Live Worship From Chris Tomlin
Posted April 11, 2024
By BPence,
Released just ahead of his eighth annual “Good Friday Nashville” concert at the Bridgestone Arena, Chris Tomlin, a long-time favorite of mine, released Live from Good Friday. The project includes songs from the previous gatherings, along with some new ones. Included are some of his best loved songs such as the medley “Good Good Father/Great Are You Lord”, “How Great Is Our God”, “Our God”, “Is He Worthy”, “At the Cross (Love Ran Red)”, and “Whom Shall I Fear (God of Angel Armies)”, which features vocals from George Mhondera, one of Tomlin’s background singers. Also included are three new songs from his 2023 album Always – “Holy Forever” with co-writers Brian Johnson and Jenn Johnson, “Precious Love” and the title song. The project ends with the 1873 hymn “It is Well”, written by Horatio G. Spafford.
This is a wonderful addition to Tomlin’s catalog. My only complaint would be that the production had the crowd’s singing mixed too high. This is appropriate on some songs such as “Is He Worthy? and the closing “It is Well”, but overall, I would have liked Tomlin’s vocals to be more up front in the mix.
