Ghost Ship, one of the bands from Mars Hill Church, have just dropped their new album, The Good King. Preview and buy the album here. Check out the preview vid:
Really good Jesus-centred, gospel-centred lyrics. A number of the songs pick up the idea of Jesus as the fulfilment of Old Testament promises. I’m really enjoying all the tracks. So far, my three favourites are:
- track 3 – lion man // some good atonement theology with driving southern rock
- track 7 – holy holy holy // this hymn remake is all about the pipe organ at the end!
- track 10 – where were you // job 38 richness (God is God and you’re not)
Here is a lyric clip for track 1 ‘Mediator’
