Watch Hillsong UNITED Perform "Say the Word" Live
Australian megachurch worship team Hillsong UNITED has released a new live video to go with their latest single "Say the Word." The song is lifted from their newest chart-topping album, Empires.
"Say the Word" is one of the Australian worship team's most insightful theological songs. It traces the notion of God's Word across the sweep of Biblical history: from God's spoken word that made creation to Jesus being the Word of God to the reliability of God's promises today. Here is a snippet of the lyrics: "Written in a billion skies/Speaking to this heart of mine/All that I am with all creation/Hanging on every word that You've spoken/And it will not be shaken/Clinging for life to all Your promise/Hanging on every word that You say."
Hillsong UNITED has just had a very successful year last year. They finished 2015 as Billboard's top Christian artist, repeating from 2014. The ensemble also scores the year's Nos. 2 and 6 titles on the Hot Christian Songs tally, with "Oceans (Where Feet May Fail)" and "Touch the Sky," respectively. "Oceans" -- which has been on the weekly Hot Christian Songs chart since 2013 -- tallied a record 58 weeks at No. 1 (so far).
"Oceans" first landed at No. 1 on Dec. 7, 2013 and reigned for 45 straight weeks (through Oct. 11, 2014). It returned to No. 1 for five more weeks (April 18-May 16), and then another eight frames at the summit (Oct. 10-Nov. 28).
Not surprisingly, Hillsong United was the No. 1 Hot Christian Songs artist for 2015.
