God’s specialty is speaking to chaos. The weight and power of His word is such that it carries elemental force. In Genesis 1 His Word speaks creation into being, bringing order and beauty out of “chaos and waste”. Later, in John 1, His Word literally enters creation as the God-Man, Jesus Christ, to redeem it all (Col 1:19-20) and bring life and beauty forth from the chaos and waste of fallen humanity. “Let there be light” is the prayer we boldly pray over this world today, echoing the very words of our Maker and anticipating His redemptive response. May the light that has shone on us through the Gospel be the light we now bear and shine forth as the Church of Jesus. Each song on the new Hillsong Worship project “Let There Be Light” is reflective of this core prayer. Including anthems such as “What a Beautiful Name”, “Behold”, “Grace to Grace” and the title track “Let There Be Light”, we believe that individuals, worship teams and churches alike will be equipped, edified and mobilised by these declarations and prayer songs that speak to the days we are living in, proclaiming the immutable hope we have in Jesus Christ.
