Solid Favorites, Surprising Additions

WOW worship albums are always a highlight of the Christian music year, and the most recent edition, WOW Worship Lime, is no different. A compilation of the best worship songs, Wow carefully picked some of the favorites from the past few years and put them into a two disc set that proclaims the heartbeat of Christian music - love, grace, and mercy through Jesus Christ.
Starting off with well-known musical giants such as "Our God", "10,000 Reasons", "Your Great Name", and "Oceans", the record is already solid within the opening tracks.
However, the gems in this album are found in the remakes of popular worship tunes by some of the greats in the business. Tenth Avenue North's "Christ Is Risen", Building 429's "White Flag", for King & Country's "From The Inside Out", and Francesca Battistelli's "Holy Spirit" are beautiful tracks, adding each artist's own spin to songs that are already incredible.
One of my favorite moments in this record comes through in Hillsong Young & Free's version of the Hillsong classic, "The Stand", proving that you can always find a new and fresh perspective even in the best of songs.
Personally, I loved this mixture of old favorites and new sounds all rolled into one. WOW Worship Lime is one of the best albums in the series thus far, showcasing powerful worship songs and a great blend of slow and fast tracks. It's an honor to be included on this record, and all of the artists involved should be proud of the work they've put into these songs. They truly are the best of the best. If you don't already own these songs, go get them -- I'm sure they'll bless your heart and leave you in an attitude of worship!
