As a worship leader, it has recently become difficult to find compelling new songs with broad appeal for my congregation. There seems to be a creative drought, which might be partly due to decreased output from Vineyard Music Group, a label whose name was once synonymous with "excellence" in worship music. Using the motto "Fresh … New" to promote their more recent CD resources, Vineyard can still thankfully be counted on for original songs, as opposed to routine covers.
However, if the mediocre selections represented on
Marie Barnett's "Fall on Your Mercy" is the best on the album—nearly as dramatic and passionate as her signature worship song "Breathe," though it's hardly fresh and new considering it comes from her 2001 indie album. There's a fair acoustic folk rendition of "What a Friend We Have in Jesus" that crisply bustles along like a steam train, and the title track is a simple hymn pleasantly orchestrated by Keith Getty ("In Christ Alone") and sung by Kelly Carpenter ("Draw Me Close"). It's good that Vineyard is still operating to build up the church, but this is not one of their better offerings.
