Elim Sound further expand their musical reach with 'New' album
BRITAIN'S renowned worship team Elim Sound have released their second
family worship album. 'NEW: Family Worship' contains three songs drawn
from the wider Elim family, five brand new ones written for the
project, and two songs from the Elim Sound album, 'One'. In opening up the
project to the wider Elim family, Elim Sound asked families, children and
songwriters to send in songs. With over 40 songs submitted, the team
chose: "Gifts", written and sung by 10 year old Hiyab Gazae from
Coventry Elim, "Jesus Be The Leader", written and sung by son and mum
Reuben and Laura Rook from Portsmouth Elim, and "Let Your Light
Shine", written by mum of three, Hannah De Lisle, sung by 12 year old
Rubi Cook.
The team have used a number of new voices for
this project including 15 year old rapper Walter Taylor from Cardiff,
Jonathan Owusu-Yianomah and Rebecca Scott from London, Karen Felix
from Yeovil and Catherine Browne from Northern Ireland. They also
assembled a choir of 40 children from a number of Elim churches in
London and a choir of 19 from Northern Ireland. 'New' also features Elim Sound's regular
vocalists, including Sam Blake and Ian Yates.
