Reviewed by Alan & Angeline Chesters

In reviewing this album I'm conscious that it will probably be an automatic entry into the Praise & Worship chart. Recorded in Anaheim, the first six songs are led by VCF Anaheim and the other six by VCF Kelowna, BC, Canada, totalling 70 minutes. I like the lyrics and guitar on "Crowns Down" ("We will seek no earthly titles... We lay our crowns down."). I was also moved by the spoken prayer at the end of the title track. There is always excellent musicianship and variety of arrangements. I feel that, for this series to continue its impact, it's got to improve. Words and music often seem to have been heard before. Though more of a minor point, I would also like, where appropriate, for there to be a scripture reference with the song titles on the leeve. I've not seen a Cross Rhythms article about Vineyard Music Group and would be interested to read more about the creation of these recordings. Even my limited experience of hearing excellent unpublished UK p&w songwriters suggests that it would be good for a record company to invite songs for album recording for widespread use, rather than just in the locality of the writer. Sorry, Vineyard and Kingsway, I believe that there are unpublished songs out there which are much better than TTFH 21.

Spirit of the Sovereign Lord
(Andy Park)

The Spirit of the Sovereign Lord is upon you
Because he has anointed you to preach good news
(Repeat)
He has sent you to the poor (This is the year)
To bind up the broken hearted (This is the day)
To bring freedom to the captives (This is the year)
And to release the ones in darkness

(This is the year) of the favour of the Lord
(This is the day) of the vengeance of our God
(This is the year) of the favour of the Lord
(This is the day) of the vengeance of our God

The Spirit of the Sovereign Lord is upon us
Because he has anointed us to preach good news
(Repeat)
He will comfort all who mourn (This is the year)
He will provide for those who grieve (This is the day)
He will pour out the oil of gladness (This is the year)
Instead of mourning you will praise

Spirit of the Soverign Lord is a beautiful song. A friend recently lent me an original c.d. with this song on it. Sung by Michael Crawford. Hope you can find a copy. At least now you know the name of someone who sang it.

I saw your posting on the Internet. What song is it that you would like to hear? I go to a Vineyard here in Augusta. I am aware of the availability of some of these songs as MP3s.

If you are not aware of it, there are some CDs (4) that are like the "greatest hits of the Vineyard" that can be purchased, as well. I could see if our bookstore has the one that you want. I used to run the Vineyard Christian Bookstore at my local Vineyard Church.
