Kory Miller might be an unfamiliar name to most, but he's a familiar face to people that follow the worship music landscape. Miller is known for leading the many anthems coming out of Red Rocks Church from the ensemble, Red Rocks Worship. After countless projects with Red Rocks, Kory Miller releases his debut album, titled All To Bless You, and it just doesn't miss.

I can tell instantly the impact of these songs is bigger than for just playing on the radio. They are made for beautiful intimate moments of worship to the Father. It's an offering, devotion and a collection of songs to the God of the universe, birthed from a place of gratitude. What I love about this album is the intimacy that can be found while listening to each moment. All To Bless You is 8 songs, with 5 spontaneous tracks, that flow with ease. "Glory Belongs," "Come and Get Your Glory," and "To the One We Love (Spontaneous)" make a great three-track opener by threading the concept of His renown, authority and ultimate power. Isn't that the sole reason we worship? It's not to gratify ourselves, but to bless the Father in all He is with everything we have.

"Always Amen" has a beautiful bridge that hits profoundly with its chords, "Yours is the Kingdom / The Glory / The Power / Always Amen / The Kingdom / The Glory / The Power / Are Yours." The title track, "All To Bless You," showcases the whole heart of the project directing every ounce of attention to the Lord, "I will bring a throne for the lover of my soul / I will bring you praise every moment every day." This is one of my favorite tracks on the album.

"The Cloud (Spontaneous)," into "Very Soon," followed by "The Earth Belongs to You (Spontaneous)" are 3 incredible parts of the album singing about the return of Jesus. The energy surrounding this section can't be denied; it's powerful. "Beautiful Jesus" is my favorite track on the entire album. A sense of joy and wonder fill my heart when I listen to this song, "There's fire in Your eyes / And I can't look away / I'm taken by the glory / Shining from Your face / You're beautiful Jesus/ Beautiful / And I can't help but praise You in Your majesty / No I can't help but crown You now as King of kings / You're beautiful Jesus / Beautiful."

The album ends with "Sound Mind," which was the lead single for the album. The upbeat song emphasizes a spirit of hope and joy no matter what circumstance we face. As we focus on the Lord, we embrace a right mindset that creates a confidence within us, in Him. "Whatever is true and lovely / Whatever is pure and holy / I fix my thoughts upon it / Fix my thoughts on You," sings the first verse. The chorus says, "I've got a spirit of praise for the heaviness / I've got a song to raise in the midst of it / I've got a sound mind / I've got a sound mind.

All To Bless You offers a unique worship experience different from most of the music in today's worship landscape; these are selfless, glorious songs of praise to our creator. I'm excited to see where Kory Miller goes with music for years to come. If you love corporate worship, this is an album worth listening to.
