Nashville, Tenn. (February 10, 2017) — RIAA-platinum artists Hillsong UNITED released today a new song and music video, “Heaven Knows,” their contribution to “THE SHACK: MUSIC FROM AND INSPIRED BY THE ORIGINAL MOTION PICTURE.”  The song, which appears in the film “The Shack,” is now available for streaming and purchase at all DSPs. A companion video for the song is here. “THE SHACK: MUSIC FROM AND INSPIRED BY THE ORIGINAL MOTION PICTURE” is set for release on February 24th.



“It was such a crazy experience being involved with this whole project,” said Joel Houston of Hillsong UNITED. “The book has had phenomenal success around the world, and the production level and actors in the movie is pretty exciting! We had the opportunity to watch a screening of it, and it is inspiring that such a high end movie would be made. It was an honour to write a song for the soundtrack, something we have actually had little experience in. We hope, as with everything we do, that people take away a portion of the greater message about Jesus!”
