Children Of The Light Lyrics


Hook: We are children of the light Royal rulers of the nation Saints, no prisoners of the night Trust and love will lead the way We are free
Verse 1: (Lecrae) Yeah, I notice when people notice me My exterior is the only way they know it's me I'm full of holes and scars, my skin's marked up But qualified to light up a world of darkness A day walker, I love walkin' in the sunlight I look dirty but I've been cleaned on the inside It's revolutionary, he's coming now for fellas and they can look at us strange But ain't nothing that they can tell us, cause
(Hook)
Verse 2: (Sonny Sandoval) Yeah, I'm free to rock this mic to walk right in a dark night lighted by the sun (we are free) I'm so free that I can fly while ya'll can't even crawl into a ball of freedom In my life I count the cost I take lost accused of treason And I could die for this cause and you might just be the reason And in order to if I must die it's denial of self And if you claim to be the way that means there ain't no one else I trust it, done, there ain't no room for discussion So if you just don't get it then let the just come with it I know that much more is required of all that I've been given But if ya'll claim to be alive then you gotta start livin You know why
(Hook)
Verse 3: (Dillavou) And him the only one to take me out of Babylon And him create me right and wrong And him create me script and song And that's why we stand firm upon the rock on which salvation, man And so we love the prospect and hope to put our helmet on And that is why we build upon for each and every chosen one Respectful to the elder-men who give guidance and correction So don't you quench the spirit man The Word is truth, the Word is one The Messiah give you Shalom Whoa-o-oah
(Hook)

Hillsong United is an Australian worship band. They started as the youth ministry band from Hillsong Church in Australia. Their music is praise and worship with a contemporary style that is a mix of contemporary Christian music and mainstream rock. The band was formerly named "United Live" and was led by Reuben Morgan and Marty Sampson. United Live made its first album in 1999 after a suggestion from worship pastor Darlene Zschech to Reuben Morgan. (This has been mentioned by Reuben in the documentary section of the United We Stand DVD) Following the advice, Reuben and Marty led the team in making their very first album, Everyday. They subsequently recorded 3 more albums with Reuben before changing the band's name from 'United Live' to 'Hillsong United' after Reuben's departure in 2002. Joel Houston, the son of the church's senior pastor, replaced Reuben, and stepped up to lead the group together with Marty. The band has toured in a number of countries, and their 2006 release United We Stand was the best selling album of 2006 in Canada at Christian retail stores.

Other members of Hillsong United include Jonathon Douglass (J.D.), Jadwin Gilles, Annie Garratt, Bec Gilles and Michelle Fragar who is the daughter of Russell Fragar also associated with Hillsong. Michael Guy Chislett plays guitar for Hillsong United and Matthew Tennikoff plays bass guitar. Popular New Zealand artist Brooke Fraser also makes contributions to the Hillsong United albums, (2005-) most recently in "All Of The Above" with the song "Hosanna" among others. There are many drummers that play for United including Rolf Wam Fjell who is the main drummer for Hillsong Music

The annual Hillsong United CD/DVD is recorded during their October youth conference Encounterfest; the album is released in February the following year. The 2007 Hillsong United album "All of the Above" was released on the 17th of March. Unlike all of the previous United albums, this CD was studio recorded.

To date in 2008, Hillsong United have released the first part of the I Heart Revolution recordings; 'With Hearts as One', made live around the world during the band's recent tours. The CD features previously released United tracks recorded live in different locations, and the first installment of a live DVD.

In 2009, they released 'Across the Earth: Tear down the walls', followed by 'A F T E R M A T H' on February 15th 2011.

On February 14, 2012, 'LIVE IN MIAMI (Welcome to the Aftermath)' was released. It contained songs from both the album Aftermath, and several other of their greatest hits, such as "The Stand," "With Everything," and "Your Name High." It was also the first fully recorded Hillsong United tour.
