Our God Comes - Antioch Live

Our God Comes is the latest worship project CD from Antioch Live. It's got fourteen tracks and starts off with the upbeat and catchy Come. After that it mellows out quite a bit and really slows down. While lyrically it is spot on and beautifully written, it didn't catch me like I thought it would. 
My favorite track would have to be Wonderful Counselor, I love the arrangement and also the words. 
I'm not at all familiar with the Antioch Movement (what they call themselves) though they've been at it for twenty years. This was the first I'd heard of them.

Their CD debuted at #2 on iTunes. You can learn more about them here.

I think instead of keeping this one in my car I'll let my church use it for pre-service music, it will provide the right atmosphere as we prepare to enter into worship.
