The Dove Award for Worship Album of the Year is presented by the Gospel Music Association of the United States. The category was first introduced as Praise and Worship Album of the Year at the 12th GMA Dove Awards in 1981, and since then is presented annually. Worship Album of the Year is presented to the artist (if prominent on the album) and the producer (if other than the artist).
