This Song is That Song – Fill Me Up, Don Poythress
Posted on August 17th, 2009 in Music, Worship Leadership by Fred McKinnon
You know how these songs come along that just cause you to immediately sense God “doing something” in you?
Every few months I hear a song that is like that. For the longest time it was “Where You Go I Go”. Then, it was “How He Loves Us”. Lately, it’s been “We Cry Out” (Gateway).
Then I got a copy of the new Don Poythress album, “Wash Away”. (iTunes Link) It’s got a country vibe to it which is a great change of pace from pulsing bass lines and the now-signature “Hillsong” guitar tone.
I’m really enjoying this album – quite refreshing. Kudos to the folks at Integrity Music for going out there with an incredible songwriter and worship leader and producing a record that sounds different than all the typical music we here in the “praise and worship” genre.
There’s a great arrangement of the classic “Doxology” that I used yesterday in our worship services at SSCC that has received tons of positive feedback already.
One of my favorite tracks, though, is my newest “that song does it to me” song. It’s called “Fill Me Up”. It’s a co-write between Don Poythress and Jared Anderson of New Life in Colorado. (hint, Jared also recorded this on his upcoming “Live from My Church” album due to be released in September, and I’ve heard it and love it there, too)
My friends in the publishing division of Integrity Music has been gracious to grant permission for me to put the entire song here for you to stream and listen to. Hope you enjoy it. While you’re at it – hop over and read the full review of this album on TheWorshipCommunity.Com, submitted by Mandy Thompson.
