I am not a Christian... but I made a reaction video to this song and I got super emotional... and hearing this story makes me love this song even more!
U made like three reactions of this song...i loved all of them..
Can u please react to With Everything by Hillsong United live from Miami?
That's why I found the back story. Because of your reaction video,😊 I found your reaction videos and I want you to know I have been praying for you every day since! Love seeing the Holy Spirit move on you while you listen.
Bro, Ask Jesus into your heart say that you are a sinner ( we are all are) say that you want him to be your Lord and Saviour. and he will do his part in your life.
What is the updated reaction to this song now you’re a Christian!!!???
Ooooh 😲
When Tulele said "did you write that song about me?" I got goosebumps. Truly, it is God who gave Joel the discernment to give this to Tulele. Those kinds of moments are what I call miracle. ♥️
Yesss❤😩
Oh my God, I can't stop crying when I am listening to this song
the fact that this song is also about me....and that part just wrecks me
"I can't sing it without crying."
Me : cAN RELATE
Me toooo
Samee
Me too...
😢
Joel I don’t know if you’ll ever see this. I’m sure someone on the HSU team is in charge of uploading and monitoring comments etc. I still want to put it out there. If He hasn’t already, I pray God allows you to see this side of Heaven, the massive impact and value you are to the worldwide Body of Christ. I know it’s a team effort, but your heart, lyrics and sensitivity to God has forever changed how we worship. Through you we’ve been given words to express our Love and hearts to God. Great is your reward now and in eternity.
I totally agree with you.
Same! 🙏🏼
I'm agree 👌👌
Amen. I agree!
True indeed.. This guy is awesome
Joel is a spiritual poet. You can easily identify any song he writes, because they always speak to the heart and soul.
Paul Imisi spiritual poet 💞 love this!
His songs are just poetic and the music very good but nothing more. He has driven hillsong music on the wrong side. Why cant he just sing simple christain song like the way hiilsong music were when darlene and reuben were main architect. Sometimes u just wonder what he is saying in his songs - a good example is glorious ruins. I appreciate the songs of ben fielding , reuben morgan much more. Infact , the they cant compare in terms of depth and simplicity of christain lyrics. Simple and points more to the praise of God rather all these songs about our emotions and struggles with sin that appeals to our emotions. Now he is dominating the hillsong music and messing up everything for the sake of poetry
😊
I have makeup on my face for a special day in my work today and listened to him with his voice and his testimony damaged all my makeup 😭 because I couldn't hold back my tears. That is me today
This made me cry like a little kid. In my car alone while people passing me probably wondering what's up with that guy. How truly blessed I am to know The Holy Spirit.
Yes, I spend most of my commutes in tears!! Other drivers probably think I'm having a perpetual breakdown, but you and I know, don't we.
John Rand His love connects us on a different level! Be blessed brother 🖤
forever grateful this song was birthed. it really is indescribable.
This song allowed me to realize that I am not alone on my journey with Christ, making mistakes on my journey is normal and I’m still loved. I thought that I was the only one who had a hard time surrendering myself to Christ fully and changing my action. But still when I’m ready he is there to catch me.
This is so cool for me, who grew up listening to Hillsong United; and to see Tulele singing with them again!
The best songs come from experience.
Joel I believe that God has put you in that situation for a reason, every happed for a reason, you wrote the song that can save millions of souls, God bless you and the team
Wow. So true.
I knew there would be an awesome backstory to this song, but I had no idea how personal to Joel that it would be. Thank you for sharing this! The instant I heard this song I loved it and it has been on repeat, literally everyday for me. The lyrics are so true for all of us, it is such a blessing!
Such humility. God bless you Joel and all the band. Keep being used by God.
