enough outside forces coming against the church in today's society. Love this song and the spirit of it!
I Still playing this song during Quarantine this 2020❤ I really love this song❣😇
It doesn't matter what kind of genre the songs is and how they perform the songs. The only important things that we have to know is how the songs affect into our life and what do we feel while listen it, is it a peaceful song and make us close to God.
We've released Back to Life! Check it out!
Calidad!
Hermosa cancion
Está genial!

nice..but can we have better mtv..
Generation of Music will lead to Jesus.. The center and the of all is Him Alone.. No one Else.. Dance like David Dance👏👏👏👏👏anything Praise that Good for Him.. Enjoy his Freedom of Love..
I loved this song from the first time I heard this, I love you Y&F, you are the best Christian singing group in the entire world.
Who's still listening to this amazing glorious song 🎵 in September 2022 anyone?
I feel absolutely incomplete without hearing this song atleast once before I wind off my day!!
It's a wow!!
Love you Christ!! ❤
Thank you Jesus for bring me back to life in a really dark time of my life.
Jesus brings me back to life everyday, despite of my mistakes and weakness... I am a sinner who still didnt leave that old creature behind, but I trust in Gods mercy. I used to be vain, wordly and I struggle with it. I just want to be purely happy with Jesus and for Jesus in community with other brothers and sisters. We are all still saints in the making!
Praise the Lord. When you're giving God the glory, nothing else matters. HE has brought us back to life. Of course, if you sing this song to a girl (I don't know why anyone would...) then the glory isn't to Him. To be honest, as much as people may disagree with Hillsong and the way they reach out to youth, I would much rather have my 12 year old nieces jamming and singing the lyrics to this song while riding in the car instead of singing "Talk to dirty to me." I've played these songs while driving with my windows down and it catches people's attention. The point is, there is no bad influence coming from this music, on the contrary, it's a blessing!
Estas letras son un testimonio de vida! Nunca olvido esta canción y cada vez que la oigo lloro de alegría y gratitud al que transformó mi vida Jesucristo! Soy tuya por siempre y te seguiré a donde me guíes! ❤️
Gracias por esta canción!!!
Every time i listen to this song i really come alive,, its lyrics are so alive and reminds me that there is a God who came to give us freedom, Jesus so loved us... I love ya'll hilsong young and free you all are amazing,,, your all songs have impacted me deeply,,,, Love from india
They never had to change their style. They were so cool at the beginning.
Honestly.. This first album was SO ahead of its time..
.. I still can't help but smile and Dance, every time i hear this song!!.. This is the second reason why I LOVE BEING A Christian!! .. OUR Music is Amazing!!. HHHAAA.
Something so beautiful about the connection with our father. It's unexplainable but so beautiful!! JESUS TOLD US THAT TO HIM, WE ARE TO DIE FOR!
This song has a deeper meaning than the lyrics.. The message is beautiful ☑️
worshiping the Lord is the best thing we can give with an open heart
A FRIENLDY REMINDER FOR ALL WHO PROFESS FAITH IN CHRIST:
may KING LORD JESUS ALONE BE GLORIFIED in EVERYTHING that we do for we may end up unconsciously worshiping the music, the beauty of the stage and the greatness of the singer's voice instead!
IT'S ALL ABOUT JESUS!
I'm 40 Married with 4 kids, I was Raised in an ULTRA conservative church.
I've been dancing to this song for the past 6 months.
There is freedom to worship in JESUS, if his freedom don't make you getup and dance.. Then you still have some growing to do :)
God Bless you all !
P.s .. Triangles are not owned by the Illuminati...
At church our pastor played this song through the speakers while we were eating and I found it quite cool.
This music video completely filled me with happiness and faith! Thanks young and free!
I feel sad while reading some of the comments here, about this song not sounding like a true worship song and how it loses its meaning because of its video :/ I was at their concert yesterday and i've fully felt God's presence in that place while singing their songs. Is it really based on the rhythm or the way we sing it? I don't think so. I think it's based on our heart's desire to worship him and our sincerity. We can still have fun while worshiping God. I've heard many unbeliever youths that has been moved, touched and accepted God by these songs :)
This is nice, in a way, a lot of young people could relate to this. But I think we should also be careful, as Christians, to not let the world define everything for us most especially the way we worship our God. We should encourage young people to express themselves, but not forget how should we revere and glorify the Great God :D
I am Brazilian and I love Brazil and USA No matter what the place that created musicamais if Jesus Christ all generations can canda praise God loves you and I also that you be with God and I want to wait our sky people
When i watch Hillsong Young and Free videos, especially this song, "Back To Life", it makes me wonder and ponder on "replacing fear with His Freedom". Seeing these youths dance and sing passionately free for Jesus that their enthusiastic overflowing wireless message speaks, well more than just 'speaks' but sings to me that we are capable of attaining His Freedom not because of what we have done but of what He did.
Fellows, it is a wonderful thing to celebrate the Kingdom of God!
