“God Of This City,” is a song birthed by Ireland-based modern worship band Bluetree in a brothel in Thailand. An anthem being sung worldwide, “God Of This City” was written by Bluetree during a mission trip and while the band was on stage performing worship songs in the Climax Bar, a club which doubles as a brothel in the Red Light district of Pattaya, Thailand. The song became a message of hope for the people of Pattaya and is now being sung in churches across the world. It was further recorded by Chris Tomlin and became the name and theme for the latest Passion project and world tour.
The acclaimed album, God Of This City, has become one the best selling Christian recordings this year. Watch American IdolWinner Kris Allen sing God of This City.
God of This City
You’re the God of this City
You’re the King of these people
You’re the Lord of this nation
You are
You’re the Light in this darkness
You’re the Hope to the hopeless
You’re the Peace to the restless
You are
There is no one like our God
There is no one like our God
For greater things have yet to come
And greater things are still to be done in this City
Greater thing have yet to come
And greater things are still to be done here
You’re the Lord of creation
You’re Creator of all things
You’re the King above all kings
You are
You’re the Strength in the weakness
You’re the Love to the broken
You’re the Joy in the sadness
You are
For there is no one like our God
There is no one like you God
For greater things have yet to come
And greater things are still to be done in this City
Glory
And grace for you and love for you in this City
For greater things have yet to come
And greater things are still to be done in this City
Greater things have yet to come
And greater things are still to be done here
There is no one like our God
There is no one like our God
Greater things have yet to come
And greater things are still to be done in this City
Greater things have yet to come
And greater things are still to be done here
