Hillsong Worship - Bright As The Sun | #BelieversCompanion


Hillsong Worship, one of the most established church-based praise and worship collectives, has a catalogue packed with live albums—one for nearly every year since 1992—and those recordings capture congregations fervently singing along. 

The album, Awake was made differently: Hillsong’s leaders brought their songs into the studio. “The sound of Hillsong Worship is the sound of the church, primarily,” explains Brooke Ligertwood, who leads the group and co-produced the album. “You put on a record and you can hear our church singing. Before we entered this process, we had to ask ourselves some questions: What's the sound of our community when you take it out of that live context?” Many of the arrangements build towards anthemic pop-rock catharsis, progressing from hushed single-voice intros to billowing guitars, keyboards and choral harmonies and churning tom-tom patterns, all treated with reverb and ambient effects that give the tracks an immersive quality. Here Ligertwood goes through each of the album’s 12 tracks.

Bright as the Sun


“In all his writing with Hillsong United and Hillsong Worship over the years, Joel Houston’s really given a generation a new kind of devotional language. He's one of the best lyricists ever, I think, and so here we have a classic Joel Houston song: a lot of words, all extremely poetically placed in a really beautiful devotional journey that grows and gets you to a place that you perhaps didn't expect to get to at the beginning of the song.”
