Chris Tomlin, one of the most popular worship leaders of our time, will be releasing his fifth studio album, Hello Love, this autumn with recently released solo "Jesus Messiah" amongst the tracks.

In his album, scheduled to be released on September 2, Tomlin focuses on the core of Christian worship - love.

"With each new record, I continue to strive to create songs that will help people voice their worship to God," said Tomlin. "Worship is a massive word with a very broad scope, but in the end, it is very simple. It is love!"

Hello Love contains 12 tracks, some of which are already being used in worship context across the nation. Perhaps the most noticeable track on this album is "Jesus Messiah".

"Jesus Messiah" was released on June 13 and is currently ranked No 1 on the iTunes Christian Top Chart. It is already receiving enthusiastic responses the public and radio alike.

In addition to being one of the most influential artists in Contemporary Christian Music, Chris Tomlin is currently the most sung Christian artist in the United States, according to Christian Copyright Licensing International (CCLI).

On CCLI's list of the Top 25 songs, which is published for each recording cycle, are four of Tomlin's songs - "How Great is Our God", "Holy is the Lord", "Forever", and "We Fall Down" (ranked No 1, 6, 8, and 14, respectively).

Furthermore, Tomlin holds two RIAA Gold-certified records (Arriving and See the Morning), two Grammy nominations, and numerous other awards and accolades.
