See the Morning

See the Morning is an album that was released on September 26, 2006 by Chris Tomlin. The title comes from that idea that "our God is as faithful as the rising sun" and is the "Light of the World".[4] The album was originally released in two versions: one with 11 tracks, the other with 4 alternate versions of his songs (including acoustic and demo versions) and a special behind-the-scenes look at the recording of the album. Since then, another version, the tour edition, has been released, which features the standard version, along with music/live videos, along with a sermon by Louie Giglio titled "How Great is Our God". The first single from the album was "Made to Worship", which was first heard as an iTunes bonus track for the Passion album Everything Glorious.
