Great Post about hillsong worship chords lyrics. Thanks for sharing.
You have no idea, this song is my favorite song of 2018 to lead worship with. It’s probably been in 40% of my setlists since January, haha 🙂 The bridge is so powerful too, and of course I love Brooke so that’s what got me on to the song.
