   About Jon Abel


Texas-based Worship Leader/Artist Jon Abel never dreamed of "doing music" for a living. His mom and dad surprised him with a guitar for his high school graduation so this was an unlikely forecast for Jon's life. Fast-forward a few God-directed years and in addition to playing events/concerts nation-wide, Jon leads worship on Sunday mornings at his home church, Highland Park Presbyterian’s 1105 gathering in Dallas. “In the context of this community is where I get refueled and sent out to go and do what I do,” Abel says. “Community is where life was meant to be lived so i'm very fortunate to have a home base of family and friends that support me and what I do.”

A writer with Nashville's Universal/Brentwood Benson Music, Jon’s song “Awesome Is The Lord Most High”(entitled “Most High” on Jon’s More Than This album) was recently covered on both the Passion:Everything Glorious CD and Chris Tomlin’s two-time Grammy nominated and Gold-selling See The Morning album.

Partnering again with producer/artist Cary Pierce and with songs co-written with Cary, Brandon Heath, Chad Cates, Chris Tomlin, Don Chaffer, and Jeff Johnson, Jon’s new album, Back To You(2007), was written with a “vertical” goal in mind; for the Church to sing in worship. With the same pop/rock feel as More Than This, this is Jon at his best, doing what he was made to do.

Chord Charts for these new songs are available now at greatworshipsongs.com.

Jon, I listen to the entire Back to You album at least 3 times every day. It's so encouraging and always puts me in a good mood.
Thank you so much for leading worship at FITS and being a positive example for everyone.

-Mollie

P.S. I'm going to talk to the worship director at my church and try and get them to do some of your songs in big church. I'm pretty excited =)
