If you haven't already heard the rumbling from Down Under, now's the time to introduce yourself to Reuben Morgan's U.S. debut, World Through Your Eyes. It leaves the definite impression of a seasoned, yet youthful face from Australia's Hillsong church. Having spent years honing the craft of songwriting and owning the weekly responsibility of leading worship under mentor-friend and fellow Aussie Darlene Zchsech, it is impossible to play without hearing and remembering.
Contemporized gems - 'My Redeemer Lives' and 'I Give You My Heart' resonate firmly beside the aggressive pop-laden hooks of 'All the Heavens' and 'Hear Our Praises,' new melodies that will undoubtedly end-up repeating throughout radio stations and churches nationwide. Creatively sensible production carries the songs from start to finish, giving the album a level of entirety and wholeness unusual in today's musically sporadic market.
