Jesus Culture’s new album, Let It Echo is a solid album chock-full of praise jams and worship anthems. Produced by Jeremy Edwardson, it features the usual roster of Jesus Culture collaborators, including Kim Walker-Smith, Katie Torwalt, and Derek Johnson. Chris Quilala, of course, shines, especially on carrier single Fierce, which is rocketing up the Christian AC charts.
Fierce has everything go for it: a killer chorus; a catchy, singable melody; a spine-tingling bridge; and a subject matter that most Christians can relate to. I think this may be Jesus Culture’s strongest bet yet for a Christian Songs hit. Given that Christian AC has proven itself open to live worship now–Passion’s tracks are currently doing great things on the charts–I can see why it would be a Top 10 hit. Great song, great song.
FIERCE Lyrics
Before I call
Before I ever cry
You answer me
From where the thunder hides
I can’t outrun
This heart I’m tethered to
When every step
I collide with You
Like a tidal wave
Crashing over me
Rushing in to meet me here
Your love is fierce
Like a hurricane
That I can’t escape
Tearing through the atmosphere
Your love is fierce
You cannot fail
The only thing I’ve found
Is through it all
You never let me down
You don’t hold back
Relentless in pursuit
At every turn
I come face to face with You
Like a tidal wave
Crashing over me
Rushing in to meet me here
Your love is fierce
Like a hurricane
That I can’t escape
Tearing through the atmosphere
Your love is fierce
You surround me
You chase me down
You seek me out
How can I be lost
When You have called me found
You chase me down
You seek me out
How can I be lost
When You have called me found
You chase me down
You seek me out
How can I be lost
When You have called me found
Like a tidal wave
Crashing over me
Rushing in to meet me here
Your love is fierce
Like a hurricane
That I can’t escape
Tearing through the atmosphere
His love is fierce
Your love is fierce
You never let go
Your love is fierce
Even now You surround me
Your love is fierce
Always always
His love is fierce
