God of this City

One of the CDs I got over Christmas was Chris Tomlin’s Hello Love. One of the highlights is his cover of Bluetree’s ‘God of this City’ .

The story behind the song is really amazing - Bluetree were on a mission trip to Thailand and got the opportunity to lead worship in a bar/brothel. In the middle of the worship time they got ‘God of this City”as a prophetic song and now it’s being sung around the world.

Chris Tomlin talks about the song …

A video by Bluetree with cool pictures of Belfast (where the band is from) -worth it for the pictures alone I’d say…

I should also say that Dave has been talking about this song for a few months- thanks for letting me know about it! If you have a  song you’ve discovered recently let me know …
