Christian music news: Top Ten Third Day Songs
Latest christian music: Third Day was formed in 1991 by front-man Mac Powell and guitarist Mark Lee. Soon after, they expanded the band and began recording albums. A Christian group hailing from Georgia, their songs focus on faith in God. With three Grammy's to their name, Third Day has
plenty of hits. Here are ten of their best songs:
1. Cry out to Jesus This raw and sorrowful song encourages people who are suffering to cry out to Jesus. It promises hope and reminds us of a Savior who can offer rest and peace. I like this song because it asserts that no problem is too great for God to handle.
2. God of Wonders With the opening Oasis-like guitar riff and lyrics that speak of God's creation, this song is likely Third Day's most popular. The lyrics, "the universe displays your majesty" are repeated many times, making for a passionate praise song.
3. I've Always Loved You "I've Always Loved You" is a sweet song that speaks of a God who has loved his people before there was time. This song also serves as a meditation on God's sacrifice for us. I personally like this song because it reminds me that even when I stray from God, his love remains constant.
4. I Believe This up-beat song professes a positive and hopeful belief system. In a world where Christianity is often painted in a negative light, this song focuses on the most enduring principles of Christianity: faith, hope, and love.
5. You are Mine Of all Third Day's songs, this one has the most mainstream appeal. Within the song's beautiful melody, the lyrics profess that God's sacrifice allows us to claim Him as our own.
6. These Thousand Hills This edgy and alternative sounding song talks about Jesus dying on the cross and the hope that we can have for an eternity in heaven. The powerful imagery conveyed in the lyrics reminds me of Bible stories I heard growing up in the church.
7. Your Love, Oh Lord This worship song contains the lyrics of Psalm 36. It talks about the vastness and unshakeable nature of God's love. The lyrics say it all: Your love Oh Lord reaches to the heavens/Your faithfulness stretches to the skies/Your righteousness is like the mighty mountain/Your justice flows like the ocean's tides.
Third Day is a Christianrock band from Georgia that was formed in the 1990s.

Tai Andersom and David Carr were added to the band and they became Third Day. The band released their self titled debut album in 1997 and sold over 300,000 copies.
