'In This Place' TAYA Of Hillsong UNITED Acoustic Performance - Christian Music Videos

Check out this acoustic performance by TAYA of Hillsong UNITED of her song ‘In This Place.’

“Here now to You I’m paying attention, You know I’m needing a vision of what I cannot see   
Find me and break my habit of hiding and may Your promise define me in my wandering  
Welcome, Spirit of God, I know that You love me though I am lost, give me the eyes of faith
In darkness or brilliance and I will say, surely You are in this place, surely You are in this place”

What a beautiful and moving song, and TAYA’s voice is just incredible. The theme of God’s faithfulness shows up throughout ‘In This Place,’ and the lyrics of the song recognizes and values the presence of God. The song serves as a simple reminder that the Lord is with us even in the unknown and the chaos.

TAYA talks about the song and shares what part of scripture inspired it.

“The song was based on Genesis 28, which is the story of Jacob,” she says. “He was running away from his family; he was running away from the choices that he had made and decisions that he had kind of brought on himself. And he went to sleep in the desert, he put a rock under his head, and he had this dream.”

She continued: “It was essentially God showing up in his dream to him. And he saw angels ascending and descending from heaven in that place. And he woke up. I love that he actually had reverence and awe and was a bit frightened, and he said, ‘Surely, you were in this place, God, and I didn’t even know it.’”

Sometimes we can be like Jacob and not see that God is with us in the trials and in the mundane of life. Let us pray that the Lord would help us to pay more attention to see that He is truly with us; He is very much in this place.
