This project started with a Monday night prayer meeting at Calvary Chapel Costa Mesa. Since 1989 thousands of people have come to hear the Gospel and the Harvest Worship Band has formed an integral part of that outreach. Softer in character than Hillsongs or Brownsville but with a strong evangelistic anointing there is much on this recording that would bless other churches. The title track kind of gently and almost imperceptibly grabs at you heart while “You Lord are Faithful” is one of those songs that seems like you know it already, praising God for his faithfulness in such a simple yet profound way. The Chris Falson standard, “I Walk By Faith”, is handled really well. I haven’t heard a better version. “Be Still” by J Hanz Ives is a gorgeous worship song and should be sung everywhere, and Rick Founds’ “I Love Your Grace” says it all. Much of the instrumentation and production reminds of ‘Songs From The Loft’ – one of the all time great worship projects. This record deserves to be very big. Peter Smith
