There is worship music, and then there are times when you feel like you are in a bigger place than the room you are in. "Christ is King" by Collective Worth is one of those. James Worth, a seasoned drummer and songwriter, started the cinematic, faith-based project. It begins with an epic, anthemic declaration meant to lift up believers and boldly affirm their devotion to Christ.
From the first thunder of the drums, it's clear that Worth is a very experienced musician. He plays the drums with authority and accuracy on the track, having been a major-label drummer for more than 40 years. His drums push the song forward like a call to rise. The energy is steady, strong, and commanding, and it sets the stage for what happens above it.
That base gives way to the powerful singing of famous singer/songwriter Laura Cashman. Her knockout delivery adds emotional weight and spiritual intensity. Cashman's voice is both personal and triumphant, and she is known for her captivating presence. She recently won Best of Loudoun 2025. She carries the message of the song, taking the listener to a place that is big and holy.
The Dallas Symphony Chorus adds to the song's grand scale by giving it a symphonic quality with their rich choral textures. The result is a worship experience that feels like a movie, with rich harmonies and a wide range of sounds. With the help of multi-platinum producer Jim Ebert, "Christ is King" perfectly combines worship, movie-like soundscapes, and honest truth. It's a strong statement with big, powerful production, music that you can not only hear but also feel.
