简介

The songs center around the theme of the close love and trust between God and His children. The lyrics are old, but Renita's arrangements are new and creative, bringing fresh meaning to these treasured lyrics. An all-acoustic track provides the tasteful and intimate backdrop for Renita’s clear soprano voice. "This collection of beautiful arrangements will bring an atmosphere of worship into your home." (Aletha Hinthorn, Director of Women Alive Ministries and the Come to the Fire Conferences) Kim McLean, grammy-nominated songwriter describes the CD as "powerful and beautiful." There are a variety of musical styles on the album. Renita says, "Each lyric speaks to me in a different way. Some are so classic and sacred, like 'Holy, Holy, Holy' and some are a little gritty, like 'Grace Greater Than Our Sin,' which deals face to face with the earthy ugliness of our own culpability. All of the songs come to me with a specific articulation of musical style." "Jesus, Lover of My Soul" is a newly-composed melody that has a Celtic feel. The "Grace Greater than Our Sin" has a Memphis-blues feel. The "Washed in the Blood Medley" is a down-by-the-baptism-creek bluegrass arrangement. "I Will Arise and Go to Jesus" has an Appalachian feel with lots of acoustic stringed instrumentation. "Living By Faith" is a happy jazz waltz. "Everlasting Arms" has a pop ballad feel. "Give Me Jesus" and "Holy, Holy, Holy" have a more classical feel. Be sure to sample more than one track! The CD is a journey of worship beginning with coming to God from out of our sin and weariness, through the walk of faith and trust in Jesus, and on to arriving at the eternal throne and joining our voices with the eternal voices of praise around the throne. The CD is a call to enter this journey. To come like a little child and find that God is a good and loving Heavenly Father, ready to receive us with open EVERLASTING ARMS.
