| | So, I decided that I would post a quick song by song look at the new Passion06 CD which is in stores everywhere in just two short weeks on April 4. I was working over at the office today and was able to obtain a copy and have not taken it out yet.
1 - Awesome is the Lord Most High - Chris Tomlin
This song is a great way to kick off the album and is a great song of praise just saying how great God is. I think the song has a really nice kick to it and really does great in helping us to enter into God's presence as we celebrate His awesomeness.
2 - Glorious - Chris Tomlin with Christy Nockels
This song is absolutely amazing and Christy Nockels shines through with her beautiful voice and the song is just wonderful.
3 - Party - Chris Tomlin
I'll be honest that I really don't like this song very much and lyrically... it's pretty much nothing. The song has a great beat though and the Party clap is very addictive...
4 - Jesus Paid It All - Kristian Stanfill
Ever since we sang this at 722, I have loved this version and was really excited to see that it made the CD. There's simply no words to describe this one.
5 - All We Need - Charlie Hall
This song is great live and I really think that all of Charlie's songs have an extra kick of energy when they are used in a large corporate worship setting.
6 - Center - Charlie Hall
This is a wonderful song on "Flying into Daybreak" and as it's done in this large group, it sounds simply amazing. The song is great and then Charlie leads everyone in "Turn Your Eyes" which is quite incredible sounding.
7 - We Are Yours - Charlie Hall
This is a song that was created from the bridge of "Song of the Redeemed" on "Flying into Daybreak." To put it frankly... I don't see any reason to why this needed to be extended into 4 and 1/2 minutes. It sounds cool and all and I love Charlie's stuff, but it's just so repetitive and really does nothing.
8 - You Never Let Go - Matt Redman
Matt's new song (and only offering on the new CD) is great. I've heard it a few times at the two Indescribable Tour dates I saw and this song is a great reminder that God is always there for us no matter what goes on in our lives. I think this song kind of sounds like a sequel of sorts to "Blessed Be Your Name," but I can't complain... it's a great song.
9 - I Stand Amazed (How Marvelous) - Chris Tomlin
This old hymn is one of my favorites and Chris' arrangement is wonderful. I really really really was hoping that this would make the CD and was excited to see that it did and hear how wonderful it sounds.
10 - Everything Glorious - David Crowder Band
This title track stands out as a great song by the Crowder guys. The quote that gets to me everytime is "You make everything glorious and I am yours... what does that make me?"
What an amazing thought about how God views us as His even when we lose our way.
11 - You are my Joy - David Crowder Band
This song is amazing live and the suspense parts of it are great. I'm getting tired, so I'll just finish fast.
12 - We Win - David Crowder Band
This song is just kind of weird live, but it really sounds great on the CD. A surprisingly winning track.
13 - Our God Reigns - EVERYBODY
This seems weird if you don't know what happened at the conference... it's a simple 4 line statement that's repeated for 6 and a half minutes. It's all right and a great way to end the CD, but it just seems that there could be a better way to do things at the end.
I'll have more things to discuss later this week, but I wanted to give a quick look at how great this CD is... until I have time to post again... BOB-O OUT! |
