This 20 song compilation from Survivor Records is as accomplished as you might expect, given the level of quality and experience contained within their fold. As ever, there is a strong contingent of worship heavyweights on show with the likes of Matt Redman ("God Of Our Yesterdays" and "My Soul Is Complete"), Brenton Brown ("Adoration") and Cathy Burton ("Choose A Hallelujah" and "Great And Glorious") all reporting in for duty whilst Belfast-based worship leader Johnny Parks kicks off the proceedings with the thunderous "Brand New Day". Elsewhere, less familiar names such as Andreana Arganda and Ben Cantelon are given a chance to shine with their respective contributions "The Name Of The Lord Is To Be Praised" and "You Are" measuring up admirably to the work of their more recognized counterparts. Thankfully, Survivor have resisted the temptation to regurgitate older, more familiar material and have instead gone for relatively new songs from their artists' more recent albums.
