Hillsong UNITED Releases Their New Single "Even When It Hurts (Praise Song)"

Hillsong United

Hillsong UNITED has had a successful year this year.  Their fourth album "Empiires" which was released in May was a #5 entry on Billboard's 200 and it hit #1 on the Billboard Christian Album Chart.  "Empires" also reach the pole position in the worship team's homeland of Australia.  Now they have released their latest single "Even When It Hurts (Praise Song)" lifted off "Empires."  

Writen by UNITED's Joel Houston, the song features Taya Smith on lead vocals.  The accompanying video of "Even When It Hurts" was filmed in four locations -- starting in Capitol Studio LA and ending in Allphones Arena in Sydney, Australia. 

"Following the journey of the song through the first four times we ever played it live, from studio to arena -  there is a parallel to be found within the narrative of seasons and days, the constant unpredictability of life, and the unchanging, unfailing nature of God and His faithfulness - and what singing His praises unlocks in us," leader and vocalist Joel Houston tells Billboard.  "In this journey, the song serves as the constant and honest confession within us, as the environment and atmosphere changes like the seasons come-and-go around us."

Here are the lyrics of "Even When It Hurts (Praise Song):"

Take this fainted heart
Take these tainted hands
Wash me in Your love
Come like grace again

Even when my strength is lost
I'll praise You
Even when I have no song
I'll praise You
Even when it's hard to find the words
Louder then I'll sing Your praise

I will only sing Your praise
I will only sing Your praise
I will only sing Your praise

Take this mountain weight
Take these ocean tears
Hold me through the trial
Come like hope again

Even when the fight seems lost
I'll praise You
Even when it hurts like hell
I'll praise You
Even when it makes no sense to sing
Louder then I'll sing Your praise

I will only sing Your praise
I will only sing Your praise
I will only sing Your praise

And my heart burns only for You
You are all You are all I want
And my soul waits only for You
And I will sing till the morning has come

Lord my heart burns only for You
You are all You are all I want
And my soul waits only for You
And I will sing till the miracle comes

I will only sing Your praise
I will only sing Your praise
I will only sing Your praise

Even when the morning comes
I'll praise You
Even when the fight is won
I'll praise You
Even when my time on earth is done
Louder then I'll sing your praise

I will only sing Your praise
