With their own hearts yearning to see the kingdom of God established on Earth as it is in heaven, the band desires to impact the body of Christ through bringing the reality of the Father's presence, life, and love to every gathering, while promoting a genuine relationship with God in the midst of their worship—and they have done just that.
Everywhere they go, they experience greater depths of joy, and a release of the prophetic in the local church. They hear testimonies of miracles and healing taking place in their worship services and authentic life changes coming as a result of God’s presence. Their desire to meet with Him has resulted in genuine worship, changing not only their lives but the lives of those who experience God through their music.
Performing first on the familiar stage of their home church, City Church of Tampa Bay, and sister venue, The Porch, the band soon began receiving interest in leading regional worship events. They have been called on for worship services, camps, events and conferences for youth, college and adult audiences and completed two national tours off their debut album, Ben Davis EP.
With many tours to come and their first full length worship album to be released June 21st on new label Come&Live! the coming year has many blessings in sight for the band.
Fall
Ascend The Hill Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And I just can't help but see it this way
And I know You're telling me to cast my cares aside and you know I try
But these walls I've built just won't let me see You
And these walls I've built just won't let me hear You
And these walls are just walls I've built between You and me
If I could see You, if I could hear You
Then I'd know I need You just as before
My selfish pride, these things inside, they always get the best of me
Show me love, teach me truth, break my heart and bring me back to You
Take these dreams, this is me, all I am here at Your feet
Take me as I am, with You I want to be
Of all this world it's you I wanna see
So I'm here on my knees
I need only to see Your face again
I need only to hear Your voice again
I have only all I am, all I am
And all I am is all I have in You
So I fall on my knees again
These walls are just I've built between You and me
I fall on my knees again
The lyrics of Ascend The Hill's song Fall express a feeling of being disconnected from God due to the walls built up by the singer. The world around them seems overwhelming at times and they struggle to hear the voice of God telling them to cast their cares aside. The singer admits to having selfish tendencies and a prideful spirit that keeps them from fully experiencing God's love and truth.
The walls they have built between themselves and God are a metaphor for the barriers created by sin and negative thought patterns. The singer acknowledges that they need to be broken down in order to see and hear God more clearly. They long to be brought back to God and surrender all they are to Him.
Through the repetition of the phrase "I fall on my knees again," the singer shows a sense of humility and desperation towards God. They are willing to let go of their own pride and surrender themselves to His will. The song ultimately expresses a desire to be reunited with God and a recognition of the barriers that have been created.
Overall, Fall is a heartfelt expression of the struggle to connect with God in a world that can feel isolating and overwhelming. The song highlights the importance of surrendering oneself and seeking guidance from God in order to overcome the barriers created by sin and personal struggles.

«Muéstrame el amor, enséñame la verdad,
destroza mi corazón y tráeme de vuelta a Ti.
Toma estos sueños, esto soy yo;
a tus pies todo lo que soy.»
No he encontrado una canción mejor que esta que describa como me he sentido estas semanas.
