Use the HtmlText control, and make its onselect use the Launch() function

So that you get the pointer cursor, I would highly recommend using a button for this. You can make the fill transparent and give it an underline if you want it to look like a normal link.

Then in the button's OnSelect you would put the following:
Launch("https://google.com")

Yes if you are goign to use this app mostly in browser, where the mouse will be used, a button as @charlessexton suggested would provided added fucntionality of changing your cursor when mousedover. if you want this, but also dont want a buttons appearance, just set the buttons fill to transparent, and you get best of both

Add a "Label" control to your PowerApps screen.
Set the "Text" property of the label to the text you want to use as the hyperlink (e.g. "Click here to visit our website").
Select the label and go to the "Action" tab in the right-hand pane.
In the "OnSelect" property, add the following formula: Launch("https://www.example.com")
Replace "https://www.example.com" with the URL you want to link to.
Save and run your app. When the user clicks on the label, it will open the specified URL in the default web browser.
