5.0 out of 5 stars OK Dove Awards people - take notice of this new album!, October 20, 2009

Sojourn Community Church in Louisville KY's Germantown neighborhood, has a refreshing approach to contemporary Christian music. Blessed with a congregation loaded with talented artists and musicians, Executive Producer, Mike Cosper and his staff took 11 Isaac Watts hymns, rich in liturgy, and updated their music and lyrics for contemporary listeners. This album is great in every way. The updated lyrics maintain their biblical focus, while the music is pleasantly on the contemporary side. This is a church project with about 35 people on this CD as either musicians or vocalists. These updated hymns are used regularly in Sojourn's church services along with many other original and traditional songs. It is just good music to listen to!

It should be noted that this CD, Over the Grave - The Hymns of Isaac Watts, Volume 1, was produced by Sojourn; writing, arranging, recording, mixing, and even the album cover and inserts were produced by the church staff and congregants. Universal's Bonded Records picked this project up after it was completed. The professional level of this production is outstanding. The good news is they are working on Volume 2.

5.0 out of 5 stars Breathtaking, I was speechless, May 30, 2010

This review is from: Over the Grave (Audio CD)

I wasn't sure what to expect when I ordered this CD- I had never heard of Sojourn (I live in Vancouver, BC Canada...a long way from Kentucky!!). I popped it into the computer while I did some other work and as it began to play, ...I actually had to stop working because of the sense of worship and presence I felt from the words and music. I can't explain it, but I was speechless for a long time. I think I listened to the whole CD 2 or 3 times in a row late one summer night. I wept as I listened. This is beyond a doubt the most powerful, inspiring and worshipful CD I have ever heard. The rich textured music and deeply moving words sink deep into your soul.

Wherever you listen to this CD is holy ground.

Sojourn does it again with this album. Great lyrics (modified from Isaac Watts), and great music. Love it!
