Notable tracks include the first English-language single going to radio April 28, “God Who Moves The Mountains,” “Praise The King” and the Spanish-language version of this song that is at radio today throughout Latin America, “Gloria Al Rey,” “Lay It At The Cross,” which is being featured as LifeWay Christian Stores’ April “song of the month,” “Grande Eres Dios” (“Great Are You Lord”) and “Trust You,” a song that sparked the project’s title and captures the core message of this new album.
