Hillsong's 'Let There Be Light' Debuts at #1

Hillsong Worship

Australian megachurch's worship team Hillsong Worship's new live worship LP, Let There Be Light, debuts at No. 1 on Billboard's Top Christian Albums chart (dated Nov. 5). The album sold 16,000 copies in its first week. 

"More than anything, our greatest hope for this record is that it will give people something to sing that rages against the chorus of division and fear that seems to be making so much noise right now," Hillsong's Joel Houston tells Billboard. "God knows the world needs more love, more empathy, more hope, more light."

In support of the live project recorded from the annual Hillsong Conference in Sydney, the Hillsong Channel is presenting in pursuit of the light. Sharing an insight into the creative process and heart of Hillsong Worship's latest album, the documentary contains exclusive interviews from the Hillsong Worship team including Reuben Morgan, Joel Houston and Brooke Ligertwood.

Including anthems such as "What a Beautiful Name," "Behold (Then Sings My Soul)," "Grace to Grace" and the title track "Let There Be Light," the hope is that individuals, worship teams and churches alike will be equipped, edified and mobilized by these declarations and prayer songs that speak to the days we are living in, proclaiming the immutable hope we have in Jesus Christ. To hear Ligertwood share about the heart behind and process of writing "What A Beautiful Name" from the LP, click below.
