Sheffield-based worship leader and Spring Harvest regular Pete gets off to a promising start on his latest album with the dance-tinged "Prepare The Way" and the Sue Rinaldi co-write "All God's Children" - both of which praise God in upbeat fashion. Proceedings soon default to standard worship mode with the likes of the similarly-paced "God, You Are My God", "Upon This Rock", "Faith" and "Standing At The Cross" all employing the well-used technique of a quiet start followed by a slow pounding build that can be found on countless other modern worship albums. Elsewhere, a rewritten version of the old hymn "What A Friend We Have In Jesus" - complete with a new melody that unfortunately makes Joseph Scriven's lyrics sound like a run of the mill worship song - fails to make the grade but matters rally near the end with the anthemic "We're Coming Home" and the gorgeous song of reflection "Talk To Jesus" - both of which round off a competent enough release from Mr James.

Product Description
Energy and intimacy collide to produce eleven outstanding songs from lead worshipper Pete James in his follow up to the acclaimed My Heart Is Singing Loud.

Brand new, high-voltage declarations of praise in All God’s Children and Prepare The Way sit wonderfully with the tender, honest reflections of Upon This Rock and Talk To Jesus… and re-styled and re-imagined, the much-loved hymn What A Friend We Have In Jesus has already impacted thousands.

Each song on All Or Nothing carries a clear and striking message of commitment - exploring God’s love for the world and Pete’s devotion to follow Christ.
