Matt Redman is due to release 'The Father's Song' on 19th May

EXCITEMENT is mounting in expectation of the new album by Britain's best selling worship leader Matt Redman. The album, working title The Father's Song will be released by Kingsway on the 19th May. Talking to Christian Herald about the album, Matt said, One theme coming up is justice and mercy - God's been showing us that we should have a heart for the poor and do something about it. Also, there's the theme of the Father's heart and a song called The Father's Song from Zephaniah 3:17.
Talking about the Soul Survivor - The Message 2000 mission in Manchester the singer/songwriter continued, We feel that worship and evangelism can't be separated through Scripture, and in practice we've seen them go hand in hand. So I've been writing songs that are real worship songs, but, hopefully, will be accessible to those who don't know Jesus - a real challenge. The whole thing's quite frightening, but I think it'll be fantastic to go up there and go all out to proclaim Jesus.
O An in depth interview with Matt Redman will appear in the next Cross Rhythms.
