NOTE: Lyrics to
the songs are included (for most of the songs) in the CD insert.
The message inside the CD cover reads... Fervent
singing is enhanced by tunes that reach down to touch the affections and awaken
the recessed emotions of the heart. Such is true of the music of Ireland. Its
cultural style, uniquely developed over the centuries, has been generously
passed on to the world to enrich our lives. The songs in this recording are in
an Irish style and have been used in sacred services. We have been privileged to
see their effect in the ministry. Their dynamic however, is not found in the
tune alone, but in the Biblical, life-giving message that communicates the love
of God through His Son Jesus Christ. He went to a cross, bore our sins, died an
ignominious death, was buried, and rose victoriously over the grave three days
later. His offer of eternal life is free, unearned, and available to all who
believe. How can we not passionately sing about Him who is our hope and
salvation, source of joy, and power in living? The pathos of this music simply
enhances the power of its message!