❤🎉😊
"Reconciling my shadow" that got to me. Joel should talk more about that
He should. I was confronted by the shadow in an out of body experience. I tried to fight it and run from it. It began a 15 year journey of looking for answers and help in all the wrong places: theosophy, Eastern mysticism, new age stuff. That path nearly destroyed everything precious in my life, including my health. It turns out that all I needed to do was pick up the Bible and turn to Jesus. The shadow is no match for the light of Jesus and the love of The Holy Spirit.
Watched this earlier this morning and I was on the verge of tears. Not sad tears but thankful tears. I've been in and out of seasons of self-doubt, lack of confidence, lack of purpose and so on. Each of those seasons leading to deep depression. But I am so glad that this song was written. And I'm so glad I listened to it and knew immediately that this was my victory song because of God's never-ending, never failing love for me. It's so amazing how God's love for me was so huge that it kept me literally alive and I cannot take that for granted. Joel, Ben and Matt, thank you for coming together to write this song. Tulele, thank you for leading this song with such authority and passion. Hillsong United, thank you for all that you do. Much love!!!
Your comment just reminded of the journey I went through... then the Holy Spirit told me why I went through it. The result is miraculous
Same here brother
"And let us not grow weary while doing good, for in due season we shall reap if we do not lose heart."
Galatians 6:9
Im gonna say it again: Joel is A Musical Genius🙌🏾
You have to watch Tulele’s testimony before you watch this video to truly understand the deeper meaning of this song. I promise it will change the way to hear this song ever again..
Look up “Tulele - Hills”
Link please. I cant find it.

man when tulele does those vocals runs i just lost it, you can FEEL it
Thank you Joel, Matt, Tulele and Ben! Be blessed!
The most beautiful song ever, and it’s so authentic, relatable and transparent . God bless Yous
All the way from South Africa, i have this song's lyrics on my wall. First time i heard it i was a mess and to know that God Loves Me As He Finds Me and He doesn't care where i am but He cares that He is with me, renewed my strength. I personally thank God for you Sir, my life is touched and changed through all that you went through. God squeezed oil out of you just to anoint His church, His children. God bless you.
Same here, I got new zeal, and passion after hearing this. It was as if God was saying -look child, enough wallowing lets continue. I am eternally grateful to the entire Hillsong family
I'm from South Africa too... I heard it from my roommate last year and was hooked it's like a warm hug
The first time I heard this, the word “His grace to spare for all my mistakes...” its true it wrecked me in a way that, who am I to be loved by this God? Just tears falling man as I repeat through out the night and have my devotions and journals which amplified how He’s just madly in love with me. It wrecked me.. up till now
Joel, an inspirational, talented and poetic writer. His songs touch deep to the fibres of the soul
that beard is on point... this group helped to change my life.. Thank you God for putting all of these great musicians in the same place at the same time for your glory.
I feel like me and my hubby and his brother were a part of praying Joel through. We didn't know specifically what he was going through but the Holy Spirit was really showing us specific things to pray about. Now it all makes sense. After the album was finished the burden lifted but while we had it it was intense. That is how intercession works. And I have to say I am blown away by Tuele!
That's sooo amazing!!! thanks for sharing.
God bless you richly for being faithful in the place of intercession
Thanks Joel and Hillsong for bringing worship song to this earth. When im hearing the journey and stories of this song, the feeling of Jesus that really want me to know the reality of human life is and we cannot leave outside of Him. Our life journey is like hiking the mountain, going down to the valley and sometimes swimming across the lake. At the end of the our everyday journey, we need Jesus and we have He want us to have faith to Him every step. God bless and im grateful can share this to us.
This song changed my life.
This song hits hard! It's raw, it's real and it's true. This song is for everyone! Every and anyone can relate in some form. The emotion in this song and the emotions that come out, its like a cleansing!
the song is very relatable..it's like you're writing my christian journey..that's why i love this song very much..thank you for putting words to my unspoken words..💓💓💓God bless you more hillsong..
My christian journey too.
