Hillsong and Delirious? Unified: Praise

For an unforgettable night Delirious? joined Hillsong at the Sydney SuperDome in Australia with 20,000 worshippers to praise God. This exciting album captures the electrifying atmosphere as well as the energy of the people, as they all join in together to worship God with one voice.

There is a real mix of songs in this album, some which require immediate dancing and others that soothe the soul with their gentleness. Delirious? prefer to praise God with jumping in the air songs full of energy and excitement, whereas Hillsong go for the quieter approach of passionate songs of praise that will soon have you swaying from side to side. This combination produces a great mix of two different styles of Christian music that come together well in this amazing album.

Album Reviews

Everyday
The exhilarating atmosphere in “Everyday” begins Unified Praise with a bang. The congregation are full of energy as they sing of living a life of worship “everyday”, and you can just imagine them dancing along to the upbeat music. “Its you I live for everyday” is repeated many times in the second half of the song, which proves to be a powerful and climaxing end to this great opening song, and one that the congregation clearly loved.

Free
Mind boggling upbeat music is the best way to describe “free”. Listeners are gently brought into this song with quiet singing, and then are jolted awake with an explosive chorus as they all sing of the freedom they have gained through Jesus. There is a brilliant atmosphere in this song as the voices of 20,000 worshippers can be heard, all praising God with one voice. This is a truly inspirational song.

I Give You My Heart
Darlene Zschech quietens her congregation with the gentle and emotive “I give you my heart” which sings of giving God everything. The congregation are out pouring their praise to God in this well-known much loved song, giving it a wonderful atmospheric feeling.
^Top

Worthy Is The Lamb
“Worthy is the lamb” is another soothing song sung with real emotion. This is a typical Christian music song, which makes it easy to understand and listen to. This song is much more interesting to listen to live, as the thousands of worshippers can be heard, making it feel as though we are worshipping with them.

I Could Sing Of Your Love Forever
The much loved “I could sing of your love forever” begins with a gentle Hillsong, and then an excitable Delirious? joins in, which emits a huge cheer from the congregation. This song becomes much more energetic when Delirious? takes the stage, and these two Christian music bands become united as they sing of God’s great love for us. This song gets a bit flat, as it is dragged out a little, but the atmosphere soon rises with the added volume, and the song finishes with a huge cheer of joy.

King of Majesty
The gentler “King of Majesty” proves to be another crowd-pleaser song and is packed with easy to sing lyrics that are full of praise. The clapping of thousands of people combined with the electrifying keyboard and the catchy beat of the drums gives this Christian music song a wonderful energetic feel.

Did You Feel The Mountains Tremble?
“Did you feel the mountains tremble” is an obvious much-loved song, which soon has the crowd clapping and cheering along. The improvisations throughout gives this song an original and interesting touch. The highlight of this Christian music song is when everyone is asked to “dance upon injustice” which ends the song in a burst of energetic exciting music.
^Top

Rain Down
The congregation is cooled down a little with the less energetic “Rain Down”. Delirious? is asking the Holy Spirit to fill our hearts with “holy fire” and to “rain down” and flood the Earth. The energy of Delirious? is definitely contagious and this song finishes with explosive applause.
^Top

Majesty (Here I Am)
“Majesty (here I am)” is a lot quieter than the previous songs with fantastic atmospheric singing from the pumped up congregation. This Christian music song sings of Jesus’ “greatest sacrifice” and the grace of God in typical contemporary Christian music style.
^Top

What A Friend I’ve Found
Delirious? and Hillsong are brought together in unison in the song “What a friend I’ve found” as they sing together of the intimate friendship which is available through Jesus. Darlene Zschech voice shines with vocal brilliance and gentleness, and the quiet atmosphere of this song reflect the lyrics perfectly.
^Top

History Maker
Listeners are now jerked awake with the song “History Maker”, which is another Delirious? classic. Delirious? have a huge talent of stirring up the congregation, and the congregation love it. It was an excellent choice to end on this song, as it finishes this astounding album with a bang.
