The Getty’s, Consider the Stars - a podcast by Bruce Davis
from 2020-12-04T00:12:11
“Consider the Stars”, a new song by the Getty’s captures the feelings and depth presented in the movie it was written for, Against the Tide. The movie is a travelogue documentary with host Kevin Sorbo interviewing Professor of Mathematics at Oxford, Dr. John Lennox. Dr. Lennox effectively debates many of the “new” atheists on considering the stars and their maker. And what ties all this together is this beautiful song is co-written and sung by Dr. Lenox’s niece, Kristyn.
Keith and Kristyn Getty occupy a unique space in the world of music today as preeminent modern hymn writers. In re-inventing the traditional hymn form, they have created a catalogue of songs teaching Christian doctrine and crossing the genres of traditional, classical, folk and contemporary composition which are sung the world over.
The Gettys' hymns are used increasingly both in contemporary and traditional circles, being included in most modern hymnbooks (with a number of these now listing “Getty” as the most-featured composers), while in the more contemporary church, more than 60 of their songs are featured on top 2,000 CCLI charts between the UK and USA.
