There's too many singers and groups recording worship music nowadays, but not nearly enough worship artists engaging in the act of adoration with their craft. Art is, after all, a viable expression of worship, and thankfully, Rita Springer does it very well. Since her Floodgate debut in 2000, Springer has been turning heads with her potent alto voice and her no-holds-barred brand of passionate worship, a music prophetess of sorts who wears her heart for God on her sleeve.
Her first studio album in three years,
But it's not during these mountaintop moments that Springer shines the brightest. It's really the subtleties of her music that make it truly special, like the frailty of her voice in the prayer "O God of Mine," the time signature change in the middle of "You Are Good," or even the way she reinterprets other people's tunes (Delirious' "Rain Down"). Of the few covers, her tender rendition of the Vineyard tune "More Than a Friend" is breathtaking, as is the majority of the softer selections.
Once again, Springer has succeeded at crafting an album that interweaves worship and artistry with vulnerability and simplicity, in a way that proves that she might as well be the best-kept secret in worship music.
