Anticipation continues to build for the May 26 release of Hillsong United's Empires with the release of a lyric video and a story behind the song feature for the track "Touch the Sky."

"Empires is the story of two worlds," explains United leader Joel Houston. "We wanted to create songs that first seek to listen, then speak the good news of Jesus and His grace into the dichotomy, tension and hopeful-collision of this broken and fragile world we see here and now, and the unshakeable and mysterious reality of the Kingdom we can't see. Our desire has been to simply create the most honest project we could."

The album is currently available for preorder with the bonus of an instant download of "Touch the Sky."

You can watch the lyric video and behind the song video below.
