Reviewed by Suzie Brock
The latest album from the award-winning vocal group featuring a selection of extremely well-arranged ancient hymns and modern worship songs, it offers contemplative songs such as "How Deep The Father's Love For Us", and great gospel tinged renditions of "Standing On The Promises" and "Glory To His Name". Particularly worth a mention are the two outstanding and humbling songs, "Unredeemed" and "Depth Of Mercy", the latter being an emotional re-write of the original Wesley lyrics with a fitting chorus added. Throughout the whole album the standard of the lead vocals and harmonies is very high, with every song being touching in a different way. Piano is featured heavily in the arrangements which are refreshingly contemporary. Selah's personnel have changed considerably down the years but they retain a slick professionalism and a winning way of mixing old hymns and new material.
