SO WILL I (100 Billion X) Song Story -- Hillsong UNITED 

This is arguably the greatest song ever written period. No genre specific...

This song actually change my life. I come back to Jesus after a long running out from Him.

I am a poet. I have combed over and studied these lyrics many times over the past month. This is one of theeeeee most beautiful songs I've heard this side of creation and the next. This song is oily with anointing. God is so amazing and creative. Thank you for being obedient with your pen.

I'm a science student and Christian at the same time and this song is a MASTERPIECE and science is literally following God, strengthening my faith. I still listen to this song every day since it came out!! It's a love song to God, purely glorifying HIM! For me, creation is the thing that brings me closer to God and leaves me in total awe of who God is. This song begins with the greatness of God and ends with His sacrifice and how much the God of the universe loves us. It leaves me in total awe! It makes me feel so small but loved at the same time.

I resigned from my job last year in November. Moved back home, where I left 7 years ago because I couldn't get any job. When I resigned last year, people kept asking me what was i going to do back home since it's a small town and have no teaching jobs. Plus I had 8 months twin boys who I was supporting alone. I came back home in December 2019. I applied for a post in a college in my town. One time my friend played this song in her car, it spoke to me and in January this year I was called to an interview along with many candidates. I was nervous but I remembered this song, I remembered the line "as you speak, a hundred billion failures disappear " I knew God was gonna be the one speaking on my behalf in that interview. And boy did he represent. The interview was so nice for me I didn't want it to end. And then I got the job. I love this song. Thank you for writing it. God bless you

Being someone who plays and listens worship music constantly, this is by far one of the best songs written in years. Amazing lyrics and structure...going from the biggest images and metaphors to the most intimate and powerful. So good.

Every part designed in a work of art called love

Joel is such a gifted writer, God uses him in such a powerful way with these songs! The way he explains and describes the songs always makes perfect sense to me.

This song will always be one of the best worship songs ever written! ❤

" It is not about a number, even the biggest number we can imagine is too small (infinitely small) for the reality of what God has done.." Joel Houston God bless you these deep words!

If a number/measure could amount to Your desire, Youre THE ONE who never leaves the one behind.🙌🙌🙌👉

This is one song that l believe was taken from the heavens and brought down to earth.The lyrics carry the description of Jesus and the deeper revelations of him.The best song that describes Jesus.What a song.

When art, science and poetry meet to express true worship to God from the heart. Still falls short but because God is above all everything but what a song...... I cant listen to it enough

This may be the best song ever written. I come to tears every time I imagine all the things he’s done for us. To go to the cross he loves us so much. To leave the 99 to find the 1 me. God is my salvation my strength my power. Amazing amazing job in this most powerful song. For God so loved the world that he gave his only son.

This kind of writing can only come from the presence of the most high God. Best song ever written!

This so is amazing, I visited Honolulu Hawaii this past summer and as I stood in AWE of the beauty of God's creation of the mountains and scenery there, this song played in my head in the background. I was left standing in tears several times because the lyrics of this song came to life. What an awesome gift you have continue to allow the Lord to use you in a mighty way. Blessings

I absolutely love this song !! It’s so Holy Spirit anointed and powerful and I saw Ben Hastings sing this live last week at the Albert Hall in Manchester UK 🇬🇧 and took a couple of videos to upload on instagram. His voice was so amazing! It was really emotional! Amen 🙏✝️🩷💒

This is like David's psalms....just amazing

I love the songs that Joel has written. They are so biblical, and they provide so much hope, and restoration. I wish that the Church would just preach like he writes. They could do amazing things for the world.

This story is profound and this kind of music or worship deserves a billion views and likes.

This song writing deserves a pen drop (like a mic drop). These are some of the most amazing and beautiful words I've ever heard.

God is moving me towards more worship music. I just discovered this song today and it has consumed my heart. "And as you speak a hundred billion failures disappear..." is the single greatest song lyric ever written, if you ask me.

The depths of this song is amazing. The first time I heard it I was in tears, overwhelmed by the magnitude of God's love. This song is not wishy-washy. This song encapsulates profound theology that brings to the heart a vision of God's love and draws out a response to love the lost people of the world empowered by His Spirit, and with the truth and grace of His Word. Thank you for blessing us with this song!

A true definition of psalms 148. May all of God's creation worship Him. This brings humility knowing that God is overall RULER and HAS POWER over everything. Praise Jesus!

This kind of song writing is mind blowing, its beyond imagination. We sing about God's greatness which is indescribable but still with this song you are able to to show God's greatness so deeply. Listening to this song is always wonderful, for me this song lyrics is number one.....Thank you Hillsong United.

