In all honesty I cannot get enthusiastic about this CD. For many this type of music inspires worship, but for me it inspires sleep. It is described on the cover as "a vibrant and joyous environment of praise and worship", led by familiar names such as Graham Kendrick, Johnny Markin and Chris Bowater, but on the whole I found it to be rather predictable and uncreative with nothing to separate it from the other six zillion similar sounding praise albums that can be found in ample supply in any Christian bookshop you care to mention. I noticed Sue Rinaldi's name on one song but I couldn't distinguish her voice from the others. The monotony was momentarily lifted by John Perry on "Sweeter Than The Spring", who showed considerable style, and by the sweet, clear vocals of ex-Heartbeat's Trish Morgan on "Where Can I Go From Your Spirit", but not enough, unfortunately, to convert me.
