Hillsong Worship's "God He Reigns" Turns 10 Years-Old

Hillsong Worship's "God He Reigns" turns 10 years old this July. "God He Reigns" is the Australian mega church's fourteenth album and it features worship favorites such as "Salvation is Here," "Emmanuel," "Saviour," and "His Love." "Emmanuel" written by Reuben Morgan was later re-recorded for Hillsong Worship's 2012 Christmas album "We've a Savior." Both versions feature Darlene Zschech on vocals.
"God He Reigns" was recorded live at the Sydney Entertainment Centre on 27 February 2005 by Darlene Zschech and the Hillsong team with a congregation of 10,500. God He Reigns was released at the annual Hillsong Conference in July 7th.
The album was a huge success in Australia peaking at the ARIA at #2. The DVD topped the charts at #1. It was released in a week where Australian idol winners Guy Sebastian and Paulini both had albums released. Hillsong Worship managed to outsell most secular releases that week and it became one of the nation's biggest sellers that week.
