Hillsong Team Releases New Live Worship Album

Darlene Zschech and the Hillsong team are back with their latest annual live worship album, Saviour King, which is now available on CD and DVD.

The album was recorded on 18 March 2007 at the Acer Arena, Sydney's largest indoor stadium, in front of 13,000 worshippers.

Hillsong say of the new album, "The new songs included on this album are exactly that – songs with life, energy and, ultimately, heartfelt adoration for our Saviour, Jesus Christ. The title track Saviour King has become an anthem in Hillsong Church of late, and was sung at both the opening and the close of the evening. Our prayer is that you would be inspired to worship in spirit and truth as the power of our incredible God is declared through the beautiful songs on this latest Hillsong LIVE album."

In other news, Hillsong United, the youth-centred worship ministry of Hillsong, debuted in the No. 1 slot of America's Billboard's Top Christian & Gospel Albums chart with their eighth career album, All of the Above.

With more than 10,000 discs sold, this is the first time Hillsong United tops the tally in its decade-plus distribution in the United States.

Hillsong was founded by Brian and Bobbie Houston in 1983, and now has over 20,000 worshippers attending any given weekend.
