My Father, I adore You more
Than anything my heart could wish for
I just want You and Jesus, my beloved Savior
Everything I am, I owe to You, I owe it all to You

And angels come and adore You
And we, Your children worship You
You are my world, You are my God
And I lay down my life for You
You are my Lord the One I love
No one could ever take Your place

And everything I have, I give to You
My Lord, the One I live for, I live for You
And all my days are gifts from You
I pray I'd use them as You want me to
Use them for You

And angels come and adore You

The praise and worship song by Hillsong in all albums made me very blessed. My faith gradually recovered when I heard the songs that were anointed. I have always really liked the songs created by Hillsong.

My favorite Hillsong Church album. Here in Brazil we have a very similar reference, which is the ministry of Louvor Diante do Trono with vocalist Ana Paula Valadão.

One of my favourite Hillsong Worship albums of all time! It gives me nostalgic memories of when I was getting ready to come, and my arrival, in Australia! ‘Cause I’ve watched this DVD in Brazil, where I’m from!
Louvai ao Senhor! 🙏🏾✝️
