Though hardly a household name in contemporary worship circles, Leann Albrecht has sung on over 75 Integrity discs alone, as well as appearing on loads of other projects, such as those of Women Of Faith, Amy Grant, CeCe Winans and Steven Curtis Chapman, just to name a few. Clearly, she's widely known for her beautiful melodic voice. Leann's belated solo debut sees the session-seasoned vocalist deliver 11 soft pop worship songs, all recently penned by self along with husband Carl (a well established percussionist who has played on even more Integrity projects than his wife!). The songs are pleasant and tender, refreshing to the soul and offering a sweet fragrance of worship to the Lord. Leann's voice in itself is caressing and comforting. But the songs, although enjoyable enough, aren't particularly memorable - they wash over you, then drop from your mind pretty quickly. Admittedly, repeated listening helps and perhaps if you listened often enough, these tunes would grow on you.

Product Description
'Songs of Intimate Worship' has all new songs that will inspire you. Songs like 'Til’ The Answer Comes' with lyrics that encourage you to keep believing for your miracle; the 'Great Defender' speaks of truth that will bring peace because of your unseen Protector, and 'My First Love' will escort you new realms of intimacy with your Maker.
Although the name might not be readily familiar, the voice most certainly is. Leann has sung on hundreds of albums in the past 20 years. She has performed on over 75 Integrity Worship albums alone, making her the voice of favourites like 'I Worship You',' But for Your Grace' and 'In the Arms of His Love'.
The daughter of a preacher, Leann has been touring and singing since she was 14. At the age of 20 she embarked on her first world tour and then shortly thereafter began recording sessions for albums and commercials.
She has recorded on projects such as Women of Faith, John Tesh, Amy Grant, CeCe Winans, Steven Curtis Chapman and Avalon, just to name a few. She has also performed with artists such as Michael W. Smith, Darlene Zschech, Don Moen, Matthew Ward, Kim Hill, Ron Kenoly, and Twila Paris.
