In 2008, after five solo album releases, and nine with Passion, Tomlin made the move from Texas to Atlanta to be a worship leader for Giglio’s new church, Passion City Church, with its first service being held in February of 2009. Tomlin has since released four solo worship albums, two Christmas albums, and one live album.
In 2013, Tomlin’s seventh album Burning Light debuted at number one on the Billboard 200 albums chart, becoming only the fourth album by a Christian artist to top that chart, along with Butterfly Kisses (Shades of Grace) by Bob Carlisle, You Light Up My Life by LeeAnn Rimes, both in 1997, and TobyMac's Eye On It in 2012.
Tomlin has recorded some of the most famous songs ever in Christian music, such as How Great Is Our God, Holy Is The Lord, Our God, and Whom Shall I Fear (God of Angel Armies)
Throughout his successful career, Tomlin has won 22 GMA Dove Awards, two Billboard Music Awards, and a Grammy.

God's Great Dance Floor
Chris Tomlin Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Where you found me
I'm coming back to your heart
Now I surrender
Take me
This is all I can bring
I'm coming back to the start
In here we feel your heart
Your heartbeat for us
Take me
This is all I can bring
You'll never stop loving us
No matter how far we run
You'll never give up on us
All of heaven shouts let the future begin
Let the future begin
Take me
This is all I can bring
You'll never stop loving us
No matter how far we run
You'll never give up on us
All of heaven shouts let the future begin
Let the future begin
I feel alive, I come alive
I am alive on God's great dance floor
I feel alive, I come alive
I am alive on God's great dance floor
I feel alive, I come alive
I am alive on God's great dance floor
I feel alive, I come alive
I am alive on God's great dance floor
I feel alive, I come alive
I am alive on God's great dance floor
God's great dance floor
The lyrics "I'm coming back to the start, where you found me" suggest that the singer is returning to God, perhaps because they have strayed or lost their way. This theme of returning and surrendering to God continues throughout the song, with the repeated phrases "take me" and "this is all I can bring." The singer acknowledges their own limitations but expresses their desire to be with God and feel his love.
The lines "I got this freedom, in here we feel your heart, your heartbeat for us" suggest that in God's presence there is a feeling of freedom and a connection to his love. The reference to God's heartbeat for us represents his love and care for his people. The chorus speaks to the never-ending love of God, stating that he will never stop loving us or giving up on us, no matter how far we run.
The title of the song "God's Great Dance Floor" invokes a sense of joy and celebration, and the lyrics encourage the listener to feel alive and come alive on God's dance floor. This imagery suggests that life with God is not just about surrender and guidance, but also about joy, celebration, and freedom.

I re dedicated my life to Jesus.
Was going through a rough season and I was so mentally, spiritually and physically tired. Instead of holding onto Jesus, I wanted to be selfish and thought life would be better if I went back to my way’s before Christ.
Not only was life not better, I was ready to go.
Listen, I have been through sickness, abandonment, unloved. You name it, I have gone through a lot. Not just the past few years, but since I was a kid.
We are only here for a moment. Sometimes it feels like forever. But, hold on to Jesus and He will help you get through.
And just think then we get to spend eternity with our Lord Jesus Christ.
Please, if you feel like walking away from Jesus, if you feel like giving up,please find a fellow Christ believer for help.
If you feel all alone, please call out to Holy Spirit and ask that someone be placed in your path.

Praise Him with the sound of the trumpet;
Praise Him with the lute and harp!
Praise Him with the timbrel and dance;
Praise Him with stringed instruments and flutes!
Praise Him with loud cymbals;
Praise Him with clashing cymbals!
Let everything that has breath praise the Lord.
Praise the Lord!
(Chris tomlin all songs are so energetic)

My 13 year old sister has cancer, and Sunday I had gotten a call from my parents asking to gather all of my siblings to come and say our goodbyes… We prayed, we asked for a miracle, and here we are 5 days later and my sister has made a MIRACULOUS recovery and doctors are in AWE!❤God is Good!!!Amen 🙏

I've been on worship teams since 1972 and I am telling you, the worship music that God has blessed us with has never been better! It is my prayer that these young people take the joy and excitement of following Jesus out into the highways and byways to the people that have no hope and give them Jesus! The joy of the Lord is our strength!
