More about this title

About the Artist: Hillsong

Hillsong Church, based in Australia, has become one of the most influential modern worship music creators globally. Their songwriting emphasizes accessible melodies paired with theologically grounded lyrics, making their catalog a staple in contemporary Christian music education and worship settings.

The collaborative spirit defining Hillsong's output extends to their willingness to adapt songs across multiple instruments and skill levels. Their arrangements prioritize singability and congregational participation, qualities that make their work particularly valuable for music educators working with diverse ensemble sizes and abilities.

Why we love this

Hillsong's songs translate remarkably well to ukulele, and this arrangement captures the warmth and conviction the original demands without requiring advanced technical facility. A two-page chart keeps students focused on expression and communication rather than wrestling with complexity, making it an excellent choice for mixed-ability ensembles or small group settings where musical intention matters more than instrumental virtuosity.

What to expect

This arrangement radiates sincerity and accessibility. The ukulele's intimate timbre pairs naturally with the song's direct declaration of faith, creating a sound that feels both humble and assured. Two pages of music unfold with enough space for genuine musical growth without overwhelming the player.

Who it's for

Ukulele students of intermediate beginner through early intermediate ability looking for repertoire with immediate musical meaning. Directors seeking worship or sacred music selections for school or community choir concerts, all-ages church services, or interfaith musical programs.

How to get the most out of it

  • Shape the melody with dynamics that reflect the lyrical content; the affirmation in these lyrics deserves a sound that grows in confidence from verse to verse.
  • Lock the rhythmic feel early in rehearsal by establishing a steady pulse that sits comfortably under the fingerpicking pattern, then layer in the melodic line.
  • Lean into the resonance of the ukulele's natural sustain rather than dampening every chord change; this instrument's charm often lies in what you let ring.

How to use it

Include this in a concert program featuring modern worship music or contemporary sacred songs, pairing it with instrumental and vocal pieces that echo similar themes of affirmation. It works equally well as a featured solo item within a larger concert or as part of a small ensemble set highlighting the ukulele's versatility in non-traditional ensemble contexts.

Skills your students will build

  • Reading chord charts and chord melody notation on ukulele
  • Maintaining consistent rhythmic feel while executing fingerpicking patterns
  • Connecting lyrical content to interpretive musical choices
  • Building phrase awareness and shaping melodic lines expressively
