Kansas City, MO (August 23, 2013) — Forerunner Music’s latest project, Onething Live: You Satisfy My Soul, debuted this week in the Top Ten on Soundscan’s Praise and Worship chart. The album released August 13 and was recorded at the International House of Prayer annual Onething young adult conference in Kansas City, MO and features nine of its worship leaders. The album is available on iTunes and other digital service providers and is being distributed to physical and online retail outlets via New Day Christian Distributors.

One of many conferences the International House of Prayer in Kansas City (IHOPKC) hosts annually, Onething is its premier event and it draws around 25,000 young people from all over the world. Onething Live: You Satisfy My Soul was recorded at last year’s conference in December and highlights some of the most memorable worship songs. Worship leader Matt Gilman, featured on the record, shares, “I Iove the focused nature of this album and that it represents so well why we do what we do here at the house of prayer, because Jesus is worthy of unceasing adoration.”

Although the 10-song project reflects the musical leanings of multiple worship leaders, its theme is decidedly singular; the revelation of the excellence of Jesus is the sustaining power of our hearts. He is the One who satisfies our souls.

Ryan Kondo’s opening track, “Like a Lion,” is a joyful declaration that our hope is in Jesus, the Lion of the tribe of Judah, who dwells within each believer, and a prayer that He would send the fire of revival. Matt Gilman’s “Awaken Love,” a live rendition of the title track from his upcoming solo album with Forerunner Music, is a moving cry for a heart of love to burn within each one of us, that we would love Jesus like He loves us. “We Love Your Name,” and “My Comfort,” both feature a powerful choral ensemble, The Cry, that adds intensity and passion to the stirring lyrics.

Other stand-out tracks include; “Always Forever” performed by Misty Edwards, IHOPKC’s most well-known worship leader, and Laura Hackett’s “You Satisfy My Soul,” reminding us of the truth that God is the radiant One who transforms our darkest night with the bright light of His glory.
