Therefore, without further ado, we present our picks for the top worship songs of all time. Furthermore, if you want to learn how to play these songs on an instrument or understand the lyrics of the songs, we have included links to each in this blog post. Â
Before The Throne Of God Above
The Christian hymn "Before the Throne of God Above" was composed in 1863 by Charitie Lees Smith (1841–1923), who was the daughter of a reverend in Dublin. Those lines first appeared in a hymnal titled "The Advocate" that same year. Her poem appeared in a variety of anthologies under a variety of pen names and layouts.
 A Sovereign Grace Music composer named Vikki Cook made the decision to create a unique tune for the more than 130-year-old hymn in 1997. Only a few years passed before the tune was included in hymnals everywhere. Several artists have recorded their own renditions of the hymn, but Kristyn Getty's version for Sovereign Grace Music is widely regarded as the definitive one.

Called Me Higher
"Called Me Higher" came out of being stuck spiritually and moving closer to God, as Leslie Jordan describes, who wrote this popular hymn. As she described it in her own words, if that makes any kind of sense, this song is more of an expression of desire than a declaration of that truth. Here's what I'm saying to God: "I know this is what You want, and You've called me to it, and I'm going to do what You want me to do and go where You want me to go."
 Leslie grew up in Tennessee, where she now serves as a worship leader, author, and composer. She's been in the Greater Nashville Area for 15 years now. For 10 years, Leslie led worship as part of the pastoral team at Journey Church, and she and David Leonard later created the band All Sons & Daughters, an American Christian band. All Sons & Daughters released a live album, five studio albums, and a greatest hits collection between 2010 and 2018.

10,000 ReasonsÂ
The praise song "10,000 Reasons (Bless the Lord)" was written by Matt Redman and Jonas Myrin and originally appeared on Redman's album of the same name in 2011. This song's lyrics are based on Psalm 103, which sings God's thanks for His mercy and healing.
 This hymn explains that we have many reasons to praise God, and it lists many of those reasons in its several lyrics. The song is calm and simple to learn, making it perfect for large groups as well.
 This new take on an old hymn gives us "ten thousand causes for my heart to discover" to sing God's praises. The song's opening line, "Worship the Lord, my soul; all my inmost being, praise his glorious name," is taken from Psalm 103. It is also based on the English hymn "Praise, My Soul, the King of Heaven" by Henry Francis Lyte, which was written in the 1800s.

Way MakerÂ
Sinach first published the song "Way Maker" in 2016, and Leeland reworked it in 2019. In a time when people are writing praise songs based on their emotions and perceptions of God, this song focuses only on God—who he is and what he is doing.
 Sinach, a Nigerian artist, penned Way Maker so that everyone might benefit from the words of Genesis Chapter 5. Way Maker was undeniably 2020's greatest Christian music radio hit. Way Maker is evidence that a song must be a success if it is written from the heart and has lyrics that connect with listeners all around the globe.

This song is in a number of additional hymnals and is sung in churches all over the world.

 This I Believe (The Creed)
There are few declarations in history as astonishing as the Apostles' Creed, which also serves as one of the most uniting affirmations of Christian doctrine. As a significant feature of corporate worship services across the globe, it focuses on the fundamental doctrines that have unified the church over the ages.
John Dickson, Director of the Centre for Public Christianity, appealed to the songwriters to write a song reminiscent of the Apostles’ Creed, and Cass Langton and Ben Fielding took up the challenge, and shortly after, Ben and Matt Crocker wrote this beautiful rendition in 2014. If you are into listening to worship music, this is one of the best.

Final Reflections
Music is a potent tool for shaping our feelings and dispositions. Worship songs have a greater effect since they focus on God's benevolence. The songs help us remember who God is and what He has done for us. Just as David and Solomon felt after composing the songs in the Psalms and Song of Solomon, so too will our faith and hope be strengthened by doing so.
