“Every Breath a Praise” – Alexander Pappas’ New Anthem Sparks a Fresh Wave of Worship
With his latest release, “Everything With Breath,” worship leader and songwriter Alexander Pappas—founding frontman of Hillsong Young & Free—returns to the heart of congregational praise. Available now through Integrity Music, the song bridges personal devotion and communal worship in a way that feels both timeless and urgent. Drawing inspiration from Acts 16 and Psalm 150, Pappas highlights the transformative power of praise—how it shakes foundations, reorders our loves, and becomes the most important thing we can do with our time, breath, and lives. This is more than just a new single; it marks the first glimpse into Pappas’ upcoming project, signaling a shift from his “Monday” everyday worship music back to his “Sunday” roots in writing songs that unite believers around the hope of Jesus.
As one of the creative forces behind Hillsong Young & Free classics like “Alive,” “Wake,” and “Real Love,” Pappas brings a proven gift for crafting Spirit-led songs that draw people closer to the heart of God. With “Everything With Breath,” he invites worshippers not only to sing but to embody praise as a lifestyle—breaking past comfort zones and discovering joy on the other side of worship. “My prayer is that this new song carries more than a melody or good energy—that it carries a revelation,” he shares. True to his passion, Pappas offers a fresh anthem for the Church that is honest, bold, and full of encouragement for believers walking with Christ today.
