What You Need To Know:
CRC Music is relatively new, with one previously released full-length album, Explosion. Greater Than All: Part 1, their sophomore release, is an uplifting, energetic praise and worship EP.
What It Sounds Like:
On first listen, Greater Than All has a similar sound to somethign like Planetshakers. Electric guitar and drum driven praise kick off the album on "You Are Good" and "Unto Forever." This is followed up with the electronic sound of "Praise on My Lips," while the final three songs move from high energy praise music to a more acoustic driven worship section.
Spiritual/Lyrical Highlights:
Worship music never makes us wonder whether or not the music is completely directed to God, and none of the songs on this EP can be misconstrued or taken out of context - The focus is the Father. "I'm Letting Go" gives a powerful message of surrender, and the chorus simply states, "I'm letting go/All my heart and soul/I surrender all/That you would be the Lord of all/I lose control/Into your arms I fall/I surrender all/That you would be the Lord of all." The start of our Christian walk does not get any simpler than that, and as we continue to die daily to ourselves, this is a prayer we can all sing out.
Best Song On The Record:
"Oh How I Love You" is a beautiful song of worship, and is an honest prayer to God. It reflects on the attributes of the Father and is a declaration of devotion to the One who created heaven and earth.
For Fans Of:
Planetshakers, Elevation Worship, Worship Central
Final Word:
CRC Music has a powerful ministry, and Greater Than All: Part 1 should find itself in your regular rotation. Use the first half of the EP to encourage you and the second half as part of your devotion time. There is praise to get you to dance, and worship to bring you to your knees.
