The annual Hillsong United CD/DVD is recorded during their October youth conference Encounterfest; the album is released in February the following year. The 2007 Hillsong United album "All of the Above" was released on the 17th of March. Unlike all of the previous United albums, this CD was studio recorded.
To date in 2008, Hillsong United have released the first part of the I Heart Revolution recordings; 'With Hearts as One', made live around the world during the band's recent tours. The CD features previously released United tracks recorded live in different locations, and the first installment of a live DVD.
In 2009, they released 'Across the Earth: Tear down the walls', followed by 'A F T E R M A T H' on February 15th 2011.
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".
Rest in You
Hillsong United Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Where mountains fall and reason fails
And You calm the raging seas
And You calm the storms in me, again
All I know is I find rest in You
All I know is I find rest in You
Where singing seems a sacrifice
Your grace is all I need
Your grace is all I need
The beginning lines of Hillsong United's song "Rest in You" reverberate the message of the infinite and abiding faithfulness of God. It proclaims that despite the inevitability of shortcomings and misfortunes that come with the ephemerality of life, God's faithfulness endures through all things. Even when one's reason and logic fail to decipher uncertain or perplexing situations, and even when the very foundation of life as one knows it crumbles ("where mountains fall"), God has the power to take charge of any and every tumultuous situation and bring peace ("calm the raging seas and storms in me").
The chorus deeply embeds the central message of the song as it declares the singer's unwavering confidence with finding rest in God. It insinuates that one does not have to fathom every minute detail of their lives or how God works in it to attain peace and comfort; but rather - recognizing and acknowledging the magnitude of God's love, faithfulness, and sovereignty can be more than enough to provide rest and solace to one's soul. The bridge of the song proclaims that even when everything seems to be going wrong, when one is struggling, and it seems like utter darkness surrounds them, the grace of God is enough to strengthen and provide for them.

My lil sister just reminded me of this song today...and I'm just filled with tears realising how intimately I once knew God then I walked away from his ways and now all I feel is mercy and grace as He brings me back home. 😢

When Life gets overwhelming go to a bible verse in the bible that helps your mind. Read it over and over. Think about that verse.
