This CD is brilliant. Every song is quality. All the songs have been recorded live from his US tour.

Below is a review of all the tracks:

1 - Blessed Be Your Name - Great track. Won a Dove Award in America for Best Song. 5/5

2 - Holy Moment - A worship track praising God. 3.5/5

3 - Once Again - Beautiful song which really sticks in your mind. Unfortunately, in my opinion, there is better versions of this song on other Matt Redman CD's because it is quite quick on this album. But it is still very decent. 4/5

4 - Heart Of Worship - This is what Matt is all about, he has the heart of worship and really tries to spread that to others and he is succeeding. He may not be the best singer or guitarist but he has the heart of worship which many Christian bands/singers miss and that is what makes him so good. Brilliant chords, beautiful lyrics. 5/5

5 - Let My Words Be Few - Not many words in this song as the title suggests but it is a very good and simple song and great for just committing your life to god. 4/5

6 - Lord, Let Your Glory Fall - Another simple song and it is a good version of the song on this album. 3.5/5

7 - Undignified - Very simple song with 4 repeated chords over and over again and there are very few words but it is such a brilliant and happy song that it works. Listen to the song because it is very good but don't try playing it in a band because it is boring going through the D G D A chords. 4/5

8 - Better Is One Day - This is sung with Charlie Hall. In my opinion one of the worse songs on the album but still very good. 3/5

9 - Facedown - This is a newer song from Matt and although I haven't heard it as much as some of the others it is very good and I think could fall into the same category as Once Again and Heart of Worship. It is very prayerful and is definitely a grower. 4.5/5

10 - I Will Offer Up My Life - Following on from Facedown, this song is another beautiful worship song enabling you to give your heart up to God. 4/5

11 - Let Everything That Has Breath - I like this song. It is upbeat and the words are so simple and true. 4.5/5

12 - The Father's Song - Slow song and another newer one from Matt. Not quite in the class of Facedown but still brilliant with just a piano in the background. 4/5

I hope that this review helps people in their decision to purchase this product. It is really very good. Other worship artists who are very good are Delirious, Tim Hughes, Hillsong and for another brilliant song listen to I Can Only Imagine by Mercy Me - pure class.
