In the afterglow of capturing a Dove award for "Rock album of the year" with their southern-rock grinder Time, Third Day has now stepped in line with the worship movement and released Offerings: A Worship Album. Interspersed among five new songs, this album contains several live concert tracks, including the favorite "Your Love, Oh Lord." Even though the new songs demonstrate Third Day's superior creativity and talent, the live tracks are the forte of this project. The undulating dynamics exhibit the band's unity as they work together to create a singular response to the Savior. As well, some of the tracks incorporate the sound of the worshiping audience, adding a congregational feel to the album. The lyrical content is similar to that of songs from a typical Sunday morning service. But these traditional expressions of faith are given new life by the resonating fervor of Mac Powell's lead vocal style. Third Day is known for being uncompromisingly God-centered with their music. This project uncovers that quality to its most extreme degree. --Israel Button

1) Recommended CD [Rating: 5 out of 5]
This one's great! One of Third Day's best albums. Offerings II is awesome as well.2) Awesome! [Rating: 5 out of 5]
Awesome! That is the best description of this praise & worship CD from Third Day. My all-time favorite is "Saved". It's reminiscent of the old days of southern Christian music that really rocked the house! God bless Third Day and their music ministry. They use the music of today to express a message that has been relevant since before the dawn of man.3) Praise AND great guitar riffs!! [Rating: 5 out of 5]
Love this album!! My favorite is Consuming Fire! I want to take guitar lessons just to learn the opening hook alone! I wish it were part of the Amazon sample so that new listeners of Third Day could hear it! But the sample lyrics the Amazon people chose to play is why Third Day rocks!You'd have to be dead both literally and physically not to be moved by the Spirit behind this album. Hearing it in concert with the volume cranked really high takes you right to the crowded front row of the concert. How can you not raise your hands high in worship to this powerful and moving album? "Thief" chokes me up EVERY time! The visuals you get while listening will stir your soul.GREAT BAND - GREAT ALBUM - GREAT GOD!4) Rocky Live Worship with a Hidden Song [Rating: 4 out of 5]
Normally I (age 35) prefer acoustic type praise like the first free worship CD from "Firefighters for Christ", but this album is starting to grow on me. Most of the songs are great, especially the hidden one, "Don't Let Me Go". It is located after a long 2 minute pause at the end of the "Love Song" track. Here are the Lyrics:Don't Let Me Go (hidden track)by Mark Lee, ©2000/Take my heart and help me feelTake my faith and make it realTake my eyes and help me see all the love surrounding me/Don't let me goHold me close to where you areDon't let me go/Take my heart take all of meTake my loss and take my gainTake my trial and take my painTake my life and let it be all that you have for me (end)Most of the doctrine seems sound. Without the overbearing electric guitar, audience noise, band intro talking and 2 minute pause, it would be a 5 star CD.5) Good stuff... [Rating: 5 out of 5]
I'm not a huge Third Day fan, and I find the worship album genre to be totally saturated. However, this album emerges near the top.Quite frankly, I find just about every song on this recording to be memorable. My personal favorites are "All the Heavens" and "Love Song," which wrap things up admirably.The live nature of several of the tracks are great, as we experience some of the beauty of a Third Day concert. (I saw them in concert years ago and found that experience to be much better than any of their other recordings besides this one.)Third Day chose songs for this worship album with great spiritual depth, outstanding musical diversity, and great technical skill. And Mac Powell's voice is fantastic, as always.If I could only choose one worship album for my collection, this one would certainly be in the running!!
