More about this title
About the Artist: Chris Tomlin
Chris Tomlin is a prolific worship songwriter and recording artist whose compositions have become staples in churches worldwide. His gift for crafting theologically grounded melodies that combine accessibility with musical sophistication has made him one of the most performed contemporary Christian musicians in congregational settings.
Tomlin's arrangements for choir and ensemble draw from his deep understanding of how worship music functions in real worship spaces. His collaborations with artists like Anthony Brown and Nate Moore bring multiple musical perspectives into single compositions, creating layered arrangements that serve both traditional and contemporary worship communities.
Why we love this
The urban gospel harmonies and syncopations in the refrain give your singers something genuinely fun to sink their teeth into while the verses stay grounded in singable melody. Arrangers who nail this balance (letting your ensemble feel the contemporary radio energy without sacrificing musicality) deserve a spot in your rotation.
What to expect
The piece radiates affirmation and joy, balancing earnest spiritual conviction with contemporary groove. Its harmonic language feels immediate and accessible without sacrificing sophistication, creating the kind of musical experience that stays with listeners long after the final chord.
Who it's for
Worship directors and choir leaders in contemporary Christian settings who want repertoire that bridges traditional choral technique with modern production sensibilities. This works equally well for volunteer church choirs seeking energetic seasonal material and for directed ensembles wanting a confidence builder that audiences recognize.
How to get the most out of it
- Highlight the syncopated rhythms in the refrain by having your singers internalize the groove before adding text. Consider conducting in a way that lets them feel the underlying pulse rather than fight it.
- Balance the urban gospel harmonies so the lead line projects clearly over the supporting voices. This arrangement depends on that clarity to land emotionally.
- Use the recorded accompaniment to establish tempo and feel for your ensemble, especially if your rehearsal space lacks consistent access to a capable accompanist.
How to use it
Slot this into spring or fall services where you want a contemporary worship statement that showcases your ensemble's range. The recognizable source material and confident orchestration make it an excellent closer on a mixed concert program or the anchor piece in a contemporary worship service.