Was just thinking of the same thing. How this dude is able to translate a glimpse of the very words in my heart that cries out abba - is a gift. Thank you Joel Houston 🙏🏽
Yes, that's exactly it! Are any of you guys blogging your faith journey?
I have walked with God for seven years now, and since the very beginnig Joel´s and the whole Hillsong team´s songs have acted like a balm on my spirit. May God continue to use the whole Hillsong ministry and help them bring more souls to the feet of Jesus. The best is yet to come, in Jesus name!
Amen!
May God bless you too Eloy. Thank you.
This Song touched me 100 %. Im still in that place where I feel this way but every time listen to the song it breaks something in me and then builds up back space for God's love to pour into more. Have it on repeat every day. it's a good reminder that wherever we are, Jesus pours out his love anyway. Thank UNITED team. Jesus is truly touched by these lyrics and so is the people! God Bless! ❤
Tulele, Joel, Matt Crocker, Brooke Fraser, Jad Gillies, Taya & JD...
missing the darlene, marty sampson and michelle fragar for the best team of Hillsong Worship back! ❤❤❤❤❤
God loves Hillsong United as he finds them
And also Taya Gaukrodger

Thank You Jesus for everything You do in my life, please, help who are reading it, guide him/her to the cross
you know when you know a song for a while and think it’s such a good song, but that’s it. then weeks, months, maybe even years later there is just a moment where it hits different. where it has all the words, where it is your heart in a song at that moment. where it’s the song you need for your season or situation. where it just wrecks you. this. this is that moment for me.
Couldn’t agree more. This hits even more a year later 🙏🏼
This song hit home, God has a plan.
I relate to second guessing ourself and our ministry after being there for so long... we wonder there's still impact to what we're doing and if there's more in us to give... Then we come to remember that it's not about what we can do, and it's never been. But whether about what God can do through us. So as long as God has a message for this generation I still wanna be the voice in the desert. Your testimony, Joel has such an impact on me because it made realise if one of the greatest worship leaders of this time felt unfit for this position, just as I do, it confirms that only God qualifies the people He wants to use to serve his glory.
I have been listening to this song from 2020 till now. And every single time I am reminded of God's unfailing love.
Brother this mans voice is outstanding wow
🙇🏾🙇🏾🙇🏾
If you want my heart ♥
I won't second guess 😥
'Cause I need Your Love
More than anything
I'm in
I'm Yours
Your Love' s too good to leave me here
Your Love' s too good to leave me
Im not perfect but im in.🙏💕
You are perfect in some way no one is perfect. I AM also not perfect be your self in your ways
Every one is perfect in ther ways no one is perfect me also i AM also not perfect in my ways
This literally makes the song 10 times better! There's really something to be said about God using all things for your good(and the good of others) even when it doesn't make sense at first. So much love!❤🤗
Please please please bring tulele to the USA tour and please put him on more songs his voice comes straight from god
100%
Thank you Joel for putting word to unexplainable pain turning it into a beautiful praise to God. I relate to feeling like that. Godbless you ♥️💯
Hi mr. Joel houston just wanted to let you know how much I love this song I can't listen to it with out crying I always wanna see the story about it and when i see you talking about it I just start praising God .the first time I hear it I said jesus show you my life and you write it for me .I thank you soooooooo much for your amazing songs I will forever pray for you and the rest of hillsongs love all of you God blessed you
The story behind it all makes me love this song even more! Thank you for being willing to be a vessel. Broken and poured out.
This wrecked me! 😭 This is me! I'm in!
I remember when the Lord spoke to me to pray for you. The sense in my spirit was you were suffering. I just had a sense to reach out and let you know the creator of heaven and earth and everything in between is on your side. It’s just the Jesus way. The journey through the season is worthy of the reward. I’m in.
I'm in.
