THREE DECADES OF SONGS FOR THE CHURCH

SOVEREIGN GRACE MUSIC

It all started in 1984 with the release of Mighty God, a cassette tape of a live recording, with songs penned by Mark Altrogge, Steve & Vikki Cook, and Bob Kauflin.

Since that time thirty years ago, Sovereign Grace Music has produced over 60 projects with musical styles ranging from rap to hymns, from rock to alternative, from remixes to choruses. We’ve recorded more than 500 songs written by over thirty writers, but our purpose has never changed: to serve the local church with songs that are theologically informed and gospel-rich. Our music is now being translated into thirteen languages and we’re grateful to play a part in proclaiming the good news of Jesus Christ throughout the world with our music.

To celebrate God’s faithfulness, we asked a number of artists and musicians we’ve come to know through the years to record a version of some of our more well known songs. We were excited about what they came up with, and hope you will be, too.

“OH SING TO THE LORD A NEW SONG; SING TO THE LORD, ALL THE EARTH! SING TO THE LORD, BLESS HIS NAME; TELL OF HIS SALVATION FROM DAY TO DAY” (Ps. 96:1-2).

VERSE 2But as I ran my hell-bound race

Indifferent to the costYou looked upon my helpless state

And led me to the crossAnd I beheld God’s love displayed

You suffered in my placeYou bore the wrath reserved for me

Now all I know is grace

CHORUSHallelujah! All I have is Christ

Hallelujah! Jesus is my life
