Worship leaders this time are Brian Doerksen (previously in this series with 'Light The Fire Again') and the highly gifted Loralee Thiessen. I was asked to do the review of TTFH 21 and not everything I said was complimentary but I have been blessed in receiving 'Faithful Father'. I think one of the strengths of this album is that it uses no fewer than 12 music/lyrics writers/co-writers or lead/solo vocalists together with the Pacific Worship School Choir. The team have a great time with the Celtic feel of "Jesus Is Coming Again". There's also a real party on their invitation to "Hop On The Bus". Brian prays "Revival Fire" specifically for America - "From the Pacific to Atlantic coast, we need the fire of the Holy Ghost." He also chooses to remix one old song, "The Love Of God" by FH Lehman. I have a liking for Brian's "I Love The View From Here" with Karen Beasse (I think she sounds like Trish Morgan) singing one of the verses but perhaps my favourite track is the soulful "Mystery" by Brian and Philip Janz (producer) with Loralee on vocal. I've mentioned preferences and I'm sure you'll be able to pick out your own gems.
