Village Lights Share “Here Is Our Hallelujah (Live)”

Master June 23, 2023 2 min read 0

“Here Is Our Hallelujah,” initially released on Village Lights’s debut album in 2021, is now reintroduced as a live version featuring their community. The single is a worshipful song growing from beautiful simplicity to a full-fledged anthem with a communal pattern of echoing the praises being sung.

The central message displayed in the song’s title truly reflects a collective “hallelujah”, meaning “praise the Lord.” “Music is always best when made in a community,” shares multiple GRAMMY-nominated worship leader Matt Maher, who mentors the group. “This requires such a level of trust. Every great artist knows this fundamental truth. Art is something best shared.

I love this group and their willingness to include so many in their journey of creativity. I am honored to help them as a producer bring this treatment of the end of the liturgical year into a collective work of song for the Church and the pilgrimage of the believer.” The song carries Village Lights’s heartbeat of unity, inclusivity, and reconciliation wrapped in worshipful devotion.

Seeing themselves as more than a band, but rather a movement for those who seek justice in our world and Church, Village Lights was birthed from the relationship of three independent artists who often found themselves leading worship together at youth conferences and discovering a shared desire to create more modern worship music for more liturgical church spaces.
