Matthew West is one of the top players in Contemporary Christian music. I was excited to find an arrangement that took advantage of the choral sound while creating a contemporary feel with full orchestra. Great text with more substance than expected in a contemporary praise song. Nimble syncopation with a 40 voice choir is the challenge, but once they feel it, they will love it. This requires an outstanding Tenor soloist that can command the sanctuary.
