Hail to the King is the fourth album by Hillsong London. It features thirteen brand new songs led by Worship Pastor Peter Wilson, two of which were co-written with Grammy Award winner Israel Houghton.
Jared Johnson of AllMusic described the album as "straightforward Brit arena rock that envelopes worshipers in intense praise."[1] He continued on to say that "The album effectively has two polar halves, the first being the rocking, strap-you-to-your-seat section, which gives way to a reverent, slow-building second half."[1] Lins Honeyman of Cross Rhythms wrote that "Whilst this is very much a no frills affair (biographies, powerpoints and the like are not included), the disc does contain a wide variety of sheet music including notation for piano, guitar, drums and bass as well as overhead transparencies and rich text lyric versions of the songs featured on the album proper."[2]
