“I really like to hear the music God gives to His churches,” exclaims Greg Allen, Worship Leader of Southeast Christian Church, “and to hear that music done by the church worship teams themselves. Hopefully the church at large can benefit from what all our local church worship ministries are doing. I am grateful for and supportive of Great Worship Songs that is helping facilitate that vision.”

As part of an effort to introduce resources relevant to the current worship movement, Holy is the Lord is the third release within Great Worship Songs’ live recording series, also including Made to Worship (released Oct. 9) and Let Everything That Has Breath (released May 6). Holy is the Lord is the first to highlight a specific worship community, capturing the talents and the passion of the Southeast Christian Church worship band and choir. Additional projects featuring churches and specific worship leaders are currently being scheduled for future release.

“Partnering on this new album with one of the nations largest and most influential churches- a church with its own pool of talented songwriters, arrangers and producers- is the perfect fit for Great Worship Songs. Our goal is to help resource the church with vibrant, dynamic and anointed songs for corporate worship and this new release from Southeast Christian Church fits perfectly into that plan” said Dale Mathews, President of Brentwood-Benson Music Publishing, parent company of Great Worship Songs.

Holy is the Lord has been selected by Lifeway Christian Stores for the “Lifeway Recommends” national promotion starting in July and running through the end of August. In addition, Lifeway Christian Stores, Great Worship Songs and Word Distribution will execute specific promotions within the Louisville area.
