Veteran Chris hangs up his rock and roll shoes (for this release only I would add) and gives his supporters what they've been asking for some time, a collection of the best of his slower, gentler, more worshipful songs. Chris puts together arrangements that nimbly overcome limitations of budget and shows unerring ability to craft tuneful songs of devotion that rise easily above others' more expensively recorded material. Standouts are the title track and the haunting "Gloria Deo" which Chris reports came about while he was re-reading Augustine's Confessions. Recommended to all those familiar with Betts ministry and those still to be introduced to it.
