Revelation is the ninth studio album by the Christian rock band Third Day, released on July 29, 2008 by Essential Records/Provident Music. Starting with this release and in subsequent releases, Third Day became a four-piece band as original guitarist Brad Avery left the band but was an additional musician on this release. For Revelation, Third Day worked with producer Howard Benson, who is a two-time Grammy nominee for Producer of the Year, Non-Classical and has produced mainstream acts like Kelly Clarkson, The All-American Rejects, Santana and Seether and has produced some Christian rock acts like Skillet, P.O.D. and Flyleaf. The band aimed to produce a southern rock album while being creative musically; Third Day felt the result was their best album to date. As a whole, the album is noted as adopting a heavier and edgier rock sound than Third Day's previous adult contemporary-projects such as Wherever You Are, while the album's lyrics reflect Christian themes. The album features guest appearances from Daughtry lead singer and American Idol finalist Chris Daughtry, Lacey Mosley of Flyleaf (on two tracks) and pedal steel guitarist Robert Randolph. Benson decided to work with Third Day after Daughtry drew attention to lead singer Mac Powell's vocal ability. Although they were initially uncomfortable working with Benson, Third Day achieved a positive working relationship with Benson, who felt that their different religious beliefs (Benson is Jewish) made them challenge each other in a way reflected in the record. Revelation was preceded by its lead single "Call My Name." Lyrically, it has been alternately described as being set from the perspective of God or being a cry out to God. It was released to both Christian CHR and AC radio formats and it became an immediate hit topping both Billboard and Radio & Records Christian music charts. It was the band's second multi-format hit since "Cry Out to Jesus." The title track was the second single released and topped the Christian AC chart on both publications, while peaking at number 3 on the Billboard Hot Christian Songs and Christian Airplay charts and making the Top 10 on the Radio & Records Christian Inspo chart. Released concurrently was "Run to You" peaking in the Top 10 on R&R's Christian CHR chart while peaking at number 30 on the Billboard Hot Christian Songs and Christian Airplay charts. The final single "Born Again" peaked in the Top 5 on the Billboard Christian charts and peaked at number 41 on the Billboard Heatseekers Songs. Revelation became Third Day's fourth number one album on the Billboard Top Christian Albums chart and debuted and peaked at number 6 on the Billboard 200 Albums chart. It is Third Day's highest charting album on the latter chart and at their highest position to date during their career. The album sold 75,000 copies in its first week, besting their number 8 peak of Wherever You Are which sold 63,000 copies in its first week. The album also charted and peaked on the following Billboard album charts: -#2 Rock Albums -#6 Digital Albums -#3 Top Catalog Albums in 2011 Third Day earned accolades for this release including their only American Music Award win for Favorite Christian Inspirational Artist in the fall of 2008 and in 2009, they won Pop/Contemporary Album of the Year at the 40th GMA Dove Awards. The album cover won Recorded Music Packaging of the Year awarded to the art designers and for photography. The album cover is of Salvation Mountain, a monument created by Leonard Knight located in Calipatria, California, with the song titles of Revelation composed on it, "to send [Third Day's] own message of God's love to the world." According to bassist Tai Anderson, the idea to use Salvation Mountain as the album cover art was Powell's idea. Revelation was Gold certified in 2010 by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) giving them their sixth Gold album. That same year, "Born Again" was nominated in two Grammy Gospel categories: Best Gospel Performance and Best Gospel Song. Track listing All songs written by Mac Powell, except where noted. 1.

