Day 11 - City on a Hill - God of Wonders

11. City on a Hill - God of Wonders
From the album City on a Hill: Songs of Worship and Praise (Essential, 2000)

City on a Hill was actually a collaborative effort spearheaded by Producer Steve Hindalong and features members of Jars of Clay, Sixpence None the Richer, Third Day, FFH, Peter Fuhrler, Gene Eugene (from Adam Again), The Choir, SonicFlood and Caedmon's Call. God of Wonders, the albums biggest hit, features Mac Powell of Third Day and Caedmon's Call among the 12 musicians performing in the song. God of Wonders is a simple declaration of the holiness and majesty of the Creator.The singers and the music combine for the perfect mix of awe and adoration as the song starts out slow and reverent and builds to a robust climax. The subtle inclusion of the a line from the traditional hymn Holy, Holy, Holy, Lord God Almighty blends traditional and modern worship in a way that works perfectly.

Here is the original album version of the song.
