From the creative, collaborative spirits of Third Day lead vocalist Mac Powell and evangelist David Nasser comes 2007’s most unique album project, Glory Revealed: The Word of God in Worship. Releasing to retail on March 6, this diverse project features songs crafted directly from Scripture, lending a tangible, familiar base for the overall worship experience, set to a musical canvas drawn from every corner of the modern acoustic mold, touching on folk, rock, country, bluegrass and more. Featured on the album are a group of respected artists who believe wholeheartedly in the album’s concept.
“The glory of the Lord is best revealed in His Word,†David Nasser explains. “When we begin to dig into the truth that is found within the pages of the Bible, we will begin to see His glory revealed. Mac Powell says of the sound of Glory Revealed, “Both of my parents played acoustic guitar and taught me, so that was always a big part of music for me. I wanted to have the chance to make a record that was very laid back and simple, and I’m really glad we kept its simplicity.â€
Both Mac and David reached out to friends to participate in this project. They brought together a set of like-minded, yet stylistically divergent contributors to flesh out this tribute to the Word in song.
Established artists including Powell, Steven Curtis Chapman, Michael W. Smith, Brian Littrell and Casting Crowns’ Mark Hall are found on Glory Revealed, but listeners also get the chance to discover the talents of people like Trevor Morgan, Hyper Static Union’s Shawn Lewis, David Crowder, Shane & Shane, Candi Pearson-Shelton, Josh Bates and Starfield’s Tim Neufeld.
The first radio single, “By His Wounds,†written by Powell and Nasser, delivers a powerhouse vocal lineup of industry favorites, Mark Hall, Steven Curtis Chapman, Brian Littrell and Mac Powell.
