Extravagant Worship: The Songs of Reuben Morgan is a compilation praise and worship album of contemporary worship music by the Hillsong Church. Cross Rhythms reviewer John Baugh wonder "why this collection needs to be released apart from 'If you liked ... then you will like ... '", but concluded that apart from that minor complaint, "the album itself is of course great if somewhat unsurprising". [1]
