About the Artist: Chris Tomlin
Chris Tomlin has shaped modern worship music for two decades, writing songs that balance theological depth with immediate singability. His work appears in churches across denominations, from rural congregations to large worship centers, making him one of the most performed contemporary Christian songwriters in North America.
Why we love this
Keveren's arrangement takes a beloved contemporary hymn and weaves it with "Holy, Holy, Holy," creating a bridge between traditional and modern worship language that feels inevitable once you hear it. The orchestration supports without overwhelming, letting the choir's voices remain central while adding textural interest that elevates a three-minute piece into a memorable moment.
What to expect
The piece unfolds with genuine reverence, neither trendy nor nostalgic but genuinely devotional in its affect. You'll hear both the earnestness of modern worship and the grounded dignity of the traditional hymn working in concert, creating something that feels both fresh and timeless.
Who it's for
Worship directors seeking repertoire that honors congregational hymnody while embracing contemporary songwriting will find this pairing especially useful. It works for choirs comfortable with a mix of straight ahead singing and moments requiring blend with orchestral accompaniment.
How to get the most out of it
- Balance the hymn tune against the contemporary melody in measures where they overlap; the traditional text should anchor the harmonic foundation while the newer material floats above it.
- Keep the tempo steady across the entire arc. The emotional arc depends on the listener feeling they're moving through a unified statement, not jumping between two separate pieces.
- Let the orchestra breathe in the spaces between choral phrases, especially in the opening. This arrangement gains power from the interplay between ensemble and instrumental colors rather than constant density.
How to use it
This fits naturally into a worship service or sacred concert where you're programming both contemporary and hymn-based repertoire. Consider opening a program with this piece to signal that traditional and modern approaches to faith are equally valued, or place it as a statement closer that synthesizes both musical languages.
