Here we go. It's time for the Worship Team Region.
#1 How He Loves VS #8 After All (Holy)
After All is a really great song. It's easily one of the best tracks from the final CD. But it's not much of a contest in comparison to How He Loves. This is one of those worship songs that just lasts and will still be around in solid rotation 10 years from now.

#2 O Praise Him (All This For A King) VS #7 Let Me Feel You Shine
This is another one that just isn't all that close. Despite both tracks being excellent, and despite Let Me Feel You Shine being a great lead single for the final disc, it doesn't hold a candle to what is arguably the definitive song of Crowder's career.

#3 Here Is Our King VS #6 Fall On Your Knees
So many good songs are in this region. It's hard to watch these ones fall. Ultimately, though, the goal is to find "the essential" Crowder songs. And, as great as Fall on Your Knees is, I can't see an essential Crowder list that doesn't include Here Is Our King. It just doesn't happen.

#4 SMS (Shine) VS #12 O, For A Thousand Tongues To Sing
Shine is perhaps one of the more underrated songs of Crowder's career. O, For A Thousand Tongues To Sing is a great show of DCB's ability to take an old hymn, update, and make it great. So what's the difference? Ultimately, the video done for Shine took it to a whole different level. It's a big advantage that helps push it forward in the tournament.

So no upsets this time around. Perhaps there will be some in the Part 4, the Acoustic Region. Either way, four more songs have made it to the list. We will get the final four next time. For now, here is the updated bracket.
