Another of the eight-song CDs in Integrity's budget line series, this was harder to get into than some of the others simply because some of the songs are less well known. It was much slower than some of the albums in the 'Great Songs Of Praise' series but on the other hand more emotive. Debbye Graafsma singing "To Him Who Sits On The Throne" is just wow! Again, this finishes with a brilliantly done medley of "My Help Comes From The Lord" and "Mighty Is Our God". This sets the tone for the rest of the day. As far as I am concerned, this album is well worth buying by any aspiring or newly promoted worship leaders.
Also reviewed in CR27:
Another in Integrity Music's budget line series where staff producers turn in eight recordings of popular worship songs. This begins with two fast, lively worship songs, "Celebrate Jesus" and "Lift Him Up". There's an (uncredited) contribution from Ron Kenoly and some great vocals from Debbie Graafsma, singing "To Him Who Sits On The Throne". A medley of "My Help Comes From The Lord" and "Mighty Is Our God" is a good finish to the album. If you've yet to catch up on the stream of quality releases by Integrity Music then this compilation and its 'Exalt His Name' sister volume are definitely worth buying.
