Mighty to Save is the title track off Hillsong’s 2006 album. This is the third song to appear here from Hillsong. The quality and vibrance of this performance are nothing short of spectacular to my senses. The performer of today’s track is Reuben Morgan who I had the good fortune to meet for dinner at Mornington Baptist church and present the lyrics during his show. More songs will appear from both Hillsong and Reuben Morgan as a solo artist from his first album – World Through Your Eyes.
Reuben Timothy Morgan (born 9 August 1975) is an Australian worship pastor at Hillsong Church and one of several worship leaders and songwriters in Hillsong Worship group. Prior to this he was a worship pastor at Hillsong Church in Sydney, Australia. He has written songs such as “Eagles Wings“, “Hear Our Praises“, “I Give You My Heart“, “My Redeemer Lives” and “Mighty to Save” (today’s song), which won the Worship Song of the Year at the 40th GMA Dove Awards.
[Verse 1]
Well, everyone needs compassion
A love that’s never failing
Let mercy fall on me
Well, everyone needs forgiveness
The kindness of a Saviour
The hope of nations
[Chorus]
Saviour, He can move the mountains
And my God is mighty to save, He is mighty to save
Forever, Author of Salvation
He rose and conquered the grave
Jesus conquered the grave
Mighty to Save was released in what many suggest was the golden era of Hillsong – the early 2000’s. I wrote about a previous album they released For All You’ve Done (2004) which hasn’t got a mediocre track on it. Mighty to Save is the fifteenth album in the live praise and worship series of contemporary worship music by Hillsong Church. It was released in July 2006, at the annual Hillsong Conference. The album peaked at No. 25 on the ARIA Albums Chart.
