America's longest running praise series which has got better down the years. Not only are they excellent songs, from the joyful mid-tempo "I Will Celebrate" opener to the beautiful "Great Hope" closer these songs are outstanding and eschew any idea of simply being some conveyer belt of Scripture song clichés, but using top quality lead vocalists (including on this set Lenny Le Blanc, Rita Baloche and, Terry Clark) to bring out the songs quality as well as the tried-and-tested Maranatha Singers chorus, you have a winning combination. Praise and worship albums don't have to be anonymous muzak, the Praise albums set standards few others get near to.
