The songs of We the Kingdom are captivating. They have straddled the tacit divide between raw expressions of worship and the polished stadium-filling explosions of praise well. This means their songs not only sound authentic but there's a sing along quality to them that posture them well in the context of congregational singing. Their versatility has also opened for them opportunities to record with a ray of diverse acts such as Chris Tomlin, Rend Collective and NEEDTOBREATHE. The Tomlin-connection shouldn't come as a surprise as We the Kingdom is fronted by Ed Cash. Cash has not only produced many of Tomlin's records, he has also been the co-mastermind behind the creation of many of Tomlin's worship anthems, including """"How Great is Our God"""",""""Red Letters,""""Jesus Messiah"""",""""Whom Shall I Fear"""",""""All My Hope"""" and many others. \\n\\nLike the songs of Tomlin, this album is also geared for congregation worship. The jaunty """"God So Loved"""" boldly invites congregates to lay our addictions and our failures and lay them at the Cross. The song's unvarnished bravery and straightforwardness in worship are worth heeding to. The slower """"Dancing on the Waves,"""" with its faint echo to Hillsong UNITED's """"Oceans,"""" also pushes us to the edge of our comfortability to trust in Jesus in life's uncertainties. And tracks such as """"SOS"""" and """"Holy Water"""" have hooks strong enough for even the most tune-deaf pew seater to warm up to in no time.
