If the essence of good Messianic praise music is its ability to capture the Old Testament sense of reliance on and adoration of a most holy God who is removed from but not disinterested in the travails of an earthly life, and to tell crafted stories of rescue and release and of wonders and fabulous miracles, then this collection ticks all the right boxes and qualifies as superb. A whole raft of writers is credited in the sleevenotes, and they have brought their instrumentals, chants and Psalms to be with their songs in both English and Hebrew to produce a most listenable experience. Some of the tracks are reflective but they are never downbeat or self-obsessed, and a typically toe-tapping and uplifting rhythm is never very far away. The huge variety of instruments heard adds to the spectacular rainbow of sounds that this is. For the staunch evangelical Christian there is even woven into this almost three-hour compilation of infectious rhythms and twisting and turning melodies a number of songs that recognise Jesus as being the liberator awaited by the Israelites. What more could you want?
