An album capturing the atmosphere of rich worship from the New Word Alive 2009 event which was held near Pwllheli in North Wales last April. This album features some of the best modern hymn writers Keith and Kristyn Getty and Stuart Townend who with Phatfish's Lou Fellingham here lead a range of songs old and new. The album opens with "Praise To The Lord" and finishes with a great version of "Before The Throne Of God Above" and also features songs from Keith and Kristyn's new album 'Awaken The Dawn'. All four worship leaders carry an authority that is respected throughout the UK Church and if you're looking for worship music that is modern in outlook without being swamped in electric embellishments, this stirring set will fit your needs very well.
