Chris and Jennie are worship leaders at Ichthus Christian Fellowship in London and this latest set is made up of six original worship songs, written for their congregation, produced by Athlete's bass player Carry Willetts. It is a meditative EP with a mellow feel to the songs, with intriguingly no drummer or bass player on the recording! The opening two tracks, "See Him High Upon The Cross" and "Wonder Of The Cross", are some of the stronger ones here. The tempo picks up a little on the "Behold The Lamb Of God", which closes the album. The harmonies are nicely interwoven and create an anthemic feel. It may not be the most groundbreaking record but the songs flow nicely enough and the lyrics are honest and accessible. This could well be used as a tool to aid quiet prayer and meditation.
