Artist: Hillsong Young and Free 

Album: This Is Living EP [2015] 

 My cousin's son is in the band. He is the one wearing the blue/black sweater. This Is Living has a Dance Pop rhythm with 4/4 time signature. Here it is in E. I really like this one. Trying to get used to the rap part! :-) What do you think?

With the introduction, play the A in the right hand, E-A-C#. Sometimes play it with C#-E-B.
Play the B in the r.h., D-F#-B and C#m with E-G#-B. Lastly, for F#m7 in the right hand you will want to play C#-F#-B.

I think it's a real cool song, very upbeat! Listen to it on YouTube:
