We played this while I was in labor and as I gave birth to my son. The Holy Spirit filled that hospital room with a thick presence. He was born into peace. Even the staff said it was the most peaceful birth they have ever been a part of. Thank you Jesus❤

Unshakeable! Rejoicing in the Lord as as always as the Lord establishes His Power, His Purpose, and His Will.

I've missed the Original players and worship leaders of Hillsong. This is the kind of worship song I grew up as a worship leader and Miss Darlene has always been my modeled when it comes to worship leading aside from Vineyard and Integrity Music
