Chris Tomlin - Hello Love

Chris Tomlin - Hello Love

I am not sure if Chris Tomlin is a coffee drinker but I am, too much I think sometimes. I like the taste of coffee, I drink it in the morning to start my day and have no problem having a cup right before bed without.. Sorry.. this isn’t about coffee… it’s about Chris Tomlin.

OK, let me go back to coffee for just a moment. I was going to take Chris Tomlin to the gym but I was really looking forward to hearing what was new, so I opted for Saturday morning coffee with him. I am really glad I did not put this off until later in the day. (the editor is making me put this in: I did not actually have coffee WITH Chris Tomlin, I did have coffee though and a Chris Tomlin CD. I think its just splitting hairs but whatever)

Not stopping for a moment after his 3rd Dove Award for Male Vocalist of the Year, his 2006 RIAA Gold-certified record “See The Morning” and touring on Passion’s first world tour, Chris Tomlin releases his 5th studio album “Hello Love” on Sept 2nd.

Chris Tomlin knows how to create songs, not just songs you can enjoy, songs that you can sing with all your heart as if you wrote them yourself. With “Hello Love” Tomlin has once again shown he truly understands what it is to worship and has put together another outstanding collection of songs. Tomlin puts to words and music true feelings and helps bring our focus to the greatest love of all, His everlasting love.

“Worship is a massive word with a very broad scope, but in the end, it is very simple. It is love! It’s our response in love to our great God who loved us first.” - Chris Tomlin

Through songs like “Jesus Messiah”, “Sing, Sing, Sing” and “God Of This City” we are reintroduced to our Savior and reminded of His love, His power and His glory. While songs like “I Will Rise”, “With Me”, and “All The Way My Savior Leads Me” are very personal tracks that empower you with the strength to move forward knowing that He is by your side.

The first single released from the “Hello Love” CD, “Jesus Messiah” has already started a buzz as the most added multi-format song in Christian radio history and No. 1 on the iTunes Christian Charts. In listening to the rest of the CD I can tell you first hand that you can expect more great things to come.

As Jon Rivers, music director KLOVE Radio Network puts it so well, “Chris seems unable to pen a bad or even mediocre song. It is always simply spectacular.”

I am sure he is quite honored with the awards and well deserved accolades but his driving force is much more important than that.

“With each new record, I continue to strive to create songs that will help people voice their worship to God.” - Chris Tomlin

With “Hello Love” he does what he has set out to accomplish. As for the great reviews and all, I can only guess that it is just creamer in the coffee.

Christopher is a Christian, husband, graphic designer, web programmer, photographer, ninja, poet, cat whisperer (though I think my own cats don't speak English). I tend to write as it comes out so I keep the editor quite busy. I have the grammar skills of a Nerf football but it makes sense if you read it over a few times.
