I suppose the difficulty for Kingsway is that having the market leader in contemporary worship songbooks with 'Songs Of Fellowship' they're hard pressed to come up with a new volume which will persuade whole churches, or even individual worship leaders, to replace their road-tested SOF with a new songbook. Power Praise 3 contains 189 songs from Brits such as Kendrick, Bilbrough, Richards and a smattering of American choruses largely from Vineyard. Plus there's a few evergreen hymns. I took a random test of 20 songs from Power Praise 3 and found 15 of them in my Songs Of Fellowship. I suspect it will be a hard push to get large numbers of worshippers to make the change.
