Bethel Music | 5 years ago
Bethel Music's VICTORY album was inspired by the story of King Jehoshaphat and the unlikely victory won by sending worshipers to the front lines of battle in 2 Chronicles 20:22 “As they began to sing and praise, the Lord set an ambush against the men who were invading Judah, and they were defeated.”
“Raise A Hallelujah” was written for Bethel Music CEO Joel Taylor’s son, Jaxon, who was hospitalized with life-threatening E-coli virus. Worship leaders and friends Jonathan and Melissa Helser received news one night that the Taylors didn’t think Jaxon would make it. The couple began to pray, and out of their intercession came this melody, “I raise a hallelujah, in the presence of my enemies. I raise a hallelujah, louder than the unbelief.”

Lyrics:
Verse 1
I raise a hallelujah, in the presence of my enemies
I raise a hallelujah, louder than the unbelief
I raise a hallelujah, my weapon is a melody
I raise a hallelujah, Heaven comes to fight for me
Chorus
I’m gonna sing, in the middle of the storm
Louder and louder, you’re gonna hear my praises roar
Up from the ashes, hope will arise
Death is defeated, the King is alive
Verse 2
I raise a hallelujah, with everything inside of me
I raise a hallelujah, I will watch the darkness flee
I raise a hallelujah, in the middle of the mystery
I raise a hallelujah, fear you lost your hold on me
Bridge
Sing a little louder
In the presence of my enemies
Sing a little louder
Louder than the unbelief
Sing a little louder
My weapon is a melody
Sing a little louder
Heaven comes to fight for me
Tag
I raise a hallelujah
