Hillsong Live

July 26, 2011

Top tracks: “With Us,” “Unending Love,” “God Is Able”

Modern worship is practically synonymous Hillsong. While God Is Able is basically the same formula they’ve used for the past two decades, the highly accessible and easily sing-able songs are still perfectly crafted for a corporate setting. On this live recording, it’s almost possible to hear the voices singing upward, past raised hands and through the ceiling. Without question, this is music designed to inspire Christians to express faith through contemplation.
