Awesome God F#m Oh when He rolls up his sleeves he ain't just puttin' on the ritz, Bm7 C#m7 F#m Our God is an awesome God. There is thunder in his footsteps and lightning in his fists, Bm7 C#m7 F#m Our God is an awesome God. Bm7 And the Lord wasn't joking when He kicked 'em out of Eden. C#m7 It wasn't for no reason that He shed his blood. D D/B D/F# His return is very soon and so you'd better be believin' that Bm7 C#m7 F#m Our God is an awesome God. D A Our God is an awesome God. E F#m He reigns from heaven above D A with wisdom, pow'r and love Bm7 C#m7 F#m Our God is an awesome God And when the sky was starless in the void of the night, Our God is an awesome God. He spoke into the darkness and created the light, Our God is an awesome God. And judgment and wrath He poured out on Sodom. Mercy and grace He gave us at the cross. I hope that we have not too quickly forgotten that Our God is an awesome God
About the artist behind Awesome God:
The term "Contemporary Christian Music" originated in the late 1960s in reference to the emerging pop and rock "Jesus music", the musical product of the Jesus Movement of the time.[3] The Mind Garage is considered the first Christian Rock band, with documentation going back to 1967 in local media and national magazines and newspapers such as The Village Voice, Billboard and Rolling Stone magazine. The Electric Liturgy (RCA Victor LSP-4319), recorded 1969 and released 1970, was the first Christian Rock album recorded in Nashville in RCA's "Nashville Sound" Studio A, on Music Row which was under the management of Chet Atken. Studio A is now a museum.
There is also a great deal of popular music which lyrically identifies with Christianity but is not normally considered Contemporary Christian Music.[3] For example, many punk, hardcore, and holy hip-hop groups deal explicitly with issues of faith but are not a part of the Nashville industry[citation needed] (e.g., Seattle-based Tooth and Nail Records). Also, several mainstream music artists sometimes deal with Christian themes in their work, such as Creed, Lifehouse, and Switchfoot, but fall outside of the CCM genre though they may receive airplay on CCM radio stations.[3]
