Subtitled '50 Songs & Hymns From Today's Bestselling Songbook', this is a good value triple CD of songs written or adapted between 1998 and 2003, presenting a showcase of contemporary worship leaders from around the world but mainly Australia, New Zealand, the US and the UK. Some worship leaders may wish to add their choice of these songs to their repertoire and also buy the songbook. Most people's CD library will be enhanced by the presence of such a collection of songs of intimacy and praise, especially as they come from the original artists and songwriters themselves. Examples are “Befriended” (Matt Redman), “Take Us To The River” (Robin Mark), “All Of Us” (Chris Tomlin) and “From The Rising Of The Sun” (Viola Grafstrom).
