Elim 100, the latest album from Elim Pentecostal Church's worship ministry Elim Sound, is a landmark project that commemorates the UK-based church's centenary by both reflecting on it's rich heritage and looking forward to where God will lead next. The album was produced by Ian Yates and Trevor Michael and features a mix of classic hymn arrangements and new original anthems led by 10 Elim worship leaders from across England, Scotland, Northern Ireland, and Wales.
"The Best Is Yet To Come" highlights the overriding theme of the album, praising God for all that He has done and celebrating all that He is still yet to do. With great anticipation, the chorus declares, "Here we stand, God we are so thankful. Looking back, we know you've been faithful. We're expectant for the future. We believe the best is yet come." Elim Sound remarks, "We believe this anthemic song serves as a reminder of God’s faithfulness and constant grace over the last 100 years of our movement and as a declaration that the best is yet to come." "No Longer I" was co-written with Matt Redman and appears on his latest release, Unbroken Praise. Congregations will appreciate the familiarity of the song, adapted from the hymn, "At The Cross." The chorus worships, "I will run to the cross, where You opened up my eyes. I will sing of the love that saved me. I will bow in the place where Your death became my life. I will run, I will run to the cross." "I Will Give Thanks" is an upbeat anthem that details all the ways God has been faithful, echoing Psalm 136 as it praises, "I will give thanks to the Lord forever, I will give thanks. I will give thanks to the Lord forever, I will give thanks. For the Lord has been so good to me. He has blessed my life abundantly. He’s provided, guided, lifted me, He is faithful through it all."
Elim 100 hit number 1 on the UK Christian iTunes chart upon it's release. We encourage you to pick up your copy of the album today!
