A very interesting 16-track album that is all Teresa's own work musically, with seven songs using Scripture from The Grail translation of the Psalms. Mostly recorded at Master Studios Manchester by Andy Summers, except for two tracks recorded at Mark One Audio in Rustiden by Andy Crawley (which explains the presence of Dave Clemo on the cast list), this covers all sorts of styles from up tempo to ballad to gentle worship, with some beautiful violin and viola from Teresa, and stout singing and playing from all concerned. Occasionally the words struggle to fit the tunes (always a problem when trying to set an existing lyric to music, rather than creating both together), but mostly this is very acceptable, impeccably recorded, played and sung, and worth investigation.
