Beautiful Things

Gungor sets a high bar for imaginative, idiosyncratic worship music—every song on <i>Beautiful Things</i> is a perfect marriage of music and lyric. Listen to how the hopeful words of “Brighter Day” are paired with charging rock ’n’ roll; how the gospel strains of “Heaven” blend with organ-kissed Southern soul; how “You Have Me” is gentle and folksy, “The Earth Is Yours” couches its praise in bells and chimes, and “Call Me Out” rides a tight, funky groove. Few worship albums are as colourful or as passionate.
