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.

Uncreated One
Chris Tomlin Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Your beauty fills the skies
But the glory of Your majesty
Is the mercy in Your eyes
And worthy uncreated one
From heaven to earth come down
You laid aside Your royalty
And O great God be glorified
Our lives laid down, Yours magnified
And O great God be lifted high
There is none like You
Jesus, Savior, God's own son
Risen, reigning Lord
Sustainer of the Universe
By the power of Your word
And O great God be glorified
Our lives laid down, Yours magnified
And O great God be lifted high
There is none like You
There is none like You
There is none like You
And when we see Your matchless face
In speechless awe we'll stand
And there we'll bow with grateful hearts
Until the great I am
O great God be glorified
Our lives laid down, Yours magnified
O great God be lifted high
There is none like You
There is none like You
There is none like You
The song "Uncreated One" by Chris Tomlin is a beautiful song that both praises and worships God. The first verse praises God's beauty and describes how it can be seen in the skies. However, the second line of the verse is even more meaningful, as it describes how the mercy of God is what truly sets Him apart. The second verse is even more meaningful as it speaks to the sacrifice of Jesus, who was "worthy uncreated one." Jesus was fully divine, but He came to earth and took on the form of a human, bearing the weight of sin on His shoulders.
The chorus of the song, "O great God be glorified, our lives laid down, Yours magnified, and O great God be lifted high, there is none like You," speaks to the idea that our purpose in life is to glorify God. The bridge speaks to the idea that one day we will see God face-to-face, and we will be in speechless awe of His greatness. The song is ultimately a call to worship, to recognize the greatness of God, and to lay down our own lives in service to Him.