Absolutely adorable! This young lady is lit up with joy with her love for our Savior! Very inspiring, she shows you that you can also have this joy in your life through Jesus.Perhaps that is what all the haters are afraid of.... Losing that awful impending doom feeling in their heart that they hold on to so tightly. We should all pray for them! 💗 me some Jesus
Love me some Jesus it was supposed to say
I love this song! Makes me want to praise God forever!
Guys, like for real. It's just a shape that could symbolize so many things... Let's not be the Christians who try and cause problems and instead enjoy the presence and freedom in Christ!
You have brought me back to life again!!! GOD YOU CARRY ME!! Your light breaks to through the darkness night..!! YOU wont let go so I WILL FOLLOW WITH ALL THAT I AM!!
Glory a Dios todo poderoso que reina en los cielos y la tierra amén 🇲🇽 ✝️ ⚡
I pray someone out there will read my comment and pray for me spiritually.
Done. Thank you Father...
according to the book of Ephesians in the Holy Bible, chapter 1:17-23, I pray that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of Glory may give to you the spirit of wisdom and Revelation in the knowledge of Him, 18. The eyes of your understanding being enlightened; that you may know what is the hope of His calling, what are the riches of the glory of His inheritance in the saints, 19. And what is the exceeding greatness of His power toward us who believe, according to the working of His mighty power
20. Which He worked in Christ when He raised Him from the dead and seated Him at His right hand in the Heavenly places,
21. Far above all principality and power and might and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this age but also in that which is to come. 22. And He put all things under His feet, and gave Him to be head over all things to the church, 23. Which is His body, the fullness of Him who fills all in all.
Ephesians 2:1. And you He made alive who were dead in trespasses and sins 2. In which you once walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit who now works in the sons of disobedience, 3. Among whom also we all once conducted ourselves in the lust of our flesh, fulfilling the desires of the flesh and of the mind, and we're by nature children of wrath, just as the others, 4. But God who is rich in mercy, because of His great love with which He loved us, 5. Even when we were dead in trespasses, made us alive together with Christ (by grace you have been saved), 6. And raised us up together and made us sit together in the Heavenly places in Christ Jesus, 7. That in the ages to come He might show the exceeding riches of His grace in His kindness toward us in Christ Jesus
8. For by Grace you have been saved through faith and that not of yourselves it is the gift of God,...10. For you are His workmanship created in Christ Jesus for good works which God prepared beforehand that you should walk in them.
God bless you.
SAW Watkins thank you watkins and please seriously pray nonstop me because it is more than a 911 emergency. Please get Jesus Christ full attention as much as you possibly can nonstop to help me.
What is going on in your life? God can resolve anything that you think is impossible. I used to be an atheist. I traveled all over the US (mountains, cities, etc) and couldn't see God at all. It wasn't until I returned home 7 years later that I started having visions of Jesus. Know that you are loved.
Keith Ashford wow, I'm glad you're saved & know Jesus. Please know I love Jesus beyond words can express. It's a long story about what I've been going through. But I continue to lean my head on Jesus shoulders.
I love Jesus😍❤💕
its too nice to make others just cause of Summer.💕💗💝💞💟💜💛💚💖
What an amazing worship song! This is the type of music you can listen to on headphones near a beach or lake during the summer time and feel amazing and connected with God!
I love it completely, let's worship in full joy, with shouts and tambourines 🤍 Oh psalms our souls are filled with you 🥰
Who else is still jamming out to this in 2019 😳 Hallelujah God is good 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻
✋
Try 2020! 🙏🏻❤️🤗💪🏻
God not Dead 💓
Hillsong Young & Free through Jesus Christ. I love this video! I skateboard so its cool cause it really represents young christians :)
Not all genre's can be agreed with much like Christian music,
within this topic there can be different styles and I think that as long as you get pumped and excited with praising God then go for it!
Keep on making great music Hillsong!
Back to life *---* God is Love
The lyrics,the voice,the music is superb! There is nothing like getting into the presence of God!
*who's still listening this beautiful song in 2023♥?*
To answer everyones questions, yes the video might seem worldly to you. And thats ok. Everyone is entitled you their own opinion. However think of it this way... How can you pull somebody up if you are too busy sitting on your own little pedestal. How do you expect unsaved people to relate to you and feel welcome? You have to hit them on their level, and be strong enough to bring them up with you. As far as the video content, the songs name is Back to Life, about God breathing new energetic, loving, passionate love back into your soul. The video is about living free and giving God All the glory in everything you do in the process. Just something to think about.
I love this type of music - As Christians, we have to learn to seperate the musical style from the message of the words. Each person connects to a certain style of music. I am into post-modern and electronic pop. The message of United and Young & Free spread the message of Jesus to a new generation of creatures of GOD.
Amen - and what anew life it is - even in the trials - the burden is light. Love you Jesus!!
I love Melodie! Her voice is so unique and beautiful! And she's just adorable!
LOVE IT!!!
2018 anyone?
I am back to Life!!!
Thank you Jesus!
