Part of our annual songwriting competition for Worship The Rock is that the top 12 winning songs get put on a compilation album. This is the top 6 from the Praise & Worship category as well as the top 6 from the Contemporary Christian category.

The 2019 contest was a little behind the normal schedule, but the compliation is finally here and ready for you to check it out! This year's compilation contains a wide variety of styles, and it's all great music for you to either incorporate into your church services or just to encourage you personally.

You can listen to the whole album on Spotify, and also download/stream on popular resources like Apple Music, iTunes, YouTube, Google Play and more! Support your fellow worship leaders and WTR by streaming and purchasing the album, and be sure to spread the word via social media and however else you can!

The songs on the album are ordered based on the overall scores received in the contest, with the two categories put together. Here is what you'll find on the Volume 3 compilation:
