Wednesday marked the release of Sovereign Grace Music's new album, Sooner Count the Stars. What's this album's focus? The Trinity.
This is what they write about the album:
“'The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ and the love of God and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit be with you all' (2 Corinthians 13:14).
Grace...love...fellowship. This is what God invites us to participate in as we worship Him–an endless spring of inexpressible joy, affection, and beauty that the Father, Son, and Spirit have experienced from all eternity.
Apart from God revealing Himself to us as triune we would never know Who He really is. But the Trinity isn’t so much a puzzle to be figured out as it is a relationship to enjoy. The goal isn’t complete understanding, but complete delight.
As we wrote the songs for this album, we wanted to inspire gratefulness and wonder that the Father has joined us to Himself through the substitutionary sacrifice of His Son and sent His Spirit to open our eyes to His love.
We pray that’s what happens as you listen to and sing these songs."
If you aren't impressed by a godly endeavor to create beautiful, theologically-accurate music about the Trinity, you should be. You can listen to SGM's new album below.
