Recorded in Ireland amidst 5,000 women united in faith, this disc captures 64 minutes of potent, flowing p&w, led by the distinct, soaring vocals of Geraldine Latty and the excellent new Focusfest band. Music styles vary wonderfully, from the traditional hymn (or two) to rousing gospel; from contemporary sounds - including a couple of Vineyard UK takes and one from each of Martin Smith and Stu Garrard's pens! - to some beautifully tender Celtic moments; as when Maire Brennan (and the Solus choir) guests on "O Jesus Friend Unfailing" and when Kristyn Lennox renders her own "Morning Star". Other standout tracks are the upbeat Kendrick "Far And Near" interpretation and the piano-based devotion of "Forgiven". Sincere worship, top rate production... fine album!

I have been blessed ever since I bought this album back in Nigeria. It appears difficult to get in most online stores that I've visited. How can I get it to buy?
