Person Name: McCann Author of "God of This City " in Lift Up Your Hearts Member of the band Bluetree. Bluetree is a contemporary Christian band from Northern Ireland. The band originated in Strandtown Christian Fellowship Church in 2004. Lead singer Aaron Boyd, claims it started out of frustration – “I was frustrated with the idea that worship is only to do with your heart. I don’t really agree with that. It’s bigger than just your heart attitude towards something. Like the idea that music can be secondary and as long as you love Jesus, that’s fine! I don’t think that’s right.” The band’s debut album, Great Things, was released in 2007, and its second studio album, Kingdom, was released in 2012. The band has a heart for social justice, and launched its charity “Stand Out International” in 2009, an organization that rescues kids from the sex industry. The band’s hit song, “God of this City” was nominated for a Dove Award in 2009. Laura de Jong