Wherever You Are is the eighth studio album by the Christian rock band Third Day, released on November 1, 2005 by Essential Records/Provident Music. The band and well-known "go-to" producer Brown Bannister, each produced six tracks. Wherever You Are deals with some personal tragedies from among the band mates as they forged its finest work to date with a collection of material that ranges from raging rockers to contemplative worship songs. The release opens with the take-no-prisoners urgency of "Tunnel" and finds lead singer Mac Powell offering hope in the face of difficulty and backed by the driving guitar work of Brad Avery and Mark Lee. The first single, "Cry Out to Jesus," is a song Powell wrote after a heartbreaking tragedy that struck a family living in his neighborhood, who lost their young son around Christmastime. It serves as a raw emotional lifeline for people facing immense pain. The lyrics speak directly to those dealing with loneliness, grief, addiction and broken relationships and reminds listeners that their is hope for the hopeless and love for the broken heart. "Cry Out to Jesus" was immediate out-of-the-box hit on Christian radio and topped both Billboard and Radio & Records Christian music charts across the board. The second single "Mountain of God" was another immediate hit. The track centers heavily around the idea that spiritual growth requires enduring hardships. Lyrically, it's a confession about realizing you were never actually alone during your darkest moments, even when you felt broken, afraid, or lost. Powell co-wrote "Mountain of God" with Bannister. Like "Cry Out to Jesus," the track also topped the Christian music charts. Grammy winning vocalist Ashley Cleveland provided guest vocals. Wherever You Are debuted and peaked at the top of the Top Christian Albums chart and made it first Top 10 appearance on the Billboard 200 chart peaking at number 8. The album was Gold certified in 2006 and then a decade later was Platinum certified by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) for sales of a million copies. It is the band's second and final Platinum selling studio release since Offerings. "Cry Out to Jesus" is the band's first Gold certified single selling half a million downloads in 2018. In 2006, "Cry Out to Jesus" won Third Day Pop/Contemporary Recorded Song of the Year at the 37th GMA Dove Awards and in 2007, the band won their third Grammy Award for Best Pop/Contemporary Gospel Album at the 49th Grammy Awards. Some later editions of Wherever You Are were later released. A box edition containing three CDs with different cover artwork but with the same track listing and a 2-disc special edition contains a bonus disc with three bonus tracks including a remix recording of "Cry Out to Jesus." The insert is different than the original, showing the band on a hillside and the photo is green tinged. You can listen to the exclusive bonus tracks further below this article.

Kathleen Troccoli (born June 24, 1958) is an American contemporary Christian music singer, songwriter, author, and speaker. She is best known for her husky-voiced alto. Born in Brooklyn, New York, Troccoli was raised in Islip Terrace, Long Island, New York where she graduated from East Islip High School. Her father died of colon cancer when she was 15. After graduating from high school, Troccoli studied jazz and opera at the Berklee College of Music in Boston for a year, then returned to Long Island to major in voice at Suffolk County Community College (SCCC) also singing with a SCCC-based jazz band and later singing in Long Island clubs. In the summer of 1978, Troccoli formed a friendship with a born again Christian co-worker while attending college; this led to Troccoli herself becoming a devout Christian. Troccoli was raised in a Catholic family, which was not particularly religious. As of 1998, she was a practicing Roman Catholic, but currently identifies as a non-denominational Christian. Troccoli's alto voice gained prominence when she opened for Ed Nalle's group, GLAD, when the group performed at the Long Island church Troccoli attended in 1980. Approximately six months afterwards, Nalle invited Troccoli to record a demo tape, with his band's backing, and Kathy accepted. After she and GLAD had recorded it, the tape was submitted to Michael Blanton and Dan Harrell (Amy Grant's brother-in-law); these two, as a result of hearing it, formed the Reunion Records label, in Nashville, Tennessee, specifically to record Troccoli, and Troccoli herself, in turn, moved to Nashville to reside with Harrell and his family. Troccoli released her debut album Stubborn Love in 1982. Its title song climbed up to number two on the Christian music charts. Her second and third albums, Heart & Soul (1984) and Images (1986) earned her Grammy nominations. After the release of Images and her collaboration with GLAD with the 1987 Christian hit "All the World Should Know," Troccoli then withdrew from her musical career returning to Long Island for a five-year sojourn, giving singing lessons and sang at weddings. In 1989, Troccoli was prominently featured on the single "I'll Be Your Shelter," a Diane Warren-penned song which pop singer Taylor Dayne recorded for her album Can't Fight Fate. "I'll Be Your Shelter" became a Top Ten single in 1990. At the same time, Troccoli was also caring for her mother who was in ill health. Troccoli's mother died of breast cancer in 1991. After her mother's death, Troccoli returned to the Reunion Records label in 1991 for her secular album debut, Pure Attraction. Her first mainstream success was the Billboard Top 20 hit "Everything Changes," written by Warren. "Everything Changes" also did well on the Christian radio charts. Prior to "Everything Changes," Troccoli had her first two number one songs on the Christian radio charts with "Love Was Never Meant to Die" and "Help Myself to You." Troccoli released her self-titled follow-up album Kathy Troccoli in 1994, Sounds of Heaven in 1995 and in 1996 was a featured singer on The Beach Boys collaborative album Stars and Stripes Vol. 1 singing "I Can Hear Music." Love & Mercy was released in 1997. The track "A Baby's Prayer" won Troccoli her first two Dove Awards as an artist and a songwriter that she co-wrote for Inspirational Recorded Song of the Year. Corner of Eden was released in 1998 and won her another Dove Award for Inspirational Album of the Year. Troccoli collaborated with multi-award winning artist Sandi Patty with the album Together and her first Christmas album A Sentimental Christmas, both in 1999. Troccoli continued to release albums throughout the 2000s and 2010s. A new album entitled The Legacy of You was released on December 1, 2023. Troccoli will release a new album entitled Yacht Rock Jazz featuring covers of soft rock songs but with a jazz twist in August 2026.

