Jesus-centred songs on latest Leeland album
THE GRAMMY-nominated worship group Leeland are set to release their first full-length live worship album, 'Better Word', on 13th September. A single from the project, "Way Maker", is available now. Talking about the album's theme frontman Leeland Mooring said, "We usually don't start seeing a theme emerge until we're in that mode of finishing songs, but right in the thick of 'Better Word' we found that all of these songs weren't trying to be anything. They were simple, easy to sing, and the lyrical themes were either about Jesus and his goodness, or songs of faith that challenge us to lift our eyes off of our circumstances and onto the face of Jesus. I really feel like it's a returning back to the things Leeland did at first."
