This latest songbook includes songs from a further six albums in the Hosanna series, 'Chosen Treasure', 'All Nations Worship', 'Lift Him Up', 'Take The City', 'All Hail The Power' and 'He Is Faithful'. Like the previous songbooks there are helpful indices indicating key, tempo, topical and scripture references, all of which are very useful to the worship leader (or should be, if you are taking your craft seriously!). Not all the songs I believe are for the congregation but a good majority are and it's good to back up the album series with these songbook resources. Some great songs including "Lord I Lift Your Name On High" by Rick Founds, "We Give Thanks" and "Thank You For The Cross" by Mark Altrogge and "Lord We Long For You" which is by English writers (Morgan, Goudie, Townend and Bankhead) which is good to see! I checked to find out from Integrity that you can still get the individual booklet of each tape as soon as a new Hosanna Music tape is produced, but only if you are already a member of the Hosanna tape programme (or you can buy it mail order). However, if you are happy to wait you can obviously buy the whole songbook at a later stage for a better price pro-rata. Go for it is my advice.
