the ultimate worship song

so, in listening to chris tomlin's latest release, see the morning, I stumbled upon something that amazed me.

in one song, he managed to squeeze in every cliche from contemporary worship over the past decade. in fact, i believe he tried to squeeze them all into the song's title. this might perhaps be the ultimate worship song:

"Awesome Is The Lord Most High"

Great are You, Lord, Mighty in strength
You are faithful, as You will ever be
We will praise You all of our days
For Your glory, we offer everything

Raise your hands, all you nations
Shout to God all creation
How awesome is the Lord Most High

Where You send us, God we will go
You're the answer, we want the world to know
We will trust You when You call our name
Where You lead us, we'll follow all the way

Raise your hands, all you nations
Shout to God all creation
How awesome is the Lord Most High

We will praise You together
For now and forever
How awesome is the Lord Most High

Hallelujah, Hallelujah
How awesome is the Lord Most High
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
How awesome is the Lord Most High

Raise your hands, all you nations
Shout to God all creation
How awesome is the Lord Most High

We will praise You together
For now and forever
How awesome is the Lord Most High



how's this for a new wahba song title:
"I have come to worship you are mighty is our god of wonders".

Brutal my friend, wouldn't it have been a much better song had he only ended it with A-A-men?
