Stuart Forsyth is a youth worker with the Church of Scotland in Ayr. This recording contains two original songs that nod in the direction of Aztec Camera, and a cover of "Amazing Grace". The latter has a new melody and is sung a cappella with layered treated vocals. The originals - the title track and "Mighty God" - may not have big budget production but they're more than decent for a demo. If they have a weakness it's the use of charismatic clichés and biblical quotations that will only make sense to the initiated. Other than that, Stuart shows great promise for the future in the youth worship field.
