The New Hymn Makers - Stuart Townend: The Power of the Cross

Kingsway have just released a new Hymn Makers album - the second volume of my songs. Following on from "How deep the Father's love", released in 2003, the new album - "The power of the cross" - features the vocal talents of the St Michael's Singers (under the direction of Paul Leddington Wright) performing in the beautiful acoustics of Coventry Cathedral.

The sound is traditional - unison, four part harmony and solo singing to organ accompaniment - and once again the choral arrangements are of the highest class. Perfect for those who prefer the worshipful sound of classical voices in a traditional setting to the more contemporary sound prevalent on recordings today.

Track listing: Resurrection hymn; Joy has dawned; O Church arise; The power of the cross; My heart is filled with thankfulness; Communion hymn; Speak, O Lord; Glory be to God; Jesus is Lord; Fullness of grace; There is a hope; Puritan prayer
