This CD songbook compiles music from five recent Hosanna! releases including those of Michael Neale and Robin Mark. The sheet music (with chords) of 76 songs is clearly presented in Adobe Acrobat. The arrangements reflect those on the original recordings but the piano music is mercifully simplified. Songs are helpfully sorted in five different indexes by: first line, key/tempo/time signature, theme, Bible reference and copyright owner. Possible medleys are suggested at the foot of each song. Matt and Beth Redman's "Blessed Be Your Name" is the only song to appear more than once: in three different arrangements and in two different keys. Often, by the time songs have become popular, and materials like this have been released, it is time to rest them and move on to others. Even so, worship leaders who favour music from the Hosanna! stable should find this to be a convenient resource.
