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 and God Alone
Chris Tomlin Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
One anthem raised
God and God alone
One cross, one grace
One name that saves
All praise to you belongs
We lift you higher, higher
God and God alone
Than any other song
You are forever seated on your throne
You are forever God and God alone
Who else can wash our sin away
God and God alone
Who else can raise us from the grave
All praise to you belongs
Jesus, all praise to you belongs
We lift you higher, higher
God and God alone
Your name be louder, louder
Than any other song
You are forever seated on your throne
You are forever God and God alone
And what could seperate us from this amazing love
What could say it's greater than our God
Every knee will bow down
Oh what could seperate us from this amazing love
What could say it's greather than our God
Every knee will bow down
Oh, every knee will bow down
We lift you higher, higher
God and God alone
Your name be louder, louder
Than any other song
You are forever seated on your throne
We lift you higher, higher
God and God alone
Your name be louder, louder
Than any other song
You are forever seated on your throne
You are forever God and God alone
And what could seperate from us from this amazing love
What could say it's greater than our God
Every knee will bow down
What could seperate us from your amazing love
What could say it's greather than our God
Every knee will bow down
Oh, every knee will bow down
Yes, every knee will bow down
Oh, every knee will bown down
The lyrics of Chris Tomlin's song "God and God Alone" glorify and praise God as the one true God, the name that saves, and the one who forgives sins and raises us from the dead. The phrase "God and God alone" is repeated throughout the song and emphasizes the exclusivity of God as the only one worthy of our worship and praise. The song also mentions the cross and the grace that God bestowed upon us through Jesus Christ's sacrifice.
The lyrics highlight the power and steadfastness of God, as they declare that He is forever seated on His throne and that every knee will bow down to Him. The song also acknowledges the amazing love that God has for us and questions what could possibly separate us from that love. The answer given is nothing, as nothing is greater than God and His love for us.
The message of the song is one of hope, assurance, and trust in God. It urges the listener to lift God higher and give Him all the praise and honor that He deserves. It also inspires the listener to live a life that reflects God's love and grace.
