Editor's note

Hillsong United, the youth band that grew up

What started as a church youth group became a defining voice in modern worship music.

If you want the full picture, listen to 'Oceans' and then something like 'Prince Of Peace'. That's the range.

They turned Sunday morning into something you could sing in your car on a Tuesday. 'Oceans (Where Feet May Fail)' from their 2013 album 'Zion' became one of those songs that just seemed to be everywhere in Christian circles for a while. Their newer stuff like 'Another In The Fire' keeps that same direct, anthemic feel.

They began in 1998 as the youth band for Hillsong Church in Sydney. Early albums like 'All of My Best' from 2001 were made for their own church services, and the lineup has shifted over the years with people like Joel Houston, Taya Smith, and Matt Crocker involved.
