Tim Hughes, the artist-worshiper and two-time Dove Award winner best known for writing the current #1 CCLI song, "Here I Am to Worship," will release his third album, HOLDING NOTHING BACK, on April 3 via Sparrow Records.
"Worship is about surrender, holding nothing back and giving all of ourselves to the One who gave His everything for us," Hughes says in describing the theme of his new album. The set is led by first single "Happy Day" and also includes "The Highest and the Greatest," "Clinging to the Cross," and "Almighty God" among others.
Hughes led select worship sessions and seminars at the recent Passion 07 conference and is well respected among worship leaders and artists. Presently, 40 million people sing "Here I Am to Worship" each week in thousands of churches worldwide according to the CCLI church performance monitoring system. The song has also been popularized in recordings by Michael W. Smith and others. Another act, By the Tree, reached #2 on the Christian adult contemporary radio chart with a version of the Hughes song "Beautiful One."
HOLDING NOTHING BACK is the follow-up to 2004's WHEN SILENCE FALLS about which CCM magazine wrote, "Hughes has succeeded in bringing his listeners somewhere special." Worship Leader magazine said the project "consolidates the young UK singer and songwriter's reputation as one of the most accessible and accomplished artists in today's worship arena."
