On February 14, 2012, 'LIVE IN MIAMI (Welcome to the Aftermath)' was released. It contained songs from both the album Aftermath, and several other of their greatest hits, such as "The Stand," "With Everything," and "Your Name High." It was also the first fully recorded Hillsong United tour.
In 2013, United continued to their long string of worship albums withcompletely new material entitled Zion. Mixing a new digital sound, and their signature lyrics, they topped charts globally, and Zion became Hillsong United's highest selling album. Some songs include Oceans (Where Feet May Fail), Scandal Of Grace, Relentless, Love Is War, and Nothing Like Your Love. In late 2013, after the massive success of their song Oceans (Where Feet May Fail), United released an entire EP entitled Oceans. Not too long afterwards, United released an acoustic version of the album Zion, and in March 2014, they released their first remix album entitled "The White Album Project".
Prince Of Peace
Hillsong United Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
The Prince of peace came bursting through the wind
The violent sky held its breath
And in Your light I found rest
Tearing through the night
Riding on the storm
Staring down the fight
Shining like the sun
Striding through my fear
The Prince of peace met me there
You heard my prayer
Hope like the sunlight piercing through the dark
The Prince of peace came and broke into my heart
The violent cross, the empty grave
And in Your light I found grace
Tearing through the night
Riding on the storm
Staring down the fight
My eyes found Yours
Shining like the sun
Striding through my fear
The Prince of peace met me there
You're always there
And You hear my prayer
Your love surrounds me when my thoughts wage war
When night screams terror, there Your voice will roar
Come death or shadow, God I know Your light will meet me there
When fear comes knocking, there You'll be my guard
When day breeds trouble, there You'll hold my heart
Come storm or battle, God I know Your peace will meet me there
Again and again
Oh, be still my heart
I know that You are God
Oh, fear no evil
For I know You are here
And my soul will know Your love surrounds me when my thoughts wage war
When night screams terror, there Your voice will roar
Come death or shadow, God I know Your light will meet me there
And my soul will know When fear comes knocking, there You'll be my guard
When day breeds trouble, there You'll hold my heart
Come storm or battle, God I know Your peace will meet me there
Oh, be still my heart
And my soul will ever know that You are God
And You heard my prayer

Príncipe da Paz
Meu coração, uma tempestade
Nuvens se agitam aqui dentro
O Príncipe da Paz
Chegou rompendo através do vento
O céu violento segurou o fôlego
E em Tua luz eu encontrei descanso
Irrompendo a noite
Comandando a tempestade
Encarando a batalha
Meus olhos encontraram os Teus
Brilhando como o sol
Caminhando pelos meus medos
O Príncipe da Paz me encontrou ali
Tu ouviste minha oração
A esperança como o sol
A luz perfurando a escuridão
O Príncipe da paz
Veio quebrantar meu coração
A cruz violenta
O túmulo vazio
E em Tua luz eu encontrei graça
Irrompendo a noite
Comandando a tempestade
Encarando a batalha
Meus olhos encontraram os Teus
Brilhando como o sol
Caminhando pelos meus medos
O Príncipe da Paz me encontrou ali
Tu estás sempre lá
Tu ouviste minha oração
Teu amor me envolve
Quando meus pensamentos querem guerra
Quando a noite anuncia o terror
Ali, Tua voz rugirá
Venha a morte ou a sombra
Deus, eu sei que Tua luz me achará ali
Quando o medo bate à porta
Tu serás o meu guia
Quando o dia gera problemas
Tu envolves meu coração
Venha a tempestade ou a batalha
Deus, eu sei
Tua paz irá me encontrar lá
Oh, que meu coração se acalme
Eu sei que Tu És Deus

This song personifies the pain of losing a loved one, and the pain of having to live without them. When the emotions coming crashing in, sometimes it's hard to close the floodgates, when all you want is for your heart to be whole again.

I’m disappointed in the Hillsong church once again. Seems they don’t pay their artists a worthy wage, and here they are still so money hungry that they put a commercial in the middle of this historically beautiful worship song. Lord forgive my judgments
