If anyone has shaped the form and style of current Christian worship, it has been Chris Tomlin. I would say that a good 50% or more of our current songs that we sing have a Chris Tomlin influence if not 100% contribution on his part.
Chris' songs have come up through the ages (from those who have known him through youth years now into adult years) and you can certainly see the maturity in his writing and styles now.
I find that Chris' songs (while incredibly high for the average congregation!) call for the worshiper to engage with the heart of God in worship. They are passionate and thoughtful expressions about our God.
How Great Is Our God ( I heard this song before it was released in 2004 and I knew immediately that it was going to be a hit--simple and beautiful. This one will be around for ages)
Amazing Grace (My Chains Are Gone)
Enough
We Fall Down
Made To Worship
The Wonderful Cross
