The worship album captures an evening of amazing praise with brand new songs from the church's top worship writers. It's the most anticipated worship release of the year. In March 2008, thousands of worshippers gathered to fill the Acer Arena in Sydney as Hillsong Church recorded their latest live worship album. We come together and we say, 'This is who we are, God. We need You, we love You, and we're going to give everything to You'. It's actually about the church coming together and singing with One Voice, One Passion, One Heart, giving all our praise to God.' A number of new songwriters, worship leaders and musicians joined Reuben Morgan, Joel Houston, Darlene Zschech and Marty Sampson on the platform, capturing the sound of a new generation, and entering into a new season of worship and song.

The Finest Collection of Worship Music I've yet found...
I went to Soul Survivor this summer and, as is the cliche, was blown away by the worship music. Of course, the difficulty with Soul Survivor music is finding a CD with all the best worship songs on it, which is a good CD in its own right.And this is the wonderful thing with this CD - it has THE song of Soul Survivor 2008: Your Name High, which I can remember the audience humming like a memetic mantra & yet somehow has yet to get nauseating. There are also other amazing songs that really grow on you, such as the title track and songs such as Run & Stronger, which are profoundly powerful & are on a par with anything that bands such as Kings of Leon or Coldplay have done lately...Of course, not all of it is perfect, and the CD suffers from two major weaknesses. The first is that the good songs up to track 10, rather eclipse the songs later on the CD, which become slightly run-of-the-mill.The second weakness is not the fault of Hillsong, but is related to the whole 'Guglielmucci' scandal that broke at the end of August 2008. Track 8 (Healer) is an awesome track, but is marred by its writer having lied about his having cancer. It is almost as if every single note of its powerful resonance became poison in the ear overnight. Of course, it is forgivable, but that doesn't mean the song is absolved of its jarred, twisted nature.However, these weaknesses are only 1) because the first few tracks are SO good and 2) because of track 8, which is still a very moving song (even if for false motives). Furthermore, in the words of Francis Bacon "There is nothing that is beautiful that does not have an aspect of ugliness about its proportion". As with the church, the beauty of these songs is made somehow more manifest by the fact that humans are flawed, rather than less. Maybe this is why Hillsong is so appealing - it is raw, human & soulful and I'm positive that its influence in Christianity can only be a good thing, in spite of supposed shortcomings...
