Jeremy Riddle’s latest CD opens with “Christ Is Risen,” a song celebrating the resurrection and challenging believers to go tell the world. “Bless His Name,” an album standout, is a clarion call to believers: “Come, let us sing for joy / And let us shout aloud to our King / Come, let us worship God / Lifting holy hands / Bless His name” The heartfelt ballad “As Above, So Below” examines what we struggle with on earth then pleads directly to the Father in Heaven to come and to let His kingdom come. “Among the Poor” was inspired by the revelation that worship is more about ministering to others. “To Be Like You” carries a lighthearted melody but with a cry to be changed to “reflect the God I know.” “Prayer for the Church” is a timely and much-needed song for the church today: “We’re praying no more compromises / No more moral crisis / Tonight may she move and act as You / No more small divisions / No more lack of wisdom / Tonight may she move and act as You.” Believers individually and collectively with their churches should sing this prayer. Riddle’s melodies and thoughtful lyrics will ushers listeners into the presence of God, but they will also gain fresh understanding and insight as they worship. Click here to preorder this CD.
