The unprecedented success of Randy Travis' RISE AND SHINE and its trademark #1 single 'Three Wooden Crosses' has garnered the attention of the world. RISE AND SHINE has become one of Christian music's most successful albums in 2003 consistently in Soundscan's top 10. The November 11 release of WORSHIP and FAITH is poised to expand on Randy Travis' recent success with this collection of beloved worship standards and classic hymns. The all-acoustic album is superbly produced with bluegrass/country instrumentation and Travis' unmistakable voice. With 20 tracks in all, you won't find a better combination of Christian music on your shelf! You will love traditional hymns like 'Just A Closer Walk With Thee', 'Blessed Assurance' and 'How Great Thou Art' which are the perfect match for Randy's baritone. It's the more modern worship songs on the project like 'You Are Worthy Of My Praise', 'Open The Eyes Of My Heart' and 'Above All' that are the most pleasant surprise with fiddle, mandolin, guitar and acoustic-bass giving new life to these songs of praise. Third Day's Mac Powell makes a guest appearance on 'Love Lifted Me', one of the album's highlights.Word, CD.
