Here's the other Hillsong video I promised. Sorry I haven't had time to do anything else lately but I'm finishing school in May so I should be able to some more stuff. I mixed this song first so it has a different eq setting than the other video. I personally liked the other settings but I don't have my interface here at school and I rather not wait to go home to change something.
And a reminder, I don't tolerate comments bashing the song or other people. These are MY videos and I can delete/block whatever and whoever I want.
Oh, and one more thing, I don't really have time to respond to commentsmessages. I do read them but I generally don't answer. Most of the questions I get have answers on my channel.

People responded to your rendition 8-9 years ago, but I'm hear to tell you it's still valid because you did a great job. I memorized this song a little less than a year ago, and with the helpof the Holy Spirit, did a pretty fair job. It's come up in rotation again, but I only have 1 day to practice. Thanks and I'll be subscribing!

Ive been watching this guy play for a good year or so, and i personally think he is fantastic, never knowing he was legally blind. But in all honesty, it just makes him even better! Your a big inspiration dude, not only in your playing, but also in being one of the few drummers on youtube who shamelessly posts christian drum videos. God bless.

[@AznKenshin]

my church started playing this quite frequently. great cover. Let His Name be praised through this cover

[@jasonbrubacher2532]

I play for youth and you just saved me from embarrassing myself thanks a lot

[@nathanh2705]

[@dougmcclellan9744]

And I just THOUGHT I came up with a really good way to modify the drum part of this song from the original, but your version just floored me! Will be copycatting you this Sunday! Very, VERY nice interpretation - and thanks! Great skills, brother!

[@AustinPetDetective]

Thanks for this video Chris, great dynamics and touch. God has blessed you with a great talent.

Fabulous playing.

[@terryslater740]

chris'; i love your drumming; i m a fan of yours; keep up the good drumming bud; terry

[@vmipsychmajor]

I just want to thank you for spoiling me with this version of the drums on this song. Not sure any other version -- the ones that keep popping up on my Pandora stations -- captures it quite so well... :-)

[@pleite567]

amazing, just amazing

[@matman142]

your snare sounds awesome!!!

[@allstar1945]

Well performed! NICE WORK

[@biblegirl4eternity2]

thanks for uploading this!! :D now i am going to try and play this on my drum set!! :)

[@miljaneaques2651]

Nice one✌✌

[@jazryllguillermo3432]

I love your cover, it's clean!

[@jeremymcnicholas2240]

Nice flow... very good cover! Thanx

[@lemmyade]

Thanks for this mate. Had a hard time figuring out the tom parts til I saw how you were playing them. Turns out I was overcomplicating the process quite a bit.

[@itsDarrell]

man, that ride is beautiful looking AND sounding.. I had a 20" K dark ride once..

[@DanThiele]

Great job. Love your style!

[@nuphi90]

Dude nice very nice job. I dug it

[@ChristisAliveForever]

Awesome video, man. Keep praising God with your talent. I am a drummer in my church's Youth Praise Band and I was wondering if your every considered doing covers of a band called Casting Crowns' songs.

[@moo_im_a_cow]

great cover bro, keep up the drumming

[@lightforhim]

i am a little confused as to the no ride comments. Yes Hillsong does alot of washride but knowing cymbals, the fact that you are riding on a (what appears to be) 17in K Custom Hybrid is pretty acceptable. While I personally would not go smaller than a 18in crash for that K Rides as stated are not made for wash riding. Great cover! I just hate it when ignorant people make stupid comments. It shows when you compare skill levels Just found you on KZbin. Great quality videos. Keep it up!

[@andrewcarlson1308]

Great cover!

[@renatomignogna6895]

Thanks Chris - this is great!!

[@ministerioemanuel]

very, very, very good!!!!

[@TheRealMrBeard]

You're awesome bro! Blessing!

[@levilozano6913]

Sounds Great!

[@thibcool2]

It's really beautiful!

[@Solidsnake562leon]

Love that set man :)

[@2297monika]

I love it! :)))) Great job..

[@willdavid6697]

Nice job!!

[@trainid4037]

Thankyou for taking the time to learn these worship songs,,,and sharing them with us, U make my playing easier to learn. Keep up the good work. I have to add a bass drum or high hat chip so that others can keep in time as we play live with no click track. Do you find yourself adding a simple 2/4 or 4/4 bass drum or high hat part to help keep everyone in time when you play live?...

[@pcceagle15]

Nice!! I really like this video. I'm still trying to figure out how to loosen up when playing

[@Moser1010]

Amazing!

[@iamjeffhong]

Can you cover The Father's Heart by any chance? Thanks for the covers man, praise God!

[@mindiwest]

Perfect! Thank you so much for this.

[@juanarriaga9223]

Great work man.. :)

[@barbiebrezzi1087]

You're a genius!!

[@paramoreisbestband]

Awesome!

[@jdallassword]

Nice Job!

[@chrisstanleydrums]

@romodrummerjz I'm not blind as in I can't see at all. I'd say it's reduced vision so things aren't big enough so I can read at normal distances. I always get close to things to read. If you met me, you'd not know I was partially blind. Was born like this so I adapted to it.

[@viajandobarat0]

Que hermoso suenan esos platillos..

[@n8bolton]

Awesome! Earned yourself another subscriber.

[@xcelpast]

[@FLATSTONE]

[@nolimetanghari]

[@Dansonlof]

[@MattuDrumms]

God Bless you

[@notdescribed]

What are cymbal and drum head specs? Brand and sizes(: Great video man God Bless you,

[@damienparent4415]

Chris what's the setup on the snare? Sounds awesome! Also your 2 crash cymbals, sounds great. Like to get another acoustic set and like your sound

[@27pageboy]

awesome !!!!!! you should do a cover of a song Saturate by Breaking Benjamin. Some people call it Forever but idk lol.

[@drummerJunJun]

i think the floor tom should be played in quick fours at the beginning. but that tom fill was awesome too.🙂

[@francoojedaazocar7484]

De verdad que tu video es un gran aporte para la obra de Dios muchas Gracias (: BEDICIONES

[@kbreloaded]

Cool song and cool drum cover! ;) But got a question: Would you play this also so for worship in a church? thx

[@xXeRRoRXz]

Great job!! I was just wondering, what kind of symbols were you using?

[@ericpeterson9336]

Thanks Chris....not a drummer....musically inclined .........(music director) ..."can you play tomorrow?" .... I mean what do you say? it's not about me right? ...this helps greatly.... Thanks Brother

[@AsaphAce]

How did you record the audio bro? it sounds so nice and i dont see any close mics... just some Over Heads and a kick drum mic?

[@Big30MasterShake]

cool dude

[@NOLLIDization]

So many Drums, So little time! D:

[@felixthomas5474]

excellent tutorial .. A little question what name are these cymbals

[@TEJGames21]

Just wondering if you meant "I don't tolerate" Instead of saying that you do tolerate comments bashing the song. :P Great cover though, I really enjoy watching your stuff.

[@amauriscorderoespiritusant9450]

god bless you

[@SauloASFS]

well i dont believe in god...or religion...or church... but i have to say that you did a great job with this song