I love the music video!!! Forget the negative "I'm holier than you because i listen to slow worship songs" comments and have a good time worshiping the Lord with this style of music everyone :)
imSprungchickenbones Many Get save from their of music, If not Christians like them, who Will Stretch Arms to Reach out to people who likes partying, In the Old testament,The Lord Placed a snake in a Brass Pole to Save Israel from the Plague of snakes, Its the same Principle here, The Problem is the Solution. If the Sinners Like Partying We Should party For the Lord Too,The Lord Created All Things even Art of Dancing and Singing.
+imSprungchickenbones With that reasoning it is safe to say that Apostle Paul was out of line using a famous line from a poem used to worship the Greek God Zeus and used it to worship the very same God these people are worshiping i.e the line is " In him we live and have our being..." found in the book of Ephesians.
+imSprungchickenbones Oh geez. I rolled my eyes and laughed so hard at your reply. As if it makes any difference what kind of music Christians like.
Those old-fashioned songs are SO BORING! King David in the Old Testament danced, used instruments, and sung praises to God. I'd imagine if he were alive today he would be all over Christian rave/dance music.
to all of those skeptical and what not, I like this type of music because it does not involve jesus, I am religious and love god, all for god, but from my agnostic point of view, hillsong rocks! keep up the good music!
Here in my heart You have found Your place Replacing fear with Your freedom You lift me up You lift me up When all seems lost in my brokenness I call Your Name and You answer Held by Your love Held by Your love In the night Through the struggle through the trial You have made my burden light You have brought me back to life again Your love it wipes every tear away You calm the storms that surround me You carry me You carry me Your light breaks through in my darkest hour Your love is strong in my weakness You are enough You are enough You won't let go So I will follow All I am Yours now and forever You won't let go So I will follow With all I am
This is the kind of song that has me dancing with my 5 and 8 year old sons.
Me encanta su música, me hacen enamorarme cada día mas de Jesucristo :"D
Si se fijan bien, hay dos triángulos juntos, que forman el "monte de Sion", y los triángulos que se ven de fondo están invertidos y forman la "estrella de David", con un significado espiritual muy bueno!
PARECIERA QUE NO POR EL ESTILO Y LA JUVENTUD QUE REPRESENTA, PERO TODO LO QUE HACE HIILSONG SIEMPRE ES MUY ESPIRITUAL, LA MAYORIA DE SUS LETRAS PARECEN SACADAS DE HIMNARIOS.
wah, i feel so old. we use to play this on our church when we were still kids. :( i miss church so much.
Go back! Especially if you have children
Jesus will not drop any of us. He holds us as babies in his arms of love. THATZ UNCIONDITIONAL, FREE LOVE YET THE BEST LOVE. BLESSED
En la noche
Mediante la lucha, mediante la prueba
Has hecho mi carga ligera
Me has traído de vuelta a la vida (8)
Please wake up! If you think you can change the standard of the Lord, you are in error. We must be a sample to other, not this! Don't compromise the standard of the Lord, remember your are spiritual Levites!!! Do you think this is Holy in the standard and in the eye of the Lord? Ask to yourself...
Be Holy because I am Holy says the Lord
WAKE UP!!!!!!!
In the night
Through the struggle through the trial
You have made my burden light
You have brought me back to life again.....
🥺💜
It's wonderful to see how there are some people like you guys that are shining the light and reflecting God's glory through dong ministry.
He brings me back to life whenever I call on His name. Thank you will never be able to cover it, Jesus!
esta cancion ha sido de mucha bendicion para mi! saludos desde Argentina
My love for this song
Can we get these people from the old testament out of the comments? Music is art and all art forms are given as a gift from God. If this is what works for you then let it be. I MYSELF was saved with this music, and I have FULLY devoted my life to Christ. Now I plan to go to Baptist Bible College to further advance in my faith.
Kurtis Cooper Amen MAN!!!!! I was filled with the Spirit of God at a Jesus Culture concert (similar to Hillsong young and free) it was there that I felt called to be a missionary, I leave next month at 16 to traverse the globe and show others the great depth of JESUS'S love!!! Keep up the good work my friend!!! And may God bless you and keep you on your journeys! Remember the Father's love is extravagant! And HE...carries..you!..When you cant... :)
does that mean we also kick out moses
We can still learn from the Old Testament, In fact Jesus said himself he came to not banish the old laws but fulfill them. Yes we are free from the old covenant but that doesn't mean that there isn't wisdom or isn't any truth we can learn in the Old Testament as well in the New Testament. Have a good day.
+Kross Exe 2 thumbs up! Peaceout

Don't forget that GOD always watching us. Godbless yeorubun💓
Your love wipes away all tears
You calm the storms that surround me
You are carrying me MY GOD ..
LOVE IT!!! Makes me think of what heaven will be like: a big PARTY!
Yeah...something like that! LOL!
lol so true
"...Our Father in heaven, Hallowed be Your name. Your Kingdom come. Your will be done on EARTH as it is in HEAVEN." The kingdom of God isn't just somber reverant worship but with praise and GREAT JOY we come to the King of kings!!!
amen!
Yesssssss! praise Jesus!!!