This is so beautiful! You're not the first person to comment this - God was surely working behind the scenes ♥️♥️♥️
This song is speaking volumes to me ,always in tears every time l listen to it thanks hillsong united
This song has gotten me my out of depression and anxiety attacks. It felt you wrote this song about me. Thank you Joel
I love the depth of this. Our God deserves nothing but full confidence in Him
He deserves more then we can give Him
Am from Kenya, Africa. This song just came at the right time. There's a lot going on in my family right now..this song is so relatable and touching..plan an African tour one time. I love Hillsong.
Anne Wambui, our Unfailing Father will see you and your family through in whatever it is that is going on.
Thank you Leon,and Amen.
Love All my BEAUTIFUL Awesomeness 💘❤️ Angels From GOD 🙏 From Heaven- GOD 🙏 & Jesus keep Blessing All of my BEAUTIFUL Awesome Angel Hill Song Group for ever Till Heaven forever, through Jesus Christ name we pray AMEN
This is the best song both lyrics & melodically Hillsong has ever put out hands down! Extremely relatable and authentic. Amazing.
Joel, you are one of a kind. Keep it up
I am from Tanzania , Joel you have been inspiring me a lot , I've been learning a lot from you and I've been transformed by the ministry that God imparted in you.. God bless Joel, Crocker, Tulele and the whole team.
God is real using you guys to transform us.
I just can't stop listening to this song. It just resonates with how I m feeling...
Whenever Tulele sings 'I NEED YOU SO BAD', I sing it at the top of my lungs
I haven't felt the Holy Spirit so strong just listening to a song at home like I have with As you find me. It's so anointed, and knowing the story behind it now, it shows how important it is to be vulnerable and real knowing we haven't got it all worked out. Glad you're in a better place, Joel.
I started to backslide because of a lot of pain and bitterness in my life. I was scared to come back but this song gave me hope. God bless Joel Houston and the Hillsong family
Thank you for being real, raw and authentic!!! We all have these moments!!! So great that we are all FAMILY!!!! Thank you ABBA DADDY FOR YOUR LOVE!!!
Man.. Tulele's short clips.. I know them by heart! This brings me back to my basic levels.. I know that time and time again, I shout my heart's out to God and then fail countless times.. But I'm still here.. I am still in! It is refreshing to know that no amount of mistakes or failure will out love the love of God for us.. Man oh man.. I won't second guess.. This song wrecks me! And it is so good!
Love you brother ❤️ 💙 🙏 ♥️ 💕 ❤️ 💙 🙏
Anointed song, love Tulele back in HIillsong Unted.
I knew the lyrics were written out of personal experience(s). These kind of songs are written based on having a deep fellowship with God. When we focus on God rather than our problems, we get the answers; for God inhabits the praises of his people.
Wow! Such humility. This song has got me Crying for days now
It's like I told u my life story and u guys just put a melody to it. Coz this is my life exactly
You guys have written so many great songs. This is the most amazing, most powerful song you all have written so far. I love it and it wrecks me everytime. Can't wait to hear it live at The Colour Conference and in Chicago.
Beautiful song and a beautiful testimony Joel. That song really touches my heart. Thank you for being transparent we need real raw emotions when we go before our Savior. He.knew what you were going to write/sing before you did.
God bless you from Tuscaloosa, ALabama!
Joel, I have listened to 'People' for the past 2 weeks every day. I told my wife on Sunday, 'This young man had an encounter with God in Scotland!' The messages in the song have spoken powerfully to me (I'm about to turn 60) and revealed some truth that I needed to hear also. Thank you!
This song is my favorite song. Sometimes i feel like i failed because the human in me overpowered me but thanks to this song made me realize that God's love is too good to leave me here.
This is the most power beautiful song. The lyrics just the right words to tell God.
It’s impossible not to cry when you hear and sing it... God is always faithful.
This song spoke to me and I sat and just cried all night because I felt every single word man.. thank God for Hillsong United ❤️
So many people watch this from America latina, it will be awesome that you put subtitles in your videos.
Blessings from México !!
