NASHVILLE, TENN. (SEPTEMBER 26, 2025) Worship leader and songwriter, Alexander Pappas (founding frontman of Hillsong Young & Free),bridges personal devotion and congregational praise with his new song, "Everything With Breath," which is available now through Integrity Music.

 

"The inspiration behind 'Everything With Breath' is the power of praise," shares Alexander Pappas. "From Acts 16 to Psalm 150, Scripture reminds us that praise shakes foundations, reorders love, and is the most important thing we can do with our time, our breath, and our lives.”

 

This is the first single on his upcoming project, which will mark a shift from a season of releasing 'Monday' music to 'Sunday' music -- from the everyday worship songs to Pappas' roots in congregational worship. Overall, the project is complete, featuring songs for the church that convey a clear message of Jesus' hope and encouragement in the believer’s walk with Him.

 

As a founding member of the 2x GRAMMY-nominated band Hillsong Young & Free, Pappas has a rich background in writing songs for congregational settings, such as "Alive," "Wake," "Real Love," and "Echo" (Elevation Worship). He is passionate about writing songs that are honest and Spirit-led, that draw people to the heart of God, serve the church in worship, and boldly proclaim the Gospel.

 

“My prayer is that this new song carries more than a melody or good energy—that it carries a revelation. Praise isn’t meant to stay locked inside; it’s meant to be lived out. Breakthrough is often waiting just beyond our comfort zone, and joy is always waiting on the other side of praise.”
