Arriving - Chris Tomlin
Music Reviews

Click to View
Chris Tomlin - a native Texan with the unique ability to craft a worship song larger than the state itself, has delivered songs that have swept the globe including , "We Fall Down", "Forever", and "The Wonderful Cross". After contributions to multiple Passion recordings with sales over 1 million units, and the success of his critically acclaimed album, Not To Us, Chris Tomlin returns with Arriving - a collection of songs embracing the theme in Isaiah 40:3-5..."In the desert prepare the way for the Lord; make straight in the wilderness a highway for our God..." The all new recording captures a fresh stripped down acoustic rock style paired with soaring melodies grounded in lyrics focused on the richness and glory of our Creator.

Review from an EXW Friend

This is an awesome CD! Our youth group went to Student Life Camp this summer and Chris Tomlin was the Worship Leader. He introduced alot of the songs on this CD to us throughout the week. This is a very moving CD. The songs help put me in the right frame of mind to worship God and experience Him in a refreshing way. There is one particular song "Unfailing Love" that moves me everytime I listen to it. It says "And everything You hold in Your hand, still you make time for me, I can't understand! Praise You God of earth and sky How beautiful is Your unfailing love, unfailing love. You never change, God, You remain the Holy One and my unfailing love, unfailing love!" WOW! No one should be disappointed with this CD. Everytime I listen to it, God speaks to me, and I am able to see Him and hear Him in the sweetest way!

    Great Music, okay lyrics
    I have Chris Tomlin's "Arriving" in my car CD changer where it has been getting quite a bit of play in recent weeks... The musical quality is great- from the awe-inspiring majesty of "Indescribable," or down-on-your knees worshipful praise of "Holy i...more
