Spoken For
, a fresh blend of rock-infused worship that shows MercyMe’s growth spiritually and as songwriters. “Going in we wanted to broaden our definition of worship a bit,” explains Millard. “In our indie days, the formula was ‘a verse and chorus and it’s got to fit on a church overhead.’ There are songs on Spoken For
that might not be the easiest to sing along to, but we hope it will be a worship experience from beginning to end.”

“The idea behind the title track is pretty simple, but it sets off the whole album,” Millard says. “We take for granted that there is going to be a day when we stand before the judgment seat and are held accountable, and if we know Christ, God himself will step forward and say, ‘he’s with me’ or ‘she’s with me.’ ‘Their hearts are spoken for. They’re covered.’ That should blow our minds, and we wanted this album to reflect how grateful we need to be that God ever looked our way. If somebody listens to the album and walks away a more grateful person then we’ve accomplished what we’ve been called to do.”
