Sing (Your Love) comes from one of my favourite Australian albums – For All You’ve Done. This evangelical Christian album peaked at No1 on the mainstream music charts in Australia. Soon after I was baptised by the Mornington Baptist Church in 2003 I couldn’t hear enough of this album. I would now consider myself more of an agnostic-judeo christian who holds dear ‘The Logos‘ (the divine animated force which pervades the Universe and the ‘Word’ made into flesh), archetypes, meta-heroes and spiritual truths of Biblical scripture. I remain very fond of Christian music as most of my long time readers could attest.
For All You’ve Done is the thirteenth album in the live praise and worship series of contemporary worship music by Hillsong Church. It was recorded in the Spring of 2004 at The Sydney Entertainment Centre with a 500-voice choir and a house packed with worshippers as seen below. Some have called it the golden era of Hillsong (the early 2000’s) with so many outstanding songs. Hillsong is one of the largest evangelical Christian churches in the world. What began as a small pentecostal church in a suburb of Sydney now holds services on all six habitable continents, with 30 locations and more than 80 affiliated campuses.
The performer of Sing (Your Love) is Reuben Morgan (image above) who I had the good fortune to meet for dinner at my local church in South-east of Melbourne and present the lyrics during his show. He has featured here previously with the effervescent – Mighty To Save. Born 9 August 1975, Reuben Timothy Morgan is an Australian worship pastor at Hillsong Church and one of several worship leaders and songwriters in Hillsong Worship group.
It used to be darkness
Without You
I lived my life in blindness
But now I’m found
And I’ll sing
Sing I love You so
And I’ll sing
Because the world can’t take away
Your love
Found me in weakness
Broken
You came to me in kindness
And now I live
I’ll give my life for You Lord
For all You’ve done
I’ll give my life for You Lord
For all You’ve done