Wire is the seventh studio album by the Christian rock band Third Day, released on May 4, 2004 by Essential Records/Provident Music. The album was produced by Paul Ebersold. Wire returned Third Day to their rock and roll roots and was largely carried by the energetic guitar riffs that pervade its songs, although the forceful lyrics also contribute significantly. The album's songs deal with numerous themes. "Wire," the title track, is a song about the pressure to succeed in modern society. "I Believe," "I Got a Feeling," "Innocent," and other tracks deal with sin, faith, and renewal from a Christian perspective. "Billy Brown" is a song that explores the readiness of people to follow and even idolize entertainment figures. Wire was preceded by two singles: "I Believe" was sent to Christian AC radio and "Come On Back to Me" to Christian CHR and Christian Rock formats. Both songs charted on Radio & Records in their respective Christian format charts and both songs went Top 5. It was a different story on the Billboard Christian music charts as "Come On Back to Me" peaked at number 21 on the Hot Christian Songs and Christian Airplay while "I Believe" topped at number 1 on the Christian AC Airplay chart and peaked at number 3 on the Hot Christian Songs and Christian Airplay. Their further single "You Are Mine," which explores themes of divine grace, human brokenness, and gratitude for Jesus Christ's sacrifice, was the band's first multi-format single on Radio & Records, charting on CHR, AC and Inspo, their first appearance on the latter chart. Wire debuted and peaked at number 12 on the Billboard 200 while it topped the Top Christian Albums chart. It is their first number one Top Christian Album title since Time. Third Day collected their fifth Gold certification for Wire by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) by the end of the year. In 2005, Third Day won their second Grammy Award for Best Rock Gospel Album at the 47th Grammy Awards and later won a Dove Award for Rock/Contemporary Album of the Year at the 36th GMA Dove Awards.

Come Together is the fifth studio album by the Christian rock band Third Day, released on November 6, 2001 by Essential Records/Provident Music. The album was produced by Monroe Jones. Released after the success of back-to back Gold sellers Time and Offerings, Third Day returns with Come Together with the title track released as the lead single. It was used as a tribute to 9/11 and gained significant airplay in both Christian Rock and Christian CHR radio stations. "Show Me Your Glory" was released to Christian AC radio as the lead single. Written by the band's guitarist Mark Lee and Marc Byrd (co-writer of "God of Wonders"), the song's lyrics draw direct inspiration from major biblical figures who experienced the overwhelming presence of God. Both tracks topped Radio and Records Christian music charts simultaneously with the title song on CHR and Rock and "Show Me Your Glory" on AC. "Show Me Your Glory" was listed at number 24 in 2006 from CCM Magazine's book The 100 Greatest Songs in Christian Music. "40 Days" draws heavily from the biblical significance of the number 40, which traditionally represents a defined period of testing, trial, and preparation, such as 40 days and nights of rain during the Noah's ark narrative and Jesus' 40 days and nights spent fasting in the desert while being tempted in the wilderness by Satan. The album closer "Nothing Compares," according to lead singer Mac Powell, who also wrote it, was directly inspired by the Apostle Paul's words in Philippians 3:7-11. In that scripture, Paul explains that all of his earthly achievements, riches, and status are completely worthless when measured against the "surpassing value of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord." The song functions as a reminder that no material success, human accolade, or worldly experience can ever match the fulfillment found in a relationship with God. Come Together debuted and peaked at number 3 on the Billboard Top Christian Albums and at number 31 on the Billboard 200 Albums charts. It gave Third Day their third Gold album by April 2002, less than six months after it was originally released. Third Day collected Dove Awards for the next two years for this project including winning Group of the Year in 2002 and 2003 consecutively. Also in 2003 after three previous Grammy nominations, the band won their first Grammy Award for Best Rock Gospel Album at the 45th Grammy Awards. Third Day also released their second live concert video on DVD in 2003 entitled Third Day Live in Concert: The Come Together Tour, which captures the group performing a mix of songs from this release, worship tracks and previous live favorites. The DVD menu also includes the making of the album, band commentary, interviews with the band and more. Track listing All songs written by Mac Powell, except where noted. 1.
