This is a sensational melodic and worshipful pop/rock where Tomlin's influences are as diverse as U2 and Michael W. Smith.
Packed with memorable, passionate worship songs for lovers of Matt Redman and Tim Hughes.
Album DescriptionLeaders make the indescribable visible. Isaiah's words, for instance, brought comfort to a defeated nation and transformed a people's imagination, empowering them to mount up with wings like eagles. Those words bear fruits today, capturing a post-modern visionary's heart, urging Chris Tomlin to call together God's people for life-renewing worship.
"I feel as though we're like this landing strip in the desert for our great, incredible God to arrive on; a way for Him to come into people's lives," Tomlin says of the album's metaphorical moniker inspired in part by Isaiah 40. Tomlin's third studio record and first in two years, Arriving demonstrates a Christian's glad surrender meeting God's welcoming arms.
Tomlin's undeniable energy is charismatic and contagious. Avoiding the trappings of public performance, Chris stands beside the people he serves, raising his voice to God with them so that they share God's presence together.
Credited with venerable church choruses such as "Forever," "We Fall Down," and "The Wonderful Cross," Tomlin is considered one of this era's top songwriters for the church with five songs in CCLI's Top 60 and four more in the service's Top 500. With millions singing his songs weekly, Chris is recognized as a pivotal voice of today's modern expression of Christian worship.
Arriving rocks with inspiring, guitar-driven pop melodies reflecting the roots traditions of Austin, Texas, where it was recorded and home to the church Tomlin co-founded, Austin Stone Community Church. The project's raw, straightforward lyrics are knotted tight with hooks as big and broad as the Lone Star state sky. Producer Ed Cash (Caedmon's Call, Kathy Mattea, Bebo Norman) brings his signature touch to the tracks, revealing that the talent pool is deeper than even the artist knew.
Additional Information After the success of Not to Us, Chris Tomlin returns with Arriving - a collection of songs embracing the theme in Isaiah 40:3-5; "In the desert prepare the way for the Lord; make straight in the wilderness a highway for our God." The all new recording captures a fresh stripped down acoustic rock style paired with soaring melodies. Includes "Indescribable", "How Great is Our God," "Holy Is The Lord", and more.

Arriving Feb 24, 2007
This CD is beautiful! The first cut is so anointed for worship. There are many that have now become familiar standards in contemporary worship. I highly reccomend this to anyone who likes Chris Tomlin. If you're unfamiliar with his work, you certainly will not be disappointed with this one!

Amazing Christian Rock Oct 8, 2006
I just got into Christian Rock, and have very few cds. In fact, I very rarely buy music cds. But this is an amazing cd, for any collection, be it Christian or regular rock. Chris has an amazing voice, great songs, and it makes you feel great listening.
A Jewel Among Pebbles Oct 2, 2006
I am only writing a review for this album two years after it was released and it's a shame I only found this jewel of a cd. However, better late than never. This, hands down, so far is the best worship album I have ever had the pleasure of finding and listening to.
I didnt know much of Chris Tomlin. I had ony heard 'Indescribable' on chrisian radio and I always thought that God, Himself must love that song. I bought the entire cd for that song but instead I got an eleven track treasure.
Chris Tomlin focuses on pure worship. There's no us involved here. It's all about God and that's what makes this cd so unique.
The music is of excellent quality, upbeat, catchy and stirring all at the same time. You can not doubt Chris Tomlin's love for the Lord. It's infectious and I would like to congratulate Chris Tomlin on such an amazing effort.
