Gateway Worship began as the worship ministry of Gateway Church in Southlake, Texas, but its music has reached far beyond the walls of that local congregation. Through a growing collection of worship leaders, musicians, and songwriters, Gateway Worship has helped create songs that invite believers everywhere to lift their voices in praise and draw closer to God.
With a sound that ranges from powerful declarations of faith to intimate expressions of surrender, Gateway Worship has become known for music that is meant to be sung together. Many of its songs have found a home not only on Christian music playlists, but in churches and worship services around the world.
At the heart of Gateway Worship is a simple purpose: creating music that points people toward Jesus and gives the Church songs to sing. That purpose has shaped the ministry’s recordings for more than two decades and continues to make Gateway Worship an important part of the modern worship landscape.
