long time coming
a real snapshot of what the amazing glory revealed tour was all about. new arrangements and collaborations of songs from the original record, plus a new hymn medly and the tour message from david nasser. all that for 5 bucks? what a deal
Needs More Songs
Great cd as it is but it's even better live. I just wish that they would have put more songs on it
Glory Review single - Highly Recommended
Given the ubiquity of contemporary Christian music (CCM) ever since the rock-and-roll inspired Jesus Freak movement of the 1960s, and the number of churches now strained by the "worship wars" in the last two decades, it's easy to lose sight of the fact that the singing of hymns during Protestant worship was once itself a highly controversial practice in some quarters. In the early days of the Episcopal Church (and also in the Church of England) psalms in meter were sung in place of hymns. Full choral services and choral celebration of the Eucharist, including the singing of canticles and the psalter in the Gregorian chant style seems to have begun around 1842. The practice was at the heart of the Ritualist Controversy in the 1870s, which resulted in schism and ecclesial trials of bishops and priests for introducing such threatening innovations. I know clergy friends who are today encountering similarly fellowship-threatening resistance to their efforts to introduce contemporary Christian songs in congregational worship settings. But there is an important difference in the current struggle. The 19th century "innovations" were merely a return to the ancient habit of singing the liturgy, and the lyrics consisted of Holy Scripture (usually psalms). And thus, just as in ancient Israel, worshippers internalized doctrine through the singing of Scripture that corresponded to the drama of the liturgy they were enacting. In contrast, the lyrics of much CCM (particularly "praise music") often shows little direct evidence of an encounter with Scripture, reflecting instead original expressions of adoration lacking in theological depth. Glory Revealed: The Word of God Worship therefore represents a refreshing recovery of the ancient habit of singing Scripture, for all of the songs on the album were written expressly for the purpose of helping Christians internalize large blocks of Scripture. While this review will focus on just the title song of the CD, "Glory Revealed." the entire CD gets five stars on my iTunes playlists. Theology One of my favorite ways to center my mind in worship on long car trips (when I am alone!), is to crank up the volume of "Glory Revealed" and sing along with it several times in a row. It's one of my favorite Christian songs, and I never tire of it. That said, I quibbled initially with David Nasser's lyrics given that the stated aim for his project was to help Christians memorize Scripture. A tag on the CD says that the song is based on Isaiah 40:3-5, and so one presumes that the Scripture Nasser wants Christians to learn is from the prophet Isaiah. But Nasser does not maintain the integrity of the text. Comparing a few translations of Isaiah 40:3 makes this clear.
