The RoomsLiving, a vibrant community of passionate worship leaders and musicians from over 40 churches, is setting a new standard for worship. This collective is dedicated to breaking the boundaries of traditional church walls, bringing worship to unconventional spaces like coffee shops, barbershops, gyms, and even out on the streets. Their mission is simple yet profound: to create an accessible and authentic worship experience that meets people right where they are.
Their debut single, “Light It Up”, serves as a beacon of their mission—an electrifying call to action that encapsulates their heart for worship and their desire to ignite a transformative connection between people and God. Released under Kingdom Revival Records, the song pulls listeners into an atmosphere of raw emotion, spiritual depth, and an unrelenting hunger for God’s presence from the first note.
Produced by Grammy-winning Samuel ASH and featuring a collaboration with Grammy-nominated Andy Alemany, “Light It Up” carries a sonic depth and professional polish that heightens the already powerful message. The RoomsLiving Writing Room—comprised of Joivan Jiménez, Eric Burkowske, Danielle Woods, Jacob Brown, and Jonathan Vickers—spent two years shaping this song into a soul-stirring anthem of worship.
Inspired by Matthew 21:12, the song echoes themes of surrender, seeking God with authenticity, and breaking free from fear and shame. The chorus, “We’re crying out, we’re wide open / We need your power that saves,” is both a personal prayer and a collective plea for God’s transformative power—a sentiment that resonates deeply with anyone who has longed for an intimate encounter with the divine.
Ramona Lewis-Johnson and Jonathan Vickers deliver a stunning vocal performance that magnifies the song’s emotional intensity. Their voices rise passionately as the song builds into a memorable hook that echoes long after the track ends. The repeated line, “Light it up, let your fire fall,” becomes a communal proclamation that invites listeners to lift their voices in unity, making it easy to envision “Light It Up” as a centerpiece of live worship gatherings.
One of the standout moments in “Light It Up” comes during the bridge, where the lyrics take on a bold declaration: “No more watered-down religion / We want the real thing.” This unapologetic cry cuts through superficiality, calling for genuine worship that transcends empty rituals. The song doesn’t just stop at being a powerful anthem; it’s a rallying cry for a worship revolution, sparking a fire in the hearts of listeners to seek God with authenticity and abandon.
Light It Up is an invitation. It calls listeners to bring their whole selves—without pretense or fear—and to pursue a real encounter with God. The RoomsLiving has succeeded in creating a worship experience that is both accessible and transformative, leaving a lasting impact on anyone who listens.