This is the GREATEST WORSHIP SONG! argue all you want! Everything in this song complete 🎵 🎶

You can tell how much this man loves our God

The bar for Christian songwriting has been RAISED...absolutely beautiful and poetic capture of the purpose of life. From the choice to not have a consistent chorus to the choice of 100 billion and So Will I as key phrases was....CHILLING....GEEEEEEZ....not saying that it's about the songwriting....but the POETRY, GUYS!!!!!

This made me cry so hard..

By far the best worship song I’ve heard. Thank you Lord for Hillsong United.

In every single breath all creation gives Him praise!

Joel.. Thank you for allowing God use like this. What a humble man of God. We love you

Absolutely beautiful.. He is worthy

The greatest song of all time. Mind blowing lyrics! God must have touched the mind of Joel and the people behind it while writing the song. So amazing. Praise God for this ❤

You amazing man. This song always shake me from the inside out when I listen to it. Thanks to you and to God my father, creator, my everything. O Lord keep on blessing that man and his team.

Love you Joel. Keep pursing God's best for your life, because we all benefit as well

So Will I is one if the most beautiful songs I've heard. God-inspired! Just too awesome to describe.

I felt so tired. Today. And this song. Just few words in my mind. All day. I heard it only once some time ago. it kept coming today. Just few words. So I searched it. In the train. And I found it.. and. Oh my................. I just thank you, Holy Spirit for bringing it to my remembrance.

Favorite song of all time. I know this makes our Father smile. I can’t comprehend how well this was written. It is extremely God breathed. Well done.

God Bless you Joel. I can't stop crying every time I listen to this song. May the lord use you more. You have touched life with this song. Thanks you so much. Bless to have Hillsongs in our generation 🤗🤗🤗

This is profound. I fill the presence and greatness of God through this story.

The most powerful lyrics I have ever heard!!!! God bless you bro!!!!

This is a true worship.

This song is still one of my favorite song ❤

This is for sure one of the most beatiful songs i´ve ever heard in my life

My favorite off the new album. It's a very well written song. Those two need to write more songs together.

May God keep blessing Hillsong

Such a loving caring God He is

Such a powerful powerful song. Definitely devinely inspired. I love it so much the song totally breaks me down.. The lyrics, the melody, the purpose, the love ♥️♥️♥️

Every person matters to God ☺️❤️❤️

No measure can amount to Gods desire

This song greatly moves me :''( It tells God's genuine and pure heart. He's just so loving but so many rejects him. Makes me cry all the time. I'm even shedding tears while I'm typing this.

This song is even MORE powerful in 2021!

This song and its songwriters are a real gift to the world. The song beautifully captures the timeless truth that every time we pray to, praise or worship our God, it is simply in response to what he has already done for us and keeps on doing.

This is one of my favorite songs! Just so beautifully written and perfectly scriptural! Ben’s voice is stunning ❤️ I don’t care who wants to hate on them, there is no doubt in my mind that God is working through them and is blessed to hear the hearts of His children worshiping Him! I could listen to this song 100 billion times lol Thank you Hillsong United

No argument GREATEST SONG EVER

And JESUS said to him, If you can believe, all things are possible to him who believes. With GOD we can do everything Amen hallelujah 🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌

So will I.

The first time we sang this in church, it stopped me in my tracks and was unable to carry on singing! What an amazing song.

This is one of the most beautifully orchestrated song from Hillsong United. Thank you for capturing the awe of Gods wonders and his magnitude through these lyrics.

A living poem, thank you for it. Praise God! It truly blesses us. It is also wonderful that "So Will I" includes this powerful element of our will. Because as the song refers, everything created exist to worship God and do as He said, except humans. We need to will to worship Him. We choose. Beautiful reminders of all we can beautifully do with our will.

I feel it in my soul

What praise! What anointing! What art! 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾😇

Truly one of the greatest songs written , only the Spirit can express our love for the Father like this , therefore brother you are filled with the Spirit. God Bless you.

What a great song and history

Man Joel your writing is outstanding. You inspire me, really priceless stuff.

This truly is a magnificent testament to our Lord and Savior. I play guitar at my church and this one chokes me up it is so beautiful. Thank you for sharing

This song is the best I've heard of creation other than the BIBLE. I've made it my morning breakfast. It brings me to tears every time I listen to it. Thank you for the deepest words of Greatness. I'm person that LOVE nature and looking at What God has Created. I wish everyone could hear the words off this song. Be blessed

The best song ever 😍

This song gets to me soo much! GOD IS AWESOME...AND AS A 17 YEAR OLD GIRL, I KNOW HE IS NOT DEAD FOR OUR GENERATION!!! 🙌🏾 🙌🏾 (i did a cover of 'Wonder- Hillsong' on my channel, if y'all wanna support)

I heard this song with lyrics for the first time at a friend’s yesterday. At a point it felt like I was shot off my seat. Another Holy Spirit Inspired song. A new #1 for me

The best song ever written. Thanking God for Darlene for heeding God's voice...

