When I first heard that Chris Tomlin’s newest album was called “Holy Roar”, I had never heard that term before. According to Tomlin, Holy Roar is “the freedom, the experience, the wonder of worship. It is seeing the church come together, hands lifted to God, pouring out our praise with an eternal song in our hearts. It’s every voice together, changing the way we worship.”
After listening to the album, I can say that “Holy Roar” perfectly embodies the worship songs in Tomlin’s latest release. The title song is an upbeat, catchy anthem. The chorus explains it all:
A HOLY ROAR / REACHING FOR HEAVEN/ OUR PRAISE POURED OUT / WITH RECKLESS ABANDON /
OUR WORSHIP GOD / IS WHOLLY YOURS
I was also excited to see that a song that I am already familiar with, “Resurrection Power”, is included on this album. Chris Tomlin has so many songs that are considered Christian “classics”. I predict that many of the other songs from this album will be added to this collection.
Holy Roar is set to be released on October 26, 2018 and can be purchased here.
