"Thank you SO MUCH! I COULD NEVER THANK YOU ENOUGH! LOVE YOU SO MUCH! #JBCHANCEHOLY."

Justin Bieber and Chance the Rapper Take Fans to Church in 'Holy' Music Video Following the success of his last studio album, Changes, which bowed at No. 1 on the U.S. charts in February, Bieber collaborated with Ariana Grande on the quarantine-themed single "Stuck with U," released in May. Earlier this month, Bieber celebrated two years of marriage with wife Hailey Baldwin, 23. A source previously told PEOPLE that the time in isolation amid the coronavirus pandemic has been a much-needed opportunity for them to focus on each other and their relationship. "They are, of course, aware that it's a very rough year for many people," the source said. "But for them, the lockdown has been kind of a blessing. They have spent months of quality time together. They were both very busy with work before COVID hit. The lockdown forced them to focus on their marriage." "They feel very lucky to spend this much time together," the source added.
