His Faithfulness: The Poetry of Amy Carmichael

Wow.

Ten minutes after my brother handed me this CD I am on here blogging about it. Wow!

His Faithfulness: The Poetry of Amy Carmichael is set to music by Jim Spencer. He says that "it has been our intention to handle these songs in such a way as to allow you to reflect upon the depth and richness of Amy's writings and so to look upon the testimony contained therein of the greatness of the glory of God in Christ." From the website:

His Faithfulness is a refreshingly reflective musical offering combining the rich poetry of Amy Carmichael, 1867-1951, (Irish missionary to India, read more), and the stirring melodies of modern-day songwriter Jim Spencer (Reason for the Rain - Word Records, I'm Gonna Lift Up My Eyes - Lynda Randle). From the intimate piano/cello arrangement of Rose from Brier to the soaring strings of On Calvary’s Cross, there is a wonderful cohesiveness to this project that provides the sense that you are not simply listening to ten individual songs but that you are gazing upon one grand tapestry; the testimony of God’s great faithfulness in the life of one of His children that will resonate with all.

Elisabeth Elliot, author of A Chance to Die, the biography of Amy Carmichael, said this: "May your listening of Amy Carmichael set to music by Jim Spencer spur you on to read Amy's books which will feed your spirit!"
