Hey,just to clarify, the song was written by us (bluetree) while we lead worship in a strip bar when we were on a mission trip to Thailand. Several months later we did a gig with tomlin here in Belfast, Ireland and his guitarist heard it and that is how we all got hooked up together. Hope that helps. Andy
The guys who actually wrote this song were in a city which was the largest number of female prostitutes which is not including men and children. Anyways the guys just started playing music and he just started to sing the words and a guy from chris tomlins band heard them and got him.. God is soo awesome!

Knowing how much persons prayed for the city of Boston in advance of Passion, I am happy that so many college students were praising God in that city.
The song is called "God of this city" it was written by Arron Boyd the lead singer of the band Bluetree from Christian fellowship church in Belfast Northern Ireland, the church is reknowned for music with worship leaders such as Robin Mark coming from it!
i seem to remember him doing the whole song. i found the original song on myspace, and after hearing the lyrics, it sounded really familiar and i knew all the words, so i think he did do the whole song, but the user only recorded part of it
he did the whole song except he didnt do the "where glory shines from hearts alive with praise for you and love for you..." part of the chorus... we just repeated the greater things are yet to come... part
The song is called "Greater Things" and is by a brill band from Belfast, Northern Ireland called Bluetree (check them out at Bluetreeonline on the web)
They hail from the same church as Robin Mark and have just released a fantastic new album called Greater Things - they are awesome!!
