More about this title
About the Composer: Tommy Walker
Tommy Walker is a worship leader and songwriter whose compositions have become staples in contemporary Christian music settings. His work balances accessible melodic writing with genuine theological depth, making his songs resonate across congregational and concert contexts alike.
Why we love this
Heather Sorenson's arrangement captures the intimate confession at the heart of this song without sacrificing choral impact. The rhythm section writing creates space for the vocal lines to shine while maintaining the contemporary energy that makes this piece feel alive in performance.
What to expect
The piece unfolds as a personal declaration wrapped in contemporary harmonic language. Listeners encounter a song that feels both intimate and triumphant, grounded in sincere devotion rather than surface-level praise.
Who it's for
This arrangement serves choirs seeking contemporary sacred repertoire that feels genuine rather than formulaic. It works equally well for worship settings prioritizing congregational connection and concert programs looking to include accessible, meaningful modern sacred music.
How to get the most out of it
- Shape the phrase "Only a God like You" with slight rubato in early verses; let the singers breathe the theology of the text rather than rushing through it.
- Balance the rhythm section to support without overpowering the choir. The accompaniment should feel like a conversation, not a backdrop.
- Explore dynamic contrast between the confessional moments and the fuller ensemble passages to reveal the personal nature of the lyric even in larger sound.
- Consider the 4-minute duration as an opportunity for a measured, intentional arc. Resist the urge to drive tempo; let conviction do the work.
How to use it
Position this in a concert where it can stand alone as a moment of reflection, or pair it with other contemporary sacred works to create a thematic arc around faith and trust. The four-minute length makes it flexible for both liturgical settings and secular concert contexts seeking spiritual repertoire.
