Editor's note

Chris Tomlin writes songs for Sunday mornings.

His straightforward worship music has become a staple in churches for over two decades.

If you want to hear his approach, 'Your Grace Is Enough' is a good place to start. It's all there in the title.

Songs like 'Whom Shall I Fear (God Of Angels Armies)' and 'At The Cross (Love Ran Red)' are sung in congregations every week. They're part of the fabric of modern worship, simple enough for a room to join in. That's a specific kind of craft, and it's why his name is on so many setlists.

He started leading worship as a teenager in Texas. His 2001 debut 'The Noise We Make' introduced 'Indescribable,' and he's kept writing for the church ever since, through albums like 'See the Morning' and 'Burning Lights.'

Archive material and source history

Chris Tomlin grew up in Grand Saline, Texas, and started leading worship at his local church as a teenager. He attended Criswell College before moving to Austin to develop his music. His debut album 'The Noise We Make' came out in 2001, featuring the song 'Indescribable' that became widely used in Christian worship settings.

He followed that with albums like 'Not to Us,' 'See the Morning,' and 'Burning Lights.' Songs such as 'Whom Shall I Fear (God Of Angels Armies),' 'Resurrection Power,' and 'Holy Forever' have become familiar in many churches. In 2009, some criticism arose around his participation in a Hillsong conference, which he later clarified didn't mean he endorsed prosperity gospel teachings.

Tomlin has worked with other artists including Amy Grant, Michael W. Smith, and Lady A, who appears on 'Who You Are To Me.' His music continues to be part of worship gatherings, with straightforward songs like 'At The Cross (Love Ran Red)' reflecting his approach.
