Yay God!:
I found a Church that does covers of some Hillsong material. It brings church to life for me and I love it! This is a good album that lets me put a little bit of worship into my every day.
Excellent Worship Album!:
I'm so glad Hillsong United recorded a studio album and this album is such a perfect combination of upbeat and reflective songs, they are great in any format. Brooke Fraser's vocals on "Hosanna" and "Lead Me To The Cross" are extremely worshipful and captivating at the same time and "Solution", "Point of Difference" and "Saviour King" just round out an excellent worship album!
Excellent, just not your typical Hillsong United:
I've had this album for about 6 months and finally decided to write a review. It has grown on me over time, and it is truly an excellent album in its own right, but it is quite different (as a studio album) compared to all the rest. The production values are excellent, but you don't get the same "big praising church" atmosphere; instead, you feel a closer connection to the band itself. This can be a good thing when you have a band that is so talented in writing real, substantive lyrics that praise the Lord... more info
Hillsong United does it again!:
I've heard that this album is less than satisfying because it is not a live recording. All I can say to that is it's far from the truth. The Hillsong United don't lose their touch and they pull it off again...creating an authentic and brilliant set of worship anthems that are already being sung around the globe. Hosanna, Devotion, Point of Difference, and Saviour King are at the top of my list.
