Reviewed by Adrian Cherrill

With the number of multi-disc worship compilations on the market steadily rising, it wasn't going to be long before Integrity Music took a stab at a three-disc set of its own. There are some classic songs here; Tim Hughes' "Here I Am To Worship", Darlene Zschech's "Shout To The Lord" and Brian Doerksen's "Come Now Is The Time" are all worthy contenders, among a number of others, though unless you really know your singers, you can't tell who sings many of the songs because none of them are listed. The three discs are divided into themes, 'Timeless Classics', 'Enduring Worship' and 'Modern Classics', of which the second one is probably the best of the three, though most of the up tempo material reverts to a Celtic acoustic style so the whole thing never seems to get going. The first is all early Integrity material (which now sounds rather dated), the third sounds mostly like an up-to-date version of the first bar a couple songs. It's almost certainly aimed at an American market rather than a UK one, and rather than being what the title tries to suggest, it's really just feels like a plug for Integrity's back catalogue.
