Elim Sound are building up quite a reputation in the UK bringing together worship leaders and songwriters from the Elim movement. This collection brings 15 songs written by 19 writers! In addition there are new voices not featured on previous albums including Alex Davis and Nathan Jess. The result is a very diverse collection of worship songs. The opener title track is a fairly standard worship release performance but by track two , "We Say Yes" featuring Noel Robinson, brings a very contemporary chart friendly feel. Others such as "Still God" is a beautiful heartfelt, honest cry out to God and "New" with Sam Blake has a strong dance feel. Sadly, the collection isn't distinctive enough alongside other similar worship projects continuing to flood the scene, for example songs such as "Grace Will Lead Us Home", which despite a great vocal performance from Fiona Crow, does not offer anything new. There are some good songs here however.
