For who you are...and HOWI update later

I have been listening to songs from the Hillsongs Mighty to Save Cd lately and one song in particular has really touched me. My favorite song is "For Who You Are." It's a simple mid-tempo song that just moves me. I'm gonna add it to my list that's for sure. The verse says:
"Standing here, in Your presence, thinking of the good things You have done.
Waiting here patiently, just to hear Your still small voice again.
Holy. Righteous. Faithful 'til the end.
Savior, Healer, Redeemer and Friend!"
Then the chorus just simply states "I will worship You for who You are, Jesus." Powerful!

There are some great young worship leaders being raised up out of that ministry. So much of the music is powerfully anointed, which in my experience is much more important than being great. It's no wonder their worship ministry is impacting the entire world in such an amazing way. I can recommend the album whole-heartedly. A lot of people seem to think that Hillsongs is just youth-type worship, but that is just one part of their ministry. They have a lot of great adult worship, along with the youth stuff. I dig just about all of it though!
Well...just wanted to throw that out there. I'm gonna post again later today on HOWI Gotta run now.
