Awesome God

"Awesome God" was a popular worship song in America during the late 1980s. It was written by Rich Mullins who died in a car accident in 1997, and is considered one of his best. Many Christian bands have performed "cover" versions in various styles, from ska to swing to straight rock and traditional worship style. Its lyrics are simple, clear and repetative to emphasise its description of the nature of the Christian God (sometimes called Yahweh)