Lord, I am sad that people can be so legalistic. :( I love you Jesus. Thank you for this beautiful song that expresses my heart so well.

God bless you.

When i first heard this song, i went for a book and pen and wrote out the lyrics. It is so unbelievable how the depth of God's grandeur was so beautifully captured.

This is the greatest song .... I love it I cry when ever I hear it ... no matter how many times

Eu não sei nem o que falar desse louvor! Só sei sentir a presença do Deus todo-poderoso todas as vezes que eu a escuto! Essa canção desceu do trono do Altíssimo!!

Amen. I love the song If all reveals your nature so will i

I'm totally in live for this song and how the words were chosen so carefully... and that part where he chose "8 billion" referring to the World population... woooowww.. May God keep inspiring you guys. Thanks for share this song to us... Much love from Brazil.

So glad you have a song story for this, wanted to find out the inspiration for the song.

More blessings Joel🎉

This is my favorite song! It brought me back to God and I continue to feel Him and His presence when I listen and sing to this song! The greatness and magnificence of God, is so mind blowing! The fact He cares so much for HIs creation brings so much love to my heart! The amount of detail He puts into His creation!! The eyes, the colors, the way things operate internally, and the amazing wonders of space that He performs before us! He loves us so much! I wish people could truly see! An artist creates something and puts their all into it with so much care and love. When you look at a painting from a far, you see the image, but as you get closer and closer, you can begin to make out each careful stroke of the artist. The way they moved the brush, the type of brush, pressure, and amount. When you look at any living thing, whether human, animal, or plants, the closer you get, the more you can see God's work and His every thought out movements to create us! Take a microscope and look at the skin, filled with cells that make it up. Like an artist, we see Gods work in it all! I could go on longer talking about he different ways you can see God in everything! IT make me feel truly loved and special that a creator thought that much about me and put all that detail into me! Your DNA is over 13 million lines long if you were to stretch it out! Look at that number! That, tells a tiny cell in the body to read each character, practically instantly and carries out the instructions to create you! YOU!!! When you look at a computer program maybe you just see the program, the game, or whatever it may be. To a computer coder they seen loads and loads of lines of code! The same can be applied to God, our DNA is like His signature! It's instructions put there by God containing every detail of you! From the color of your eyes, the way your lip curves when you smile, your hair, your cheeks, your nails, and everything else about you is contained inside that tiny DNA. You can't tell me God doesn't care about us when you really dive into how things are created and act! God knew every tiny thing to include inside you to keep you going. Your breathing, heart pumping, and blood running! God's an amazing and wonderful God! I want to tell the whole world about HIs greatness and the things He does will blow your mind!!! Thank you for this song!!! It's truly amazing!!!

Just heard someone’s cover of this & haaaaad to find out who wrote it! These lyrics are everything!!! My God! 🙌🏾

Obsessed with this song. I wanna know what kind of water are Hillsong people drinking that they come up with these incredible songs.

I've listened to this song so many times but only now I feel like I understand what it means. And even this understanding barely scratches the surface of God's love.

I absolutely love this song what a tune it's on my repeat list 24/7 non stop baby!👍🏽💜💋🔥♥🤗😊😗 I love you soooooooo much Joel Houston your the bomb man💖 I would love to meet you one-day I hope fingers crossed🤞🏽💃🏽🙋🏽🙆🏽 Keep up the good work son and god bless ya😍😘😗😙😚

I love this song. I love the story of this song even more. There is no number to measure God. "A child You died to save. If You gave Your life to love them so will I ....You're the One who never leaved the one (me) behind." So no matter how many times I have sinned and ask for forgiveness, no matter how many people say I am not worthy, You will never leave me. I just love the way people will pull out there Bible over one word. It does not matter, this song has touched 100 billion souls and cannot be changed.

I LOVE these song stories soo much!!! Can't wait for Shape of Your Heart!

"So will I" is by far the best🔥🔥🔥 I love you all Hillsong

This is the best lyrics ever written hands down...

God bless.

I listen to this daily before i leave the house for my daily hustles its mind blowing

amazing song 😍 much love! you're right :) if all of the things or your creations are giving you praise,so will I God ☝🙏🙌 all of us God will worship you

Truly amazing song. Definitely inspired by God.

THIS IS DEFINITELY ONE OF MY FAVOURITE SONGS IN THE WORLD!

I am performing this tomorrow night with a lady for a church concert. I simply wanted to thank you. This was a pleasure to learn and arrrange. A bit challenging but well worth it. Blessings! The guitar part is interesting but the lyrics are a master piece.

But we can never earn it or do what He did. Only surrender

I love this song so much it reminds me of how much we need to praise God cause if all creation should do then us who he say he loves the most why do we not

I'm making a essay in school about "So Will I"song wish me luckk

This is so beautiful praise God his words move mountains and moves life's from the inside out . God bless you . Amen
