Album Review: MercyMe's "Welcome to the New"

This week we are taking a look at MercyMe's album "Welcome to the New". This is a new type of post I haven't done before, but if it is successful, then I will do some more! So let's rewind to about a year ago.


So, we were going to the state fair that summer. Sounded cool. We were going to see Hillsong Young and Free and MercyMe. I was pretty excited for Young and Free, but I had never really listened to MercyMe. Sure, I'd heard of them, but I had really only heard a few songs, and I didn't really like them that much. But when we were walking out after the concert, I was blown away. They were awesome! Their lead singer, Bart, was really funny, and their music was really good! So, when we got home, I started to listen to some of their other albums and music, and this new album was really a step up from the others. Now, "Welcome to the New" is one of my favorite albums. Now, before I begin the rankings, I just want to say: Just because some songs are at the bottom of the list, doesn't mean I don't like them! Usually, when you get an album, there are at least one or two songs that you just don't like. This is one of the rare albums that I really like all of them!


So, here are the songs, with my favorites at the top and least favorites at the bottom.


1. Gotta Let it Go
--Love the instrumentation in this song!


2. Welcome to the New
--Great way to start the album. Pretty awesome!


3. Shake
--A really fun, catchy song!


4. Burn Baby Burn
--Talking about being the light of the world (burning). Another fun song!


5. New Lease on Life
--Singing about how we are changed in Christ.


6. Finish What He Started
--Great song with a great message. We must finish the work God began!


7. Greater
--I love the lyrics on this one! God is greater than anything in this world...


8. Flawless
--God is perfect, and he made us the same way through Christ's death.


9. Dear Younger Me
--Very thought provoking...


10. Wishful Thinking
--It's not about us!


Have you heard the album? What do you think of my rankings?  Do you agree? If not, what do you think they should be? Share your thoughts in the comments!
