Nashville, Tenn. (Mar. 26, 2013) -sixstepsrecords' Matt Redman has yet one more reason to celebrate another crowning achievement for his powerful worship anthem "10,000 Reasons (Bless The Lord)." After earning two GRAMMY® awards in the categories of Best Contemporary Christian Music Song and Best Gospel/Contemporary Christian Music Performance this past February, the incredibly popular song was recently certified Digital Gold by the RIAA. As the first No. 1 single for co-writers Redman and Jonas Myrin, the song made an admirable 16-week run at No. 1 on Christian Radio and remained at No. 1 on the Billboard Christian Songs Chart for an impressive four months.

A song that has inspired individuals and church congregations around the world, "10,000 Reasons (Bless The Lord)" was also included among other favorite classics on his Essential Collection compilation album Sing Like Never Before, which released last fall. Redman is set to record a brand new, live worship album at Passion City Church's LIFT: A Worship Leader Collective, May 31-June 1 in Atlanta. Hosted by Louie Giglio and GRAMMY® winner Chris Tomlin, the gathering will bring together worship leaders from across the country to provide space to be in the presence of God without the constraints of leading others, focused teaching and spiritual challenge for purpose, power and clarity for all who attend. In addition to Redman, Nathan & Christy Nockels, Kristian Stanfill, Crowder and others from the Passion Band will lead the worship leader collective.