A crying man is a broken man & that my friends is beautuful to our Lord Jesus Christ! Love this!! 🙏
"Your Love is too good to leave me here"
This verse hits me DEEP!
I have been so low, I've been so broken and I've been to the point where I thought I've had it all together, but God never left me, He never gave up on me, He fought for this orphan, He chased this lost sheep, He welcomed this prodigal son back into His loving arms and home with joy in His heart!
I was so lost and broken, I clung to alcohol and self-harm, I lived recklessly but God loved me so much, He didn't want to leave me where I was. He took me as I was and loved me until I was whole again.
Now I know people who are walking through valleys, but God is with them and I know He won't leave them there either, how I know that? Well, His love is too good to leave us 💜
I just can't wait for the day when we will all run into our lovely Father's loving arms and embrace Him with joy and gratefulness in our hearts and we will live forever with Him and praise Him together as the big family that we are ❣✝❣
Whatever you're going through, just know that our Father loves you more than you can imagine, beyond unconditionally, and He always will, you're not alone and trust me, dark valleys have ends, but God's light and grace are limitless and boundless 💖 We are beloved 💖
Bruh, I don't even know Tulele but I'm glad he sang this one. Makes me want to go back and listen to old United stuff. The reprise at the end really gets me...
Old United is so good!
This song brings me close to God
I miss hearing Joel talk about God and life, he knows how to explain feelings really well. Every time I hear him, I’m encouraged to keep loving God w a deep love.
"That's the option for us every single day. Are you in or are you out?" So thankful for every moment I can choose to be in each day.
This song i guess was for me just like Tulele. Everytime i listen to it i break and find myself just praying. Thank you so much Hillsong.
I AM from in Angola( África), This song is too beautiful.
We all have days like that. I so needed to hear what you had to say. Thank you 🙏 🇬🇧
Aprill Roberts excuse me, do you know their next concert here in the Uk?hi from Birmingham anyway.
Akos B hmm I don’t know but I can find out. I managed to see the last one ☝️
Aprill Roberts thanks
"call it a day and grow a beard' I'm glad that the Lord give us shadows, and how He used your shadow to make this song that speaks to our soul that helps the Holy Spirit to shine through and speak through
This song is a blessing for me and my family.
God bless you Joel Houston.
Hillsong..u always minister to me , song through song, album to album..deeper may God Almighty always bless u.
Lord comforts all who are in distress at this moment, distressed with their downcast soul, in the name of Jesus I ask you Lord🙌
Common, can't do nothing but love the church 🙌 Glory to God!!
The sheer rawness and honesty of this song is what makes love it. The guilt of being loved by HIM even though we are undeserving just breaks me down. Thank you Lord for such an amazing people. Keep up the good work🙏
This song really spoke to me. Thank you for putiing ingo notes and words the unexplainable love of God through Christ! 🙏👏🙌
“If you want my heart” which he does, that’s all he wants from us.... Our hearts. ....Love this song!!!!!!
I'm from Guatemala. Thank you Hillsong United for this God bless y'all
This song has spoke to me so. many. times. Even the story behind it ❤️
i thought i was the only one who was going through this, i kept asking myself how people stayed so strong and am here second guessing everything like what am doing is not enough like my good just isn't good enough this song gives me hope..I thank God for hillsong everyday i just find myself confessing ans leaning towards God even more..thank you for this song
King David (after writing Psalm 51): "No one is going to write a better song about man's brokenness and vulnerability and God's everlasting kindness and goodness."
Joel Houston: "Hold my beer."
maybe not beer lol
This is my favorite worship song. It really hits
this song has impacted me SO MUCH both spiritually and emotionally!!!!!
Great testimony my brother. Yes LORD i need your love more than ANYTHING. I'm in.
This song might save me again;
😢
Such a powerful, moving Testimony. Joel Houston, so incredibly grateful for your honesty, vulnerability and for pouring your life out so that we can grasp hold of God in worship.
