BRENTWOOD, TN. (Sparrow Records) - ChristianMusicToday.com calls PASSION: HOW GREAT IS OUR GOD, the new album from the
Passion worship movement, "as loud and passionate as ever...easily the most thunderous
Passion release to date."
Recorded live in Nashville, Tennessee, this past January at the Passion 05 worship gathering, PASSION: HOW GREAT IS OUR GOD features music from Chris Tomlin ("Indescribable," "How Great Is Our God"), David Crowder*Band ("There Is No One Like You"), Matt Redman, Charlie Hall, Christy Nockels, and Shane & Shane. A limited edition two-disc set includes a bonus DVD with extensive music, teaching, and documentary footage.
Among the brand new songs on PASSION: HOW GREAT IS OUR GOD is "Here Is Our King" by David Crowder Band, written in response to the Asian tsunami disaster that occurred just days before the Passion 05 event. Others include "All Over The World" by Matt Redman (inspired by Isaiah 26:8 and co-written with Martin Smith of Delirious?) and "Marvelous Light" by Charlie Hall, inspired by 1 Peter 2:9-11.
The ChristianMusicToday.com review concludes:
"Though PASSION: HOW GREAT IS OUR GOD is a definite keepsake for those who attended the conference, it should also be a no-brainer for fans of modern worship or the Passion movement as a whole. This is easily the loudest, most rocking disc in the series so far, and it's a great combination of new ("Indescribable"), recent ("Majesty"), and timeless ("It Is Well") worship classics. In a landscape where a lot of "worship" music has become formulaic, humdrum, and unbearably derivative, it's inspiring to hear the Passion gang going at it as passionately as when they first got started almost ten years ago."
