King of Israel - About the Song
King of Israel was inspired by a sermon I heard by Ray Hughes at my church. Ray Hughes is a great music historian. I was captivated and fascinated by his story, about Handel, and the history behind Handel, and the Messiah Chorus.
As a writer, I like to honor the great writers of old, and tap into what was in their
hearts at the time. With so much paganism in Christmas, I wanted to connect with something of value, that would Honor God. When you listen to the Hallelujah Chorus, it is really deep.
Stories about Handel even say He was praying, or he was weeping, or he was staring into eternity.
He was definitely a deep writer for his day. I wanted to write a song about Jesus Birth and tie it in somehow with Handel's Messiah.
What I love about most Hymns or older worship songs is that they focus on the righteousness of Christ in us. The Messiah Chorus is not short of themes of Salvation and righteousness.
The Messiah Chorus is a timeless song about the Lord's salvation for us, the very gospel message and that He will Reign Forever.
I wanted to bring in those same elements highlighting Salvation and Righteousness.
King of Israel is not just meant for Christmas time which is why we are including it in our album. The message is that Jesus came so we might become His righteousness.
King of Israel
Bring Your Gifts to the Lord for this day Messiah came.
Righteousness is being restored. Let the Angels rejoice and sing
rejoice and sing
Hallelujah ah to the King to the King
Hallelujah ah to the King the King of Israel
Glory Shines within the skies Let Angelic hosts proclaim
Join the triumph of the king Salvations victory
Salvations victory
Hallelujah ah to the King to the King
Hallelujah ah to the King the King of Israel to the King
And He Shall Reign Forever and ever
And He Shall Reign Forever and ever
And He Shall Reign Forever and ever
And He Shall Reign Forever and ever
Hallelujah ah to the King to the King

Praise Your Name Forever - About the Song
About the Song
Praise Your Name Forever with Elisha Chernoff
Over the last year, I have been on a incredible journey of many ups and downs,
incredible opportunities as well as incredible disappointments. I have formed
incredible new relationships that have changed my life.
What I have learned in the midst of everything is God is always there.
God is there in our successes and our failures, in our triumphs and there when we fall.
In our hurts, and our joy. He is always there.
Over the last year, in my home group where I go to church, there were quite a few families
that were facing some of life's challenges. We saw several families face losing their home,
as well as a precious Mom lose her son, and a friend who went in the hospital for tumors.
My wife and I had our own financial challenges.
In the midst of everything, God was always there.
At my church, I heard one of our teachers preach on Joseph. He preached that God wasn't so
concerned about Joseph's destination as he was that God wanted Joseph to know that
He was always there.
I found this to be so true. God's way more concerned about our hearts, knowing him and that he is always there versus the destiny He has for us.
The destiny he has for us is great. God says he has a plan for us to prosper us not to harm us, which is awesome! But the destiny He has for our hearts is even greater. God wants us to go deeper.
That's what this new song is about. We didn't write it to be radio hit or even the best song we could ever write. We wrote it because it tells a real story and it's about real life.
What I realized is that also no matter what we go through, there are major blessings that God gives us everyday. When I see my son with a smile on his face, or a hug from my wife, relationships at my church, or my health. There is so much we have to be thankful for.
The second verse touches on this hope.
We have an acoustic video we will be releasing Spring or Summer of 2015.
Through the storms and raging seas
You are always there for me
Through the trials and the pain.
I will bless your Name
I will praise your name forever
In your presence I am undone
I will praise your name forever
Oh God let heaven come
Through the Blessings that never change
Your favor rests on me
Through the triumphs that come my way
I will bless your name
I will praise your name forever
In your presence I am undone
I will praise your name forever
Oh God let heaven come
Let Your Glory Let Your power come. Yahweh
Let Your Glory Let Your power come. Yahweh
Let Your Glory Let your power
Let Your Glory Let your power come Yahweh Yahweh
I will praise your name forever
In your presence I am undone
I will praise your name forever
Oh God let heaven come

a multi-artist, compilation project that debuts two of the band’s
songs, "King of the Universe" and "Passover Lamb." The band is also
slated to release a full-length project in 2013.
With this highly-anticipated, 12-song effort, which released on August 7, 2012 from City of Peace Media/Sony Provident, House of Peace partnered with Dove Award winning producer Ed Cash and the project includes an array of other outstanding artists, who all have a common goal to share God’s heart for Israel.

"House of Peace has a heart for Israel, as well as the body of Christ to encourage Christians to reach the lost," said House of Peace band member, David Liscum. "Ultimately, we desire to exalt God through our music and ministry."
Breathecast reviewer Neshell Hogan said, " ‘King of the Universe,’ performed by worship artist House of Peace, symbolizes the beauty, majesty, and divine nature of God. This track has very powerful lyrics that are straight to the point and paint a vivid picture of worship for the listener. It takes us on a journey of how the singer finds God's presence in everything from the oceans to the rain and is awed by His greatness. Once you really get a grasp on the lyrics as a whole, it is a very humbling experience and reminder of God's wonder."

King of the Universe - Song - Lyrics
King of the Universe - House of Peace
I look up in the sky and see Your everlasting Beauty
I walk along the shores and see waves of mercy waves of mercy
I sit in the rain and feel Your presence and Your truth revealed
Your creation longs for Your return, Your return
You bring forth the bread You bring forth the wine
Everything you touch is holy and divine
King of the Universe blessed are You blessed are You
King of the Universe blessed are You blessed are You
King of the Universe blessed are You blessed are You
blessed are You blessed are You God
I sit in the cool of night, I listen for Your voice so quiet
I long to wait for Your word, for Your word
I sit on the sand and hear the ocean roar as you draw near
Your creation longs for Your return, Your return
You are my King my King
You are my King my King
You are my Love You are my Love
