Here Are 7 Things You May Not Know About Aaron Williams' "The Hope of Christ"

Singer, songwriter and veteran worship leader Aaron Williams is set to bow his highly anticipated full-length debut, The Hope of Christ. Williams is an acclaimed worship leader and songwriter who has been featured on numerous recordings from The Worship Initiative. Seeking to write lyrically rich and musically compelling songs to help the Church voice its worship, Williams also has a passion for training and mentoring worship leaders and teams.
Here are 7 things to know about this new record:
1. The release date for the album is August 5.
2. The album features 10 pop-driven live worship selections extolling the boundless grace, love and rest offered by the Savior. Williams co-penned each track, with additional songwriting contributions from Shane Barnard, Jason Ingram, Jon Egan and Benji Cowart, among others.
2. The Hope of Christ's lead single "Walk By Faith" is an anthem of devotion to Jesus. You can listen to the track below:
4. Another key track is "Abide" (feat. Aaron Keyes); the song is a melodic ballad already resonating with worshipers around the world.
"The overarching theme that inspired this project is summed up in 'Abide,'" Williams shares. "We live in a world that often leaves us feeling like the only way forward is to hustle, achieve, and prove our value. Jesus offers a different way of life-a way that still leads to fruitfulness but does so out of a place of acceptance and life-giving relationship. To abide is to learn to live in dependance on God for all things. It's to stand on the truth that we are loved no matter what we achieve, and no matter how we fail."
5. "No Height No Depth," available later this week, is a deeply personal track for Williams. "I wrote it this Spring after nearly losing a close friend to mental health struggles," he reveals. "With rates of anxiety, depression, and suicide at an all-time high in our society, I wanted to offer a song that would help people give voice to worship during such seasons of life. If we're going to worship Him with sincerity during times of hardship and struggle, we need songs with fitting language for those moments. 'No Height No Depth' aims to honestly express where we are, while anchoring ourselves in the unchanging love of God."
6. Williams expresses his hope for the album. "I want The Hope of Christ to help people move deeper into that kind of abiding relationship with God, one that lingers in His presence and worships Him extravagantly in the everyday moments of life," Williams adds.
