New Hillsong

The new Hillsong CD is out, "All of the Above" Very nice.

One of the songs is what I call (thanks to BW) a "Song of the Revolution." In it, Joel Houston and Matt Crocker do not say, "I love you Jesus" or "Jesus you are worthy."

It is a song of the revolution. Lyrics like, "It is not a human right to stare, not fight, while broken nations dream" and "Politics will not decide if we should rise" and "Your promise stands...higher then our protest lines and dollar signs...your love is all we need" and "We will be your hands and feet....we will run"

I might have a nuance or two theologically, but I can tell you that it is good to hear songs of the revolution...calling us to action. Could someone say, "Enough new songs about Jesus and more songs about what Jesus does and what he wants us to do?" Probably not, we can never write enough about Jesus but, I like the idea of more about the revolution He calls us to.

New Hillsong, worth the download cost to listen, worship and help us to think a bit. Blessings
